Compliance Packages for Nonprofits
We offer a comprehensive set of flat-fee compliance packages. These are cost-effective solutions that will give you peace of mind so you can focus on your mission.
Form 990 review
When you draft your Form 990-EZ or Form 990, do you wish you could have a nonprofit lawyer review it before you file it with the IRS to make sure all the questions are answered correctly? There are many questions on the annual tax report that are confusing unless you're a nonprofit compliance specialist. We'll review it for you and let you know if there are any red flags or other areas of concern.
Cost:
Form 990-EZ review: $149
Form 990 review: $299
Add a 30-min. consultation with one of our nonprofit lawyers: $100
Reinstatement of 501(c)(3) status
Was your nonprofit's 501(c)(3) status automatically revoked by the IRS because you didn't file your Form 990 for three years in a row? We can get you reinstated. But you need to act quickly: if we file the reinstatement package within 15 months of revocation, then the reinstatement will be retroactive to the date of revocation (which means there will be no gap of time when your organization did not have its 501(c)(3) status).
Cost:
For eligible "small" nonprofits: $749 (plus filing fee of $275)
For all other nonprofits: $1,749 (plus filing fee of $600)
Annual compliance checklist
We'll prepare a 4-5 page comprehensive annual checklist customized to your nonprofit to ensure you are equipped to comply with state and federal requirements. The checklist document includes a one-page table summary with the dates that each compliance-related task is due. This package includes a 30-minute consultation with one of our nonprofit attorneys.
Cost: $349.00
Reclassification from private foundation to public charity
It is surprisingly common for people to make mistakes when they apply to the IRS for their 501(c)(3) status and accidentally classify their nonprofit as a private foundation rather than a public charity. We can prepare and file the appropriate paperwork with the IRS to correct your nonprofit's 501(c)(3) status.
Cost:
$995 (plus filing fee of $600)
Charitable Solicitation Registration
Thirty-nine states (plus Washington, D.C.) require nonprofits to register with a state agency before they seek to raise funds from donors in those states. Navigating the requirements is challenging because every state has their own rules, exemptions and document requests. Compliant Nonprofit can handle all your Charitable Solicitation Registration needs.
Cost:
Register in one state: $295 (plus filing fees)
Register in five states: $995 (plus filing fees)
Register in all 40 jurisdictions: $2,995 (plus filing fees)
If you have a quote from another provider at a lower fee, let us know, and we'll see if we can match it.
Draft (or revise) bylaws
Every nonprofit needs bylaws so that the board can carry out its fiduciary obligations. The bylaws will govern how long board members serve, how board members are selected, how meetings are conducted, what committees exist, and they can also contain other important elements such as your conflicts of interest policy. In this package, we'll either review your current bylaws (and suggest edits, if necessary), or we'll draft bylaws for you that are consistent with your state's nonprofit corporation code. This package includes a 30-minute consultation with one of our nonprofit attorneys.
Cost: $499.00
