Dear Chapter Leader, With the end of the year in sight, it's a great time to start work on your chapter's annual responsibilities! Please note that all required items are due by February 15, 2025, so it's wise to begin preparations early to avoid any last-minute issues. The most important task is completing your IRS forms. For chapters with annual income under $50,000, you'll simply need to submit a 990 e-postcard. Please note that the February 15 deadline is strictly enforced by the IRS, with no exceptions for late submissions. This is particularly crucial because failing to file for three consecutive years will result in the loss of your tax-exempt status—a situation that is both expensive and time-consuming to correct. To help you complete this process, we've created a comprehensive guide with visual instructions, which you can find in the Member Portal. We're here to support you through this process, so please don't hesitate to reach out if you need assistance! Thank you for all that you do, Jamie Curtis (she/her) Vice President, Chapter & Communities Engagement |
