May 15th is the Deadline for filing your organization's 990

Just a friendly reminder that May 15th (which is on a Sunday), so technically May 16th is the deadline for submitting your 990 to the IRS. If your 990 isn't quite finished, don't panic, it's easy to request an extension.

Here is the web address for IRS Form 8868, Application for Automatic Extension of Time To File an Exempt Organization Return. https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8868.pdf

Form 8868 is very simple to complete, you don't even need an accountant. It is an automatic 6-month extension, which will give you the extra time to complete your 990.

You can mail the form to the IRS, but be sure it's postmarked by the 15th.
