Course Overview

Exemption from federal income taxes is one of the privileges enjoyed by the vast majority of not-for-profits (NFPs). For charitable organizations, tax-exempt status also provides eligibility to receive tax-deductible contributions from donors. Failure to comply with federal laws and IRS reporting requirements can result in significant penalties and excise taxes at best and loss of tax-exempt status at worst.

Annual financial reports must be submitted to the IRS and the California Franchise Tax Board to maintain a nonprofit organization’s tax-exempt status. The board of directors should review the corporation’s annual IRS and State filings before submitting them. The nonprofit should hire a professional accountant to help implement a financial management system, addressing issues such as dual-signature requirements on bank accounts, regular review of monthly statements by the board, and an annual audit.

This CPE course reviews issues to be considered to maintain tax exemption for a non-profit entity in California State.

Following are the major topics covered in this Online CPE Webinar:

1.   Changes in Activity, Disclosure, and Substantiation

  • Public charity versus private foundation status
  • Disclosure requirements
  • Substantiation requirements
  • Lobbying and Political Campaigns

2.   Intermediate Sanctions and Compensation

  • Disqualified persons and deemed disqualified persons
  • Rebuttable presumption of Reasonableness, Comparability Data
  • Compensation Initiative and Employment Tax Audits
  • Compensation Planning

3.   California and Other State Matters

  • Securing state tax exemption
  • Suspended Exempt Entities and Consequences
  • Revocation and reinstating the exemption
