Arizona Tribune - The Biggest Form 990 Deadline of the Year (May 15) is Here: Tax990 Delivers Stress-Free Last-Minute Filing for Nonprofits

ROCK HILL, SC / ACCESS Newswire / May 12, 2025 / As the May 15 deadline approaches, thousands of nonprofit organizations across the country are making their final preparations to file Form 990.

Tax990, an IRS-authorized e-file provider, supports organizations during this crucial period with reliable, last-minute filing options and dedicated support to ensure compliance and peace of mind.

Who needs to file by May 15?

Tax-exempt organizations that operate on a calendar year, from January 1 through December 31, must file their annual tax return with the IRS by May 15, 2025. This includes most public charities, private foundations, and other tax-exempt entities.

Forms due, penalties, and extensions

The May 15 deadline applies to a range of forms, including:

• Form 990-N (e-Postcard): For small nonprofits with gross receipts of $50,000 or less.

• Form 990-EZ: For nonprofits with gross receipts under $200,000 and total assets under $500,000.

• Form 990: Required for organizations with gross receipts of $200,000 or more or total assets of $500,000 or more.

• Form 990-PF: Filed by all private foundations.

• Form 990-T: Required for any exempt organization with $1,000 or more in gross income from unrelated business activities.

• CA Form 199: This applies to California nonprofits that obtained tax-exempt status from the Franchise Tax Board (FTB).

Failing to file on time can result in daily penalties, and organizations that don't file for three consecutive years risk automatic revocation of their tax-exempt status. For nonprofits that need additional time, Form 8868 provides an automatic 6-month extension.

• Complimentary Extension Requests: If an organization needs more time, they can pay for their 990 upfront and file an 8868 at no additional charge and get an instant 6-month extension.

• Retransmit Rejected Returns: If the IRS rejects a return due to an error, Tax990 allows clients to fix the issue and retransmit at no added cost.

• No-Cost Amendments: If errors are discovered after IRS acceptance, clients can file up to 3 amendments at no additional charge.
