Most nonprofits and charities must keep books and records for a minimum of six years from the end of the last tax year to which they relate. This retention period will be extended if returns are late-filed or if there is a notice of objection or appeal underway.
Most nonprofit tax-exempt organizations are required to file annual tax returns with the IRS. Even though most tax-exempt nonprofit organizations do not pay federal taxes (that is what âtax-exemptâ means), most do have to file an informational return with the IRS.This annual reporting return is called a Form 990.f an organization fails to file Form 990 three years in a row, the IRS will automatically revoke its tax-exempt status. Since 2011, more than 500,000 nonprofits across the country automatically lost their tax-exempt status for this reason.
