Part II

Part II, Line Part II. Organizational Structure
              You must be a corporation, limited liability company, unincorporated association, or trust to be tax exempt under section 501(c)(4). Sole 
              proprietorships, partnerships, or loosely affiliated groups of individuals aren't eligible.
       1      Type of organization and copy of organizing document. Select your type of organization and, before submitting the form, upload a copy of 
              your organizing document (including any amendments) as part of the required attachment.
               
              Corporation. A corporation is an entity organized under a federal or state statute, or a statute of a federally recognized Indian tribal or Alaskan 
              native government
               
              Copy of organizing document (articles of incorporation and any amendments). A corporation's organizing document is its articles of 
              incorporation. 
               
              If you formed under state statute, your articles of incorporation (and any amendments) must show certification of filing. This means your 
              articles show evidence that on a specific date they were filed with and approved by an appropriate state authority. The document must be an 
              exact copy of what is on file with your state. 
               
              If you don't have a copy of your articles of incorporation showing evidence of having been filed and approved by an appropriate state official, 
              you may submit a substitute copy of your articles of incorporation. This substitute copy may be handwritten, typed, printed, or otherwise 
              reproduced. It must be accompanied by a declaration, signed by an officer authorized to sign for you, that it is a complete and correct copy of 
              the articles of incorporation and that it contains all the powers, principles, purposes, functions, and other provisions by which you currently 
              govern yourself.
               
              Limited Liability Company. A limited liability company (LLC) that files its own exemption application is treated as a corporation rather than a 
              partnership. 
               
              Copy of organizing document (articles of organization and operating agreement (if adopted) and any amendments). Instead of 
              articles of incorporation, an LLC's organizing document is its state-approved articles of organization. If it has adopted an operating agreement, 
              then this document is also part of its organizing document. 
               
              If you formed under state statute, your articles of organization (and any amendments) must show certification of filing. This means your articles 
              show evidence that on a specific date they were filed with and approved by an appropriate state authority. The document must be an exact 
              copy of what is on file with your state. 
               
              If you don't have a copy of your articles of organization showing evidence of having been filed and approved by an appropriate state official, 
              you may submit a substitute copy of your articles of organization. This substitute copy may be handwritten, typed, printed, or otherwise 
              reproduced. It must be accompanied by a declaration, signed by an officer authorized to sign for you, that it is a complete and correct copy of 
              the articles of organization and that it contains all the powers, principles, purposes, functions, and other provisions by which you currently 
              govern yourself.
               
              TIP If you’re an LLC and want to be treated as a disregarded entity by a tax-exempt member, don’t file an exemption application. 
               
              Unincorporated Association. An unincorporated association formed under state law must have at least two members who have signed a 
              written document that creates an entity with a specifically defined purpose. 
               
              Copy of organizing document (articles of association or constitution and any amendments). Your organizing document must include 
              the name of the organization, its purpose, the date the document was adopted, and the signatures of at least two individuals. 
               
              If your copy doesn't contain the proper signatures and date of adoption, you may submit a written declaration that states your copy is a 
              complete and accurate copy of the signed and dated original. Your declaration should clearly indicate the original date of adoption.
               
              TIP Bylaws may be considered an organizing document only if they include the required elements listed above.
               
              Trust. A trust may be formed by a trust agreement or declaration of trust. A trust may also be formed through a will. Generally, a trust must be 
              funded with property, such as money, real estate, or personal property.
               
              Copy of organizing document (trust agreement/declaration of trust or will and any amendments). Your trust agreement (and any 
              amendments) must be signed by at least one trustee. 
               
              If your trust agreement copy isn’t signed, you may submit a written declaration that states your copy is a complete and accurate copy of the 
              signed and dated original. Your declaration should clearly indicate the original date that it was signed. 
               
              For trusts created by a will, include a copy of the death certificate or a statement indicating the date of death, and a copy of the relevant 
              portions of the will.
               
              CAUTION! If your trust agreement continues to provide for distributions for non-charitable interests, you won’t qualify for tax-exempt status.

        2      Formation date. The date you enter should be consistent with your organizing document.
               If you’re a corporation, enter the date that your articles of incorporation were filed and approved by the appropriate authority. 
               If you're an LLC, enter the date that the appropriate authority filed your articles of organization or other organizing document. 
               If you're an unincorporated association, enter the date that your organizing document was adopted by the signatures of at least two 
               individuals. 
                If you’re a trust (other than a trust formed by a will), enter the date your trust was funded. If your trust agreement provided for any 
               non-charitable interests, enter the date that non-charitable interests expired. If you were formed by a will, enter the date of death or the date 
               any non-charitable interests expired.
        3      State of formation. Enter the jurisdiction (for instance, the state or the federally recognized tribal government) under the laws of which you 
               were incorporated or otherwise formed. This may not be the place in which you’re physically located. For example, if you’re physically located 
               in New York, but incorporated under Massachusetts law, enter Massachusetts. 
                
