We handle all IRS-related paperwork on your behalf, providing complete services to help your non-profit organization get and preserve its tax-exempt status.
Every year, the IRS mandates that most tax-exempt entities submit Form 990 and its related documents, which must include:
- Income Statement with detailed categories such as donations, salaries, postage, and rent.
- Balance Sheet categorized by cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, etc.
- Functional Expense Statement that allocates all expenses to program services, fundraising, or administrative operations.
- Individual Program Expense Statement that details the costs associated with each program or service, such as seminars or educational campaigns.
