Dear Applicant:
We’re pleased to tell you we determined you’re exempt from federal income tax under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 501(c)(3). Donors can deduct contributions they make to you under IRC Section 170. You’re also qualified to receive tax deductible bequests, devises, transfers or gifts under Section 2055, 2106, or 2522. This letter could help resolve questions on your exempt status. Please keep it for your records.
Organizations exempt under IRC Section 501(c)(3) are further classified as either public charities or private foundations. We determined you’re a public charity under the IRC Section listed at the top of this letter.
Based on the information you submitted with your application, we approved your request for reinstatement under Revenue Procedure 2014-11. Your effective date of exemption, as listed at the top of this letter, is the postmark date of your application.
If we indicated at the top of this letter that you’re required to file Form 990/990-EZ/990-N, our records show you’re required to file an annual information return (Form 990 or Form 990-EZ) or electronic notice (Form 990-N, the e-Postcard). If you don’t file a required return or notice for three consecutive years, your exempt status will be automatically revoked.
If we indicated at the top of this letter that an addendum applies, the enclosed addendum is an integral part of this letter.
