## What is due, and when

Computed from the fiscal year end and the return type. Federal dates are fixed by law. The state line is the general charitable solicitation rule of South Carolina, read from the regulator’s own guidance; exemptions vary, and the regulator’s page is the authority.

- Aug 16, 2027: Form 990-N for FY2027. Fifteenth day of the fifth month after year end. August 15 falls on a Sunday, so the deadline moves to Monday.
- Annual: South Carolina charitable solicitation registration. Charities that solicit in South Carolina register with the state and renew each year, unless exempt. It is due by the 15th day of the fifth month after the fiscal year ends. An extension is available for the annual financial report only. For a fiscal year ending in March, that is August 15. Regulator: Division of Public Charities, South Carolina Secretary of State (https://sos.sc.gov/online-filings/charities-pfrs-and-raffles/charities).
- Watch: Automatic revocation rule. No risk shown. Exempt status is revoked after three consecutive years without a return.

## What the IRS lists say

Three IRS lists, read each month. This is a display of what they show, not a determination of status.

## No size comparison

No return with figures is on the IRS file, so there is nothing to compare.
