Please review the following corrections to the content of this webinar:
When determining whether an organization that has existed for less than three years can file the 990-N, Drew indicated that you may count the first two years as $0 for the average; this is outdated information. The current rule states that you may file the 990-N if you brought in less than $75,000 in your first tax year or averaged less than $60,000 in your first two tax years. From year three onward, Drew's description of averaging gross receipts is correct.
In the Q&A, Drew indicated that when there is a merchant fee for online payment processors charged before the amount is credited to your account you should use the amount that went into your account for your gross receipts. This is incorrect as the gross receipts should reflect the total amount with the merchant fee listed as an expense.
