| + | Form 990-N (e-Postcard): Information Reported | ||
| + | |||
| + | What information do I need to provide on the e-Postcard? | ||
| + | |||
| + | The e-Postcard is easy to complete. All you need is the following information: | ||
| + | |||
| + | Organization’s legal name –<br> | ||
| + | An organization’s legal name is the organization’s name as it appears in the certificate of incorporation or the organization’s application for Federal tax-exempt status, unless a request was previously submitted to the IRS to have the name officially changed. | ||
| + | Any other names your organization uses – If the organization is known by or uses other names to refer to the organization as a whole (and not to its programs and activities); commonly referred to as Doing-Business-As (DBA) names, they should be listed. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Organization’s mailing address – The mailing address is the current mailing address used by the organization. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Organization’s website address (if you have one). | ||
| + | |||
| + | Organization’s employer identification number (EIN) –<br> | ||
| + | Every tax-exempt organization must have an EIN, sometimes referred to as a Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), even if it does not have employees. The EIN is a unique number that identifies the organization to the Internal Revenue Service. Your organization would have acquired an EIN by filing a Form SS-4 prior to requesting tax-exemption. <br> | ||
| + | The EIN is a 9-digit number and the format of the number is NN-NNNNNNN (for example: 00-1234567). <br> | ||
| + | If you do not know your EIN, you may be able to find it on the organization’s bank statement, application for Federal tax-exempt status, or prior year return..<br> | ||
| + | Please note that the EIN is not your tax-exempt number. That term generally refers to a number assigned by a state agency that identifies organizations as exempt from state sales and use taxes.<br> | ||
| + | If you do not have an EIN, see the Instructions for Form SS-4 for different ways to apply for an EIN. DO NOT use the EIN of a parent or other organization.<br> | ||
| + | |||
| + | Name and address of a principal officer of your organization –<br> | ||
| + | Usually president, vice president, secretary, or treasurer – often specified in the organization’s by-laws. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Organization’s annual tax year –<br> | ||
| + | Like any taxpayer, exempt organizations must keep books and reports and file returns based on an annual accounting period called a tax year. A tax year is usually 12 consecutive months that can be either calendar year or fiscal year and is often specified in the organization’s by-laws. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Answers to the following questions: | ||
| + | |||
| + | Are your gross receipts still normally $25,000 or less? | ||
| + | |||
| + | Has your organization terminated or gone out of business? | ||
