| Welcome! This is the home page for Terry Miller. My purpose is help the nonprofit sector by providing a variety of free information and tools. And not least, to provide myself a soap box! |
The pages on this site are:
|

| Common Sense about Nonprofit Financial Management and Tax Compliance Issues |
| Upcoming Public Workshops & Seminars None currently scheduled. |
| Citizens United v. FEC: What does it mean for nonprofits? The US Supreme Court, on 1/21/2010, released a ground-shaking opinion (exploiting a much narrower set of facts in the case before them) to reverse over 100 years of legislation and court decisions about the role of corporations in elections (they apparently feel corporate interests are under-represented). Not to mention giving corporations rights granted in the Bill of Rights. For more on this and what it means for nonprofits, I have a longer discussion on my screeds page. |
| New Form 990 (for 2009) is out. There have been some changes. IRS has published a list of what it sees as key changes; some of them are important. The forms and instructions are all ready now on the IRS website. I will work to update my 990 page in the next couple months. Also remember that for 2009, the threshold for when you must file the full 990 (vs. the 990-EZ) drops to $500,000 (from $1M) in "gross receipts" (and for 2010 will drop to $200,000, when the 990-EZ threshold will rise from "ordinarily" <$25K to ordinarily <$50K). There is also an Assets threshold for filing even if your gross receipts are low, but most of my readers don't run any risk of triggering that one! :-) |
