Other Exemptions

If desired,  Texas organizations are required to apply for an Income and Sales Tax Exemption.

Tax Returns

All organizations (except those classified as churches) are required to file annual 990 form (990N, 990EZ, 990 or 990PF) to be exempt from Income Tax.
The return is due on the 15th day of the 5th month after the end of the organization's fiscal year. Failure to file for 3 consecutive years could make
your organization lose tax-exempt status.
