990 FAQs and Preparation Checklist
Published 03/07/2024

The Form 990 is the face of your organization, and filing it is not just a requirement. It is an opportunity to show that your organization is so well run it deserves greater financial support. Besides being done on time, your Form 990 needs to be done accurately to avoid stiff penalties — including loss of state registration and exempt status. In addition, a poorly prepared Form 990 can result in a diminished public image and crippling loss of donations and grants.

Our 990 experts have created this guide to answer common questions you may have and provide a preparation checklist to make sure your Form 990 puts your best foot forward. This resource is meant to serve as a reference for Form 990, and we recommend you reach out to our team of 990 experts for more in-depth answers to any questions you may have.
