FAQ

About the Form 1024 filler.

What does the $9 Blank tier include?
Yes. The blank Form 1024 PDF is the official IRS form; you can download it for $9 (official IRS form, file yourself). The paid tiers add convenience: filled PDF ($99), full package with assembled schedules ($199), or full prep with specialist subsection narrative + pay.gov submission ($499). The $600 IRS user fee is always separate and passes through at cost.
Which 501(c) subsection do I file under?
Form 1024 covers 14 different subsections. The most common: (c)(4) social welfare, (c)(6) trade associations, (c)(7) social/recreation clubs, (c)(5) labor/agricultural, (c)(8) fraternal beneficiary, (c)(19) veterans. Each has its own qualifying tests and schedule. Our filler in Section 1 helps you pick the right one.
What about 501(c)(3)?
501(c)(3) charitable orgs use Form 1023, not Form 1024. The application processes are separate. We have a dedicated Form 1023 filler - see /form-1023.html.
Why is Form 1024 priced higher than 2553 or 7004?
Form 1024 is substantially more work than a simple tax election. It covers 14 different exempt subsections, requires a different schedule (A-G) attached per subsection, demands a subsection-specific activities narrative, and asks for 3 years of financial data. The $499 specialist tier includes drafting the narrative and selecting the right schedule - work that costs $1,500-$3,000 at most law firms.
What is the $600 IRS user fee?
Form 1024 has a $600 user fee paid directly to the IRS through pay.gov at submission. It applies regardless of organization size and is not refundable if the application is denied. We never mark up the user fee - it passes through at cost. Our service fee ($9 / $99 / $199 / $499) is for our work; the $600 goes to the Treasury.
How long does IRS approval take?
Typical processing time is 4-9 months depending on subsection complexity. (c)(4) social welfare and (c)(6) trade associations tend to process faster. (c)(7) social clubs and (c)(8) fraternal orgs take longer because the qualifying tests are more complex.
What documents do I need to attach?
Organizing documents (Articles of Incorporation or equivalent), Bylaws, Conflict of Interest Policy, 3 years of financial data (past or projected), and the applicable schedule for your subsection (A for labor/ag, B for social welfare, C for business league, D for social club, E for fraternal beneficiary, G for veterans org). The $499 tier reviews each and assembles the package.
Can Form 1024 be paper-filed?
No. Form 1024 has been filed exclusively through the pay.gov portal since 2021. Paper submissions are no longer accepted. Our $499 tier handles the pay.gov submission and IRS user fee processing on your behalf.
