Asked on Jan 20, 2025

Can a nonprofit organization with a pending 501(c)(3) application receive tax-deductible donations?

I am part of a nonprofit organization that has submitted a 501(c)(3) application to the IRS, but we are still awaiting approval. In the meantime, we have been receiving donations from individuals and corporations who want to support our cause. We would like to know if these donors can claim tax deductions for their contributions, considering that our application is still pending and we have not yet obtained official tax-exempt status.

Answered Jan 21, 2025

Hello! Contributions are not tax deductible now but will be if your application is approved. You must inform the donors that the application is pending and that contributions are not tax-deductible at this time. After the application is approved, you must request retroactive tax deductibility. If you have additional questions, let me know. Best regards.

What are the steps involved in forming a nonprofit entity?

I am currently involved in a community project aimed at providing education and resources for underprivileged children. We have been operating as an informal group for some time now, but we feel that it's time to formalize our efforts by establishing a nonprofit entity. However, we are unsure about the legal requirements and steps involved in forming a nonprofit organization, including the necessary paperwork, tax-exempt status, and any potential liabilities. We want to ensure that we are following the correct procedures and fulfilling all legal obligations, so we are seeking guidance on the process of nonprofit entity formation.

Answered Sep 17, 2024

Hello! Thank you so much for asking this question. So the process is involved, but here are the six basic steps: 1. Define your mission, develop a strategic plan, and choose a unique name for your non-profit. 2. Assemble a qualified board of directors, ensuring compliance with the 49% rule and prioritizing independence. 3. Prepare and file the articles of incorporation, clearly outlining the organization's purpose and dissolution plan. 4. Draft comprehensive bylaws to guide the organization's governance and operations. 5. Obtain an Employer Identification Number (EIN) and fulfill registration requirements with the CA Attorney General's Registry of Charitable Trusts and the Secretary of State. 6. Apply for federal tax exemption using IRS Form 1023 or 1023-EZ and complete CA FTB Form 3500 or 3500A for state tax exemption. Best of luck in your endeavor to provide these things to the kids!
