  • Do all nonprofits need to file a Form 990?
  • What is the filing deadline?
  • Is the Form 990 an income tax return?
  • Do all nonprofits need to disclose the highest paid employees' salaries?
  • Does the IRS target organizations with accumulated operating reserves for audits?
  • Is my chance for audit greater if I file an extension or e-file?
  • Are all IRS examinations alike?
