What The Tax990 Commitment Really Means for Nonprofits

Estimated reading time: 12 minute(s)

Every nonprofit has a story, and behind every story is a mission worth protecting!

At Tax990, we know what it means to stand for something bigger. We see the late nights spent planning fundraisers, the tireless work to support communities, and the determination to make a difference. Filing your Form 990 isn’t just a requirement; it’s a way to continue the work that matters most.

That’s why we emphasize the Tax990 Commitment—a reflection of the same dedication and care that nonprofits show their communities, and a guarantee that ensures each filing is completed correctly and accepted by the IRS, every time.

Understanding the Tax990 Commitment 

The Tax990 Commitment is designed to help nonprofit organizations get their Form 990 accepted by the IRS without unnecessary complications.

Rather than simply providing a platform to submit forms, it focuses on:

• Getting you an extension if you’re not ready to file
• Helping you fix problems without extra fees
• Getting you compliant and keeping you there

This commitment ensures each filing reaches the right outcome by offering extensions, free corrections, and ongoing compliance support.

Free Extensions When You Need More Time 

Meeting the IRS deadline is not always possible, especially for organizations with limited staff or complex financials. That’s exactly why the Tax990 Commitment exists, giving you a built-in safety net with a complimentary Form 8868 extension when you pay for your 990 upfront, so you can move forward with confidence. 

No-Cost Amendments 

Even after filing, situations may arise that require updates, such as correcting an error or reporting new information.

With the Tax990 Commitment:

• Previously entered data is saved and prefilled, which simplifies updates 
• You can file corrections up to 3 times at no extra cost.

Built-In Support for IRS Rejections 

IRS rejections can happen for a variety of reasons. These include incorrect EINs, mismatched records, or missing information. Under the Tax990 Commitment, nonprofits receive:

• Clear rejection notifications explaining the issue
• Step-by-step guidance to correct errors 
• Free transmission of corrected returns 

Eliminating Risk with a Money-Back Guarantee

One of the most impactful aspects of the Tax990 Commitment is its risk-free filing approach. If a nonprofit’s return cannot be accepted by the IRS or is rejected due to duplication, the organization may be eligible for a full refund of the filing fee.

This guarantee is significant because it:

• Removes financial uncertainty 
• Reinforces our accountability to your IRS acceptance
• Gives nonprofits peace of mind during filing season

In an environment where compliance errors can be costly, this added layer of assurance is especially valuable.

Protection Plus: Confidence Beyond Filing 

Protection Plus extends Tax990’s commitment beyond filing, ensuring nonprofits stay protected even after their return is accepted.

When a nonprofit files through Tax990, Protection Plus is automatically included, providing up to $1 million in professional tax resolution services at no additional cost.

With Protection Plus, organizations gain:

• Expert assistance with IRS notices and inquiries 
• Audit support and representation by credential professionals (CPAs, EAs, attorneys)
• Direct communication and case handling with the IRS or state agencies 
• A dedicated resolution team that reviews cases and guides next steps 

By including Protection Plus, the Tax990 Commitment goes beyond filing. It provides ongoing protection, expert guidance, and a safety net for the future.
