Self-Declarers Questionnaire for Section 501(c)(4), (5) and (6) Organizations
To help us better understand certain types of organizations that have claimed tax-exempt status without being recognized by the IRS as exempt, and to learn how they satisfy their exemption requirements, Exempt Organizations is asking more than 1,000 self-declared section 501(c)(4), (c)(5) and (c)(6) organizations to complete the Self-Declarers Questionnaire.
Only organizations that have received a letter from the IRS that includes a PIN, Password and Source ID can complete the questionnaire. You may also view/print a reference-only copy (below) prior to clicking on the link to complete the questionnaire.
