14 DETERMINATIONS 1. On May 3, 2016 EO formalized procedures to identify and prevent erroneous automatic revocation before organizations are notified and before the revocations are posted to EO Select Check a.

17 DETERMINATIONS 4. The first EO return filed will designate the organization as a Form 990 filer in the IRS database a. If the organization does not file an EO application or it does not timely file its returns, its filing status reverts to Form 1120 for C Corporations b. A Form 990 filed after this time will be rejected 17
18 LEGISLATION UPDATE AS OF JUNE 2017
19 LEGISLATION UPDATE 1. There is a long to do list and not much time to get it all accomplished a. Raise the debt ceiling by September 29 b. Set the FY 2018 spending budget c. Maybe then they get to tax code changes 19
20 LEGISLATION UPDATE 2. Currently the most senior levels of Congress are negotiating with the White House on the framework of the tax code changes a. CGP s lobbyist sees the tax bill moving with the FY 2018 budget reconciliation bill b. Paul Ryan hopes to pass a bill by Thanksgiving 20
21 LEGISLATION UPDATE 3. Ideas that might be included in the tax bill: a. The Legacy IRA Act extends the charitable rollover law to include gifts of up to $400,000 to charitable remainder trusts and charitable gift annuities. This amount is reduced by any other qualifying gifts made from an IRA that is limited to $100,000 b. Restrictions on large university endowments c. Caps to the charitable deduction that coincides with the increase in the standard deduction d. Universal above-the-line charitable deduction for all taxpayers 21
22 LEGISLATION UPDATE e. The CHARITY act, which includes: i. i. Mandatory electronic filing of exempt organization annual returns. IRS could delay the application for two years for small organizations ii. Extend the charitable rollover law to include gifts to donor advised funds (DAFs). In return, DAFs would have to disclose the average percentage distributed from all of their DAFs over the most recent one and three year periods iii. 1% excise tax on private foundation net investment income iv. A limited exception to the excess business holdings rule for certain philanthropic business holdings; think Newman s Own. 22
23 LEGISLATION UPDATE f. f. Repeal of the Johnson Amendment, which states that tax-exempt organizations are absolutely prohibited from directly or indirectly participating in, or intervening in, any political campaign on behalf of [or in opposition to] any candidate for elective public office. 23
24 OTHER ITEMS
25 OTHER ITEMS 1. In the near future, tax form updates will only reflect legislative changes. EO will address other issues, such as the effect of changes in accounting standards on the 990, through changes in the instructions 2. EO will reject incomplete paper filed 990s starting in a. Previously IRS accepted paper filings and would work with the exempt organization to correct any filing errors b. This is consistent with the way IRS handles e-filed returns, which is to reject them up front if any filing errors are noted 25
26 OTHER ITEMS 3. IRS has sent to exempt organizations some erroneous letters telling them that IRS did not accept their extensions when in fact they did a. Since we e-file our extension requests, we can respond by sending IRS a copy of the electronic record showing that IRS accepted our request b. For this reason, we recommend not mailing your extension request to IRS 26
27 OTHER ITEMS 4. For 990-PF filers in Texas, the Attorney General s Office now wants their executed copy of the Form 990-PF sent to them by . Both the PDF and the subject line of the should have the foundation s name 27
28 OTHER ITEMS 5. IRS released the 2016 Form 990-EZ in an interactive format. You click on the question mark icons to display help windows which contain links to IRS publications and instructions. They hope the new format will reduce the error rate on this return. 28
