If your organization is a 501(c)(3) non-profit—like a church, religious institution, school, or other not-for-profit group—you may not have to pay taxes on your income. That's great! However, U.S. law still requires Catapult to collect some tax information from you so we can confirm your tax-exempt status with the IRS.
We might also need to send you a 1099 form at the end of the year. It's just an informational statement for your records—no extra taxes to worry about.
Here's what you'll typically need to provide on your tax form (though you should absolutely check with your tax professional to be sure):
-
Federal Tax Classification: Choose "Other" from the options.
-
Provide your organization's valid EIN (Employer Identification Number) or SSN so the IRS can verify your status.