               For purposes of completing this application, you’re formed under the laws of a foreign country if you aren't formed under the laws of the U.S., 
               its territories and possessions, federally recognized Indian tribal or Alaska native governments, or the District of Columbia.
        4      Bylaws are generally the internal rules and regulations of an organization. If you have bylaws, upload a current copy (including any 
               amendments). Bylaws don't need to be signed unless they are your organizing document as described in the instructions for Line 1 above.

Part III, Line Part III. Your Activities
               REMINDER Answer all questions in this part as they pertain to your past, present, and planned activities.
        1      Describe completely and in detail your past, present, and planned activities. Your narrative description of activities should be thorough and 
               accurate because we determine whether you qualify for 501(c)(4) exempt status based on the information in your application. 
                
               For each past, present, or planned activity, include information that answers the following questions: 
               What is the activity? 
               Who conducts the activity? 
               What percentage of your total time is allocated to the activity? (Combined time percentages should add up to 100%) 
               How is the activity funded (for example, donations, fees, etc.) and what percentage of your overall expenses is allocated to this activity? 
               How does the activity further your exempt purposes?

               describe a type of organization. Enter the code from the list of NTEE codes, located in the Appendix A, that best describes you. For more 
               information and more detailed definitions of these codes developed by the National Center for Charitable Statistics (NCCS), visit the Urban 
               Institute, NCCS website at nccs.urban.org. 
                
               TIP NTEE codes are also used for purposes other than identification of organizations described in section 501(c)(4). Therefore, all codes in 
               the list don’t necessarily correspond to a section 501(c)(4) purpose. 
        3      Describe any money or time (whether volunteer or paid) you spent or will spend attempting to influence the selection, nomination, election, or 
               appointment of any person to any federal, state, or local public office or to an office in a political organization.
        4      If you (including any predecessor organization) lost your section 501(c)(3) status due to carrying on propaganda or otherwise attempting to 
               influence legislation or due to participating in, or intervening in, any political campaign on behalf of (or in opposition to) any candidate for public 
               office, then you will not be treated as an organization described in section 501(c)(4). This rule will not apply if you were a church or 
               church-affiliated organization described in section 501(h)(5) in the tax year immediately preceding the tax year in which section 501(c)(3) 
               status was lost.
        5      You are a successor to another organization if you:
               Took or will take over activities previously conducted by another organization,
               Took or will take over 25% or more of the fair market value of the net assets of another organization, or
               Were established upon the conversion of an organization from for-profit to nonprofit status.
        5a     A for-profit organization is one in which persons are permitted to have an ownership or partnership interest, such as corporate stock. It 
               includes sole proprietorships, corporations, and other entities that provide for ownership interests.
        7      Indicate if you distribute, or plan to distribute, any of your property or funds (such as a distribution of profits) to your shareholders or members
        8      A relationship between you and the recipient organization includes the following situations. 
               You control the recipient organization, or it controls you through common officers, directors, or trustees, or through authority to approve 
               budgets or expenditures.
               You and the recipient organization were created at approximately the same time and by the same persons.
               You and the recipient organization operate in a coordinated manner with respect to facilities, programs, employees, or other activities.
               Persons who exercise substantial influence over you also exercise substantial influence over the recipient organization.
        8a     Answer “Yes” if you make grants, loans, or other distributions (such as goods) to a foreign organization.

Part III, Line Part III. Your Activities
9a-c           The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) of the U.S. Department of the Treasury administers and enforces economic and trade sanctions 
               based on U.S. foreign policy and national security goals against certain governments, entities, and individuals, as directed in Executive 
               Orders. As part of the comprehensive and sustained campaign against terrorist financing, all U.S. persons, including U.S.-based charities, are 
               prohibited from dealing with persons (individuals and entities) identified as being associated with terrorism on OFAC’s Specially Designated 
               Nationals and Blocked Persons List (OFAC SDN List). Information about OFAC sanction programs and the OFAC SDN List are available at 
               treasury.gov/ofac.
       10      Answer “Yes” if you are a membership organization formed to own and maintain common green areas, streets, and sidewalks and to enforce 
               covenants to preserve the appearance of a development.
       11      Answer “Yes” if your membership is limited to employees of a designated person or persons in a particular municipality and your net earnings 
               will be devoted exclusively to charitable, educational, or recreational purposes.

