Scheduling Conflicts: Which Schedule Should I File?
|If you’ve ever filed a Form 990 or Form 990-EZ before, you know there’s a neat little thing called “Schedules” that are attached to your return which provide necessary additional information when filing. There are a total of 16 Schedules available for Form 990 and 8 for Form 990-EZ in which the correct Schedules are filed by a respective organization depending on its activities.
