39 Washington County Non-Profits could lose Status

39 Washington County non-profit organizations are potentially at risk of losing their non-profit (and sometimes charitable) status if they do not file an annual report or notice. That is according to the National Center for Charitable Statistics at the Urban Institute.

The IRS database for Iowa has over 5,600 affected non-profits, and can be accessed  through the NCCS web site by clicking here.

According to information from the accounting firm Terry Lockridge & Dunn:
"In the past, only tax-exempt organizations with revenues exceeding $25,000 were required to file tax forms.  Beginning in 2007, most tax-exempt organizations, other than churches, were required to file a yearly return or notice with the IRS. If an organization does not file as required for three consecutive years, it automatically loses its tax-exempt status."
The IRS has a web page on the "Automatic Revocation of Tax-Exempt Status for Failure to File Annual Return or Notice - Frequently Asked Questions and Answers."

Nonprofit organizations can complete their Form 990-N (e-Postcard) online with the IRS.

A search today through the IRS database for all Washington County non-profits came up with these 39 records. Some of these entities may already be in the process of filing and completing the required reports.
