-2- <br />is NORTHEAST NEIGHBORHOOD <br />a final determination of your foundation status. <br />If we publish a notice in the Internal Revenue Bulletin stating that we <br />will no longer treat you as a publicly supported organization, grantors and <br />contributors may not rely on this determination after the date we publish the <br />notice. In addition, if you lose your status as a publicly supported organi- <br />zation, and a grantor or contributor was responsible for, or was aware of, the <br />act or failure to act, that resulted in your loss of such status, that person <br />may not rely on this determination from the date of the act or failure to act. <br />Also, if a grantor or contributor learned that we had given notice that you <br />would be removed from classification as a publicly supported organization, then <br />that person may not rely on this determination as of the date he or she <br />acquired such knowledge. <br />If you change your sources of support, your purposes, character, or method <br />of operation, please let us know so we can consider the effect of the change on <br />your exempt status and foundation status. If you amend your organizational <br />document or bylaws, please send us a copy of the amended document or bylaws. <br />Also, let us know all changes in your name or address. <br />As of January 1, 1984, you are liable for social security taxes under <br />the Federal Insurance Contributions Act on amounts of $100 or more you pay to <br />each of your employees during a calendar year. You are not liable for the tax <br />imposed under the Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA). <br />• Organizations that are not private foundations are not subject to the pri- <br />vate foundation excise taxes under Chapter 42 of the Internal Revenue Code. <br />However, you are not automatically exempt from other federal excise taxes. If <br />you have any questions about excise, employment, or other federal taxes, please <br />let us know. <br />Donors may deduct contributions to you as provided in section 170 of the <br />Internal Revenue Code. Bequests, legacies, devises, transfers, or gifts to you <br />or for your use are deductible for Federal estate and gift tax purposes if they <br />meet the applicable provisions of sections 2055, 2106, and 2522 of the Code. <br />Donors may deduct contributions to you only to the extent that their <br />contributions are gifts, with no consideration received. Ticket purchases and <br />similar payments in conjunction with fundraising events may not necessarily <br />qualify as deductible contributions, depending on the circumstances. Revenue <br />Ruling 67-246, published in Cumulative Bulletin 1967-2, on page 104, gives <br />guidelines regarding when taxpayers may deduct payments for admission to, or <br />other participation in, fundraising activities for charity. <br />You are not required to file Form 990, Return of Organization Exempt From <br />Income Tax, if your gross receipts each year are normally $25,000 or less. If <br />you receive a Form 990 package in the mail, simply attach the label provided, <br />check the box in the heading to indicate that your annual gross receipts are <br />normally $25,000 or less, and sign the return. Because you will be treated as <br />a public charity for return filing purposes during your entire advance ruling <br />period, you should file Form 990 for each year in your advance ruling period <br />.
