Obtaining Nonprofit Tax Status

Under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, your tax exempt status may be recognized by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). We represent churches filing for nonprofit status. To ensure that contributions to your tax exempt organization are recognized by the internal revenue service, it is advisable for you to file an Application For Recognition Of Tax Exempt Status. The Internal Revenue Service will review your application to ensure that your organization complies with the requirements of Section 501(c) of the Internal Revenue Code. If it is determined that your organization meets the requirements, the Internal Revenue Service will issue a letter recognizing the tax exempt status of your organization. It is advisable to consult competent legal counsel prior to submitting your application.
