NJPTA has contracted with File 990 to provide a free, fast, easy, and safe way to e-file your 990-N form or 990 EZ form. This new program also allows NJPTA to receive information to assist units in keeping current with IRS requirements.
NJPTA is covering the cost of the utilization of this software for yearly 990 filings for all NJPTA units.
With this program, Local PTAs can complete and submit their form directly to the IRS in minutes and receive IRS acceptance notification within 24 hours of filing.
If you are a unit that has its IRS status revoked for non-filing, File 990 can also assist you in the reinstatement process. There is a cost to the unit for this service, in addition to the IRS mandated fees for reinstatement.
Log in and access information has been sent to all NJPTA Presidents and Treasurers. Please contact njpta@njpta.org if you need your unit’s login information.
What if we need an extension? There is no extension for the 990-N. Requests for an extension for 990-EZ or 990 must be made on November 15 of the current year. File IRS Form 8868 (can file online) giving you until February 15 of the current year. You can request a further extension until May 15 of the current year, but it is not automatic (use the same form to apply).
What if we forgot to file taxes or the IRS contacts our PTA? Contact NJPTA Treasurer at treasurer@njpta.org you have tax questions.
