All Kiwanis Clubs are required to file annual tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
Tax-exempt organizations whose gross receipts normally are $50,000 or less are not required to file IRS forms 990 or 990-EZ. But they are required to file an electronic form annually. Failure to file for three consecutive years could result in revocation of the organization's tax-exempt status.
IRS information on the electronic form is at Form 990-N.
Not sure if your club has filed? You can look it up on the search page.
The standard information the IRS will require when filing the electronic Form 990-N is the name of your Kiwanis club, mailing address, Web site address (if applicable), employer identification number (EIN), annual tax period date, and a statement that annual gross receipts are still normally $50,000 or less.
Because Kiwanis International operates on a fiscal year of Oct. 1 to Sept. 30, the filing due date is Feb. 15 each year.
More information is available on the Kiwanis International web site, at https://www.kiwanis.org/who-we-are/governance-financials-public/irs-forms/.
Information on other legal and tax issues which Kiwanis clubs must consider also is available.
