New IRS Tool Helps Nonprofits Stay Compliant

IRS enhances resources for nonprofit success

Navigating IRS requirements can be challenging for nonprofits, especially when meeting the organization’s mission is paramount. To support nonprofit leaders in this task, the IRS has enhanced and relaunched its nonprofit educational tool.

The newly updated Stay Exempt platform consolidates all IRS educational materials for tax-exempt entities into one easy-to-access location. Previously hosted on a separate website, the resource now lives at IRS.gov/Stay-Exempt and features a modern layout, mobile optimization, and improved navigation.

This redesign ensures nonprofit leaders, board members, and volunteers can more easily find the training and compliance tools they need for managing ongoing responsibilities.

Overview of Stay Exempt

The Stay Exempt platform provides self-paced learning modules, how-to tutorials, and guidance on common compliance topics, including:

• Filing requirements and annual responsibilities
  Tips and checklists to avoid common mistakes in Form 990 filing and ensure timely compliance.
• Compliance best practices
  Learn how to maintain tax-exempt status, including guidance on lobbying limits, public disclosures, and private benefit restrictions.
• Leadership education
  Training designed specifically for nonprofit boards, officers, and volunteers to understand their legal and financial responsibilities.

Stay Exempt can be a valuable tool to help your organization avoid missteps and stay in good standing with the IRS.
