Not-for-profits making $50,000 or less
Don't lose your tax-exempt status over a missed 990-N.
If your nonprofit brought in $50,000 or less, the IRS wants a short annual e-Postcard — not a full return. 990epost turns it into a five-minute checklist in plain English.
Who the 990-N is for
Small organizations deserve a filing process that feels manageable.
Most small tax-exempt organizations can use the 990-N when annual gross receipts are normally $50,000 or less. Private foundations and some organization types follow different rules.

Consecutive missed years
The deadline matters—even when there is no late-filing fee.
Failing to file for three years in a row automatically revokes federal tax-exempt status. The 990-N is generally due on the 15th day of the fifth month after your tax year closes.

Clear answers before you file.
What is Form 990-N?
It is the IRS electronic notice for most small tax-exempt organizations whose gross receipts are normally $50,000 or less.
When is it due?
Generally, the 15th day of the fifth month after your tax year ends. A calendar-year organization is usually due May 15.
What if we miss a year?
There is no monetary penalty for filing late, but missing three consecutive years causes automatic revocation of tax-exempt status.
What if receipts are over $50,000?
You may need Form 990-EZ or Form 990 instead. We help confirm the right filing path before you begin.