Part IV

Part IV, Line  Part IV. Compensation and Other Financial Arrangements
       1       Answer “Yes” if you do or will pay compensation to your officers, directors, trustees, employees, members, or independent contractors.
       1a      A conflict of interest arises when a person in a position of authority over an organization, such as a director, officer, or manager, may benefit 
               personally from a decision he or she could make. Adoption of a conflict of interest policy is not required to obtain tax-exempt status. However, 
               by adopting a policy, you will be choosing to put in place procedures that will help you avoid the possibility that those in positions of authority 
               may receive an inappropriate benefit.
                
               Reasonable compensation is the amount that would ordinarily be paid for like services by like organizations under like circumstances as of the 
               date the compensation arrangement is made. Establishing and documenting reasonable compensation is important because excessive 
               compensation may result in excise taxes on both the individual and you. In addition, excessive compensation may jeopardize your tax-exempt 
               status.
       1b      A fixed payment means a payment that is either a set dollar amount or fixed through a specific formula where the amount doesn’t depend on 
               discretion. For example, a base salary of $200,000 that is adjusted annually based on the increase in the Consumer Price Index is a fixed 
               payment.
                
               A nonfixed payment means a payment that depends on discretion. For example, a bonus of up to $100,000 that is based on an evaluation of 
               performance by the governing board is a nonfixed payment because the governing body has discretion over whether the bonus is paid and the 
               amount of the bonus.
       2       Don’t include purchases or sales of goods and services in your normal course of operations that are available to the general public under 
               similar terms and conditions. Answer “Yes” if any of your officers, directors, or trustees:
               Is an officer, director, or trustee in another organization to which you will purchase or sell goods, services, or assets from or to; or 
               Possesses more than 35% ownership interest in any organization to which you will purchase or sell goods, services, or assets from or to.
                
               An arm’s length standard exists where the parties have an adverse (or opposing) interest. For example, a seller wants to sell his goods at the 
               highest possible price, while a buyer wants to buy at the lowest possible price. These are adverse interests. 
                
               In negotiating with a person, an adverse interest is assumed if that person is otherwise unrelated to you in the sense of not being in a position 
               to exercise substantial influence over you or your affairs. If the person is in a position to exercise substantial influence over your affairs, then an 
               arm’s length standard requires additional precautions to eliminate the effect of the relationship. 
                
               Using a conflict of interest policy, information about comparable transactions between unrelated parties, and reliable methods for evaluating 
               the transaction, are examples of precautions that would help make the negotiation process equivalent to one between unrelated persons.
                
               Fair market value is the price at which property or the right to use property would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, 
               neither being under any compulsion to buy, sell, or transfer property or the right to use property, and both having reasonable knowledge of 
               relevant facts.
       3       Answer “Yes” if any of your officers, directors, or trustees:
               Is an officer, director, or trustee in another organization that has a lease, contract, loan, or other agreement with you; or
               Possesses more than a 35% ownership interest in any organization that has a lease, contract, loan, or other agreement with you. 
                
               For example, answer “Yes,” if one of your directors is an officer for a section 501(c)(3) organization with whom you have a lease for office 
               space or if one of your directors owns more than 35% of the voting stock of a corporation to which you made a loan.
       4       Indicate if you perform any services for any other organization or individual for which you receive a fee.
       5       A joint venture is a legal agreement in which the persons jointly undertake a transaction for mutual profit. Generally, each person contributes 
               assets and shares risks. Like a partnership, joint ventures can involve any type of business transaction and the persons involved can be 
               individuals, groups of individuals, companies, or corporations.

         You must complete the Statement of Revenue and Expenses for a total of 3 years including the current year. 
          
         Completed less than 1 year. If you existed less than 1 year, provide projections of your likely income and expenses for your current year and 
         next 2 years based on a reasonable and good faith estimate of your finances for a total of 3 years financial information.

         expenses for the current year and 1 year prior and projected income and expenses for next year for a total of 3 years financial information. 
          
         Completed more than 3 years. If you’ve existed more than 3 years, provide your actual income and expenses for the current year and 2 
         years prior for a total of 3 years financial information.
          
         CAUTION! We may request financial data for more than 3 years.
          
         Preparing the statement. Prepare the statement using the method of accounting you use in keeping your books and records. Place financial 
         information for the year you’re filing this form in the column marked Current tax year.
          
         Prepare the statement using the accounting period you entered on Part I, line 11. Enter “0” if a particular revenue or expense doesn’t apply to 
         you. 
          
