The IRS Is Now Accepting 990 Series Forms for 2020
2020 was a challenging year for many nonprofits, but as we put it behind us, meeting your tax-exempt filing requirements should be easy. At ExpressTaxExempt we’re so honored to support the nonprofit sector and we’re proud to announce that we’re accepting 990 series forms for the 2020 tax year.
What is Form 990?
Form 990 is an annual form that tax-exempt organizations file to provide the IRS with all the information they need and remain accountable for their financial activity during the course of the year.
This form is an extremely important part of running a nonprofit as it protects your organization’s tax-exempt status and allows you to release your financial records to the public.
