  1. IRS 990 requirements • Small tax-exempt organizations whose gross receipts are normally $25,000 or less may be required to electronically submit Form 990-N, also known as the e-Postcard. • The Pension Protection Act of 2006 added this filing requirement to ensure that the IRS and potential donors have current information about your organization. • The first e-Postcards are due in 2008 for tax years ending on or after December 31, 2007. The e-Postcard is due every year by the 15th day of the 5th month after the close of your tax year. • http://www.irs.gov/charities/article/0,,id=96103,00.html