         Your financial information should reflect your activities described in this application.
      1  Enter the total gifts, grants, and contributions you receive. Include items of value that you receive as gifts, grants, or contributions. Do not 
         include membership dues reported in line 2.
      2  Enter the amount you receive from members to provide support to the organization. Do not include payments from members, or on behalf of 
         members, to purchase admissions, merchandise, services, or use of facilities.
      3  Enter your gross income from dividends, interest, payments received on securities, loans, rents, and royalties that are held for investment 
         purposes.
      4  Enter your net income from unrelated business activities. Unrelated business income generally is income from any trade or business activity 
         that is regularly carried on, not conducted with substantially all (at least 85%) volunteer labor, and not related to your exempt purposes. (You 
         can take this amount from Form 990-T, if filed.)
          
         See Pub. 598 for additional information regarding unrelated business income.
      5  Enter amounts any local tax authority collects from the public on your behalf.
      6  Enter the value of services or facilities a governmental unit furnishes to you. Use the fair market value of the services or facilities. Don’t include 
         the value of services or facilities generally provided to the public without charge.
      7  Enter the total income from all sources not reported on lines 1 through 6, or lines 9 and 11. Provide an itemized list showing each type and 
         amount of income included on this line. Also, briefly describe each type of income.
      9  Enter income from activities that you conduct to further your exempt purposes (excluding amounts listed on other lines). Also, include as gross 
         receipts the income from activities conducted:
         Intermittently (not regularly carried on), such as an occasional auction; 
         With substantially all (at least 85%) volunteer labor, such as a car wash; 
         For the convenience of members, students, patients, officers, or employees, such as a parking lot for a school's students and employees; or 
         With substantially all contributed merchandise, such as a thrift store. 
          
         See Pub. 598 for additional information regarding income that isn’t from an unrelated trade or business.
          
         Gross receipts also includes payment by a governmental unit that may be called a grant but is actually payment for a service or facility for the 
         use of the government payer, rather than for the direct benefit of the public.
          
         Example. The state government gives a conservation group a grant to study the effects of a new sewage treatment plant on an ecologically 
         significant woodland area. Although the payment is called a grant, it is actually gross receipts that should be included on Line 9. The payment 
         is by a governmental unit (state) for a study for its own use, not for the direct benefit of the general public. A for-profit consulting company could 
         have done the study rather than by the tax-exempt conservation group. 
          
         Provide an itemized list of your gross receipts in line 24, describing the sources and amounts of income. For payments by a governmental unit, 
         list the payer, the purpose of the payment, and the payment amount.t.

         showing gross sales, cost or other basis/sales expenses), and gain or loss by asset category in line 24. You may use the format in Figure 2.

17      Under fund accounting, an organization segregates its assets, liabilities, and net assets into separate funds according to restrictions on the use

Part VII

Part VII         Part VII. Annual Filing Requirement
                 Most organizations must file an annual notice (Form 990 or 990-EZ) or notice (Form 990-N, Electronic Notice (e-Postcard)). Exceptions to this 
                 rule include certain affiliates of a governmental unit. You can find more detailed information about filing requirements and exceptions from the 
                 requirement to file in the Instructions for Form 990. 
                  
                 Unless specifically required to file Form 990 or Form 990-EZ (see the Instructions for Form 990), most organizations that normally have gross 
                 receipts of $50,000 or less may satisfy their filing obligation with the Form 990-N, Electronic Notice (e-Postcard).
                  
                 CAUTION! If you fail to file a required information return or notice for three consecutive years, your exempt status will be automatically revoked.
        1        Answer “Yes” if you’re claiming you are excepted from filing a Form 990-series return or notice and indicate the reason you believe you’re 
                 excepted from filing. See Pub. 557 and Instructions for Form 8940, Request for Miscellaneous Determination, for more information on the 
                 requirements for the various filing exceptions. 
                  
                 Provide information regarding how you meet your requested exception in your narrative description of activities or as part of an uploaded 
                 supplemental response. For example, if you’re claiming exception as an affiliate of a governmental unit based on Rev. Proc. 95-48, you must 
                 demonstrate that your bylaws or other organizational documents states that your board members were appointed by a governmental unit, an 
                 affiliate of a governmental unit, a public official acting in an official capacity, or elected by the public at large, pursuant to local statute or 
                 ordinance. Also include information demonstrating that you meet at least two (2) of the affiliation factors listed in Rev. Proc. 95-48, Section 
                 4.03 and how you meet all of the facts and circumstances detailed in Rev. Proc. 95-48, Section 4.04.

                 for information regarding the timing for submitting the notification.
