What is Form 990 (Long Form)?

Annual E-filing for Nonprofit & Tax Exempt Organizations

Form 990 is an annual information return typically filed by organizations with gross receipts that are more than or equal to $200,000 or total assets more than or equal to $500,000. Other organizations such as non-exempt charitable trusts and section 527 political organizations file this form also to receive recognition of exemption from federal income tax under 501(a).
