Annual Electronic Filing Requirement for Exchange Clubs and Districts

Exchange Clubs and Districts are required to electronically submit Form 990-N, also known as the e-Postcard, unless they choose to file a complete Form 990 or Form 990-EZ instead. If doing so, please send a scanned copy of the Form 990 or 990-EZ to financial@nationalexchangeclub.org.

Any club or district that fails to file required e-Postcards (or information returns – Forms 990 or 990-EZ) for three consecutive years will automatically lose its tax-exempt status. The revocation of the club or district’s tax-exempt status will take place on the filing due date of the third year. The e-Postcard is due on November 15, the day of the fifth month after the close of Exchange’s tax year on June 30.

Filing the e-postcard is simple by accessing the following site: http://www.irs.gov/990n; click on the link in the first paragraph to login and start filing – Form 990-N Electronic Filing system (e-Postcard). When you access the system, you will leave the IRS site and file the e-Postcard with the IRS through its trusted partner, Urban Institute. The form must be completed and filed electronically.
