IRS sets workshops for small, mid-sized nonprofits

The Internal Revenue Service will hold three one-day workshops in King of Prussia on October 6th, 7th, and 8th to help small and mid-sized tax-exempt organizations in Pennsylvania comply with their tax obligations and maintain their tax-exempt status.

The workshops are designed for board members, officers, volunteers and staff of these organizations and for the tax preparers and stakeholders who work with them.  IRS revenue agents will lead the workshops which will cover the “nuts and bolts” of tax compliance for exempt organizations.

Workshop topics include an in-depth discussion of activities that can jeopardize 501(c)(3) status, unrelated business income, gaming and employment issues. Particular emphasis will be given to explaining the revised Form 990 and 990-EZ annual information returns that tax-exempt organizations submit to the IRS.

The workshops will be held at the Radisson Hotel Valley Forge, 1160 First Avenue in King of Prussia.  The workshop cost is $45 per person and includes a handbook and relevant IRS forms and publications. Pre-registration is required. For more information or to register, click here.
