IRS Form 990 Collection
Scope and Contents
This collection contains client copies and public inspection copies of IRS Form 990, Return of Organization Exempt from Income Tax. Form 990 returns are arranged chronologically. The folder for each year may also contain related documents such as Forms 8868 and 7004 regardings extensions to file; and IRS correspondence regarding incorrectly assessed late filing fees. Note, this related material was originally filed with Form 990s where available in one of the collections processed into the single Form 990 Collection; other related documents may be found in other Finance / Accounting collections.
There is not a client and public inspection copy for all years, and the copy(s) in the collection are noted if known; for some early 990s it is unclear which copy they are, though it is likely that they are the public inspection copy.
