While most federally tax-exempt groups must complete a 990, a 990-EZ, or a 990-N, churches and state organizations are exempt. (Foundations must file a 990-PF.) The 990-EZ is mentioned only where it covers a particular topic. (The 990-N, filed by tiny groups, is essentially an e-postcard with only the most basic information.) This guide shows where to find information in the 990, the 990-EZ, and any attached schedules.

Mining the 990 – A Guide to Gleaning Key Data from Charities' Tax Form offers insightful solutions relating to and referencing all areas of IRS Form 990:

  • Compensation
  • Fundraising
  • Revenue & Expenses
  • Charity Status, Mission, Programs & Structure
  • Staff & Volunteers
  • Governance & Disclosure
  • Assets, Liabilities, Other Financials & Accounting Information
