IRS E-postcard (Form 990-N)

Many chapters have contacted Headquarters regarding a letter from the IRS. Chapters will be required to visit the IRS website to submit this online only report no later than the 15th day of the 5th month following the close of the chapter's fiscal year. Example: chapter fiscal year ends May 31; e-postcard is due by October 15.

This is a required report for receiving a Secretary's Commendation. Failure to submit this report will result in a chapter losing its tax exempt status and could result in probation.
