About IRS 501(c)(3)
Auto-Revocation
Auto-revocation is the process in which the IRS revokes a nonprofit’s tax-exempt, 501(c) status for failure to file Form 990 for three consecutive years.
If your organization’s 501(c)(3) status has been revoked, here’s what it means to you:
- Your nonprofit is no longer considered charitable
- Donations to your nonprofit are no longer tax-deductible to the donor
- Your nonprofit will now be taxed like a for-profit company
- You may have serious, expensive state consequences, as well
The ramifications for those revoked couldn’t be more critical. Verify your nonprofit’s 501(c)(3) status by clicking here.
