Questions &
Answers
Get answers to the most common questions about our nonprofit compliance services.
Form 990 is the annual information return that tax-exempt organizations must file with the IRS. It reports on your finances, governance, and activities. Most 501(c)(3) organizations with gross receipts over $50,000 must file either Form 990 or 990-EZ.
If an organization fails to file for three consecutive years, the IRS automatically revokes its tax-exempt status. Reinstatement requires a new application and can disrupt funding, donor confidence, and operations.
Yes. We prepare the financial reports and documentation required by grantors, ensure expenditures align with grant budgets, and help your team maintain the records needed for grantor audits.
Absolutely. We help boards implement conflict-of-interest policies, financial oversight procedures, executive compensation review processes, and other governance best practices that satisfy regulators and build donor confidence.
Flat annual fees for Form 990 preparation, state charitable registration, and ongoing advisory, no hourly billing and no surprise invoices. Pricing scales to organization size and complexity, with clear written engagement letters before any work begins.
