Get answers to the most common questions about our nonprofit tax services services.
Form 990 is the annual informational return required by the IRS for tax-exempt organizations. Most 501(c)(3) organizations must file Form 990, 990-EZ, or 990-N depending on their gross receipts and total assets. Failure to file for three consecutive years results in automatic revocation of tax-exempt status.
UBIT applies when a nonprofit earns income from a trade or business that is regularly carried on and not substantially related to its exempt purpose. Common examples include advertising revenue, rental income from debt-financed property, and certain sponsorship arrangements. We analyze your revenue streams to identify and properly report any UBIT exposure.
