Late Filing Penalties
Organizations who file Form 990-PF late or send an incomplete return will incur penalties fees from the IRS. Charges are typically $20 each day your return is late or $100 each day for organizations with gross receipts over than $1 million. The maximum penalty is $50,000 or 5% of gross receipts, whichever is the least amount. If a private foundation fails to pay any tax liabilities before the filing date, the IRS charges half of 1% of the amount due each month or part of the month the bill is left unpaid - up to 25% of the
tax amount.
A private foundation can lose exemption status if it fails to file a 990-PF form for three consecutive years. In such case, the organization is responsible for filing income tax returns, paying income taxes, and filing Form 990-PF as a taxable private foundation until exemption
status is reinstated.
