| Dear Chapter Leader, As we wrap up 2023, it’s important to keep your Annual Chapter Responsibilities on your radar! With the shift to the new Member Portal, you’ll want to make sure you have activated your account so you can complete this year's responsibilities before the February 15, 2024 deadline. I’ve included details below regarding the completion of each task to keep your chapter in good standing. If you need assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to Angel Kearns (akearns@pflag.org). Thank you for all that you do, Jamie Curtis (she/her)

|  | Annual Chapter Responsibilities |
| | IRS Reporting Every chapter is required to file a report with the IRS by this fiscal year’s due date, February 15, 2024. The e-Postcard (990-N) is sufficient for most chapters with an annual income of less than $50,000. If your chapter income exceeds $50,000, visit irs.gov/990n for more information. The IRS rules are strict and inflexible, so it is very important for you and your chapter to submit before the February 15, 2024 deadline. |
| | State Reporting Most states require PFLAG chapters to file an annual report to stay in compliance and up-to-date with your state. Due dates and requirements vary and while it’s the responsibility of your chapter to find this information, we have compiled a list of Annual Filing Requirements by State that you can access here. You should also consider doing your own independent research to ensure that you’re completing all of the required filings. |
| Annual Chapter Report Every year your chapter must provide financial and other information to PFLAG National for reporting and tracking purposes. The annual report form should be completed by your chapter board and will likely take about fifteen minutes. |
| Membership Roster Updates Member roster updates and verifications allow us to provide timely updates and membership benefits to chapter members and board roster updates ensure we’re able to reach your chapter board with important updates, information, and chapter-related communications. Once you’ve updated your membership roster, be sure to pay your chapter dues! Your chapter is responsible for paying $15 per household in chapter dues yearly. These can be paid directly through the Member Portal or by check. Haven't logged in to the Member Portal yet?
