It’s a common misconception that if your nonprofit has minimal revenue, tax filings aren’t a priority. But even the smallest organizations have IRS requirements—and skipping them can lead to big problems.
If your nonprofit brings in less than $50,000 a year, you are still required to file the Form 990-N e-Postcard annually. This simple online filing confirms your organization’s continued operation and basic information with the IRS.
Why Filing the 990-N Matters
- It’s fast. The process takes just a few minutes.
- It’s online. You can submit directly through the IRS website—no paper forms required.
- It’s essential. Missing the filing for three consecutive years triggers automatic revocation of your tax-exempt status.
Once revoked, your nonprofit must go through the reinstatement process—a time-consuming, costly, and stressful experience that could impact your ability to operate, receive donations, and maintain public trust.
