IRS POSTS OREGON NONPROFITS ON REVOCATION LIST
 
The IRS recently posted a list of 3,733 Oregon nonprofits with revoked
tax-exempt status stemming from a  failure to file annual returns.
Visit
http://www.irs.gov/charities/article/0,,id=240099,00.html to review
the
list. If you discover your nonprofit listed, visit the Council of
Non-Profits to learn about options:
http://www.councilofnonprofits.org/revocation . The site offers a tip
sheet on automatic revocation and what to do if your organization’s
tax-exempt status was revoked. It also features a podcast that
explains
a nonprofit’s obligation to file an annual return and how revocation
is automatic if it does not file for three consecutive years. 
Nonprofits that re-apply may write a letter to the IRS requesting
reinstatement of their tax-exempt status retroactive to the date of
their original tax-exempt recognition, but the IRS will grant that
request only if it determines that there was 'reasonable cause' for
the
nonprofit to have missed the filing deadlines. Visit
http://www.irs.gov/charities/article/0,,id=237760,00.html for more on
'reasonable cause' and to learn about 'retroactive reinstatement' see
http://www.irs.gov/charities/article/0,,id=221593,00.html .
