## 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 Georgia, read from the regulator’s own guidance; exemptions vary, and the regulator’s page is the authority.

- Nov 16, 2026: Form 990 for FY2026. Fifteenth day of the fifth month after year end. November 15 falls on a Sunday, so the deadline moves to Monday.
- Nov 15, 2027: Form 990 for FY2027. Fifteenth day of the fifth month after year end.
- Every two years: Georgia charitable solicitation registration. Charities that solicit in Georgia register with the state and renew every two years, unless exempt. It is due by the date the registration expires. Regulator: Charities Division, Office of the Georgia Secretary of State (https://sos.ga.gov/how-to-guide/how-guide-charities).
- Watch: Automatic revocation rule. No risk shown. Exempt status is revoked after three consecutive years without a return. The latest return on file is FY2025.

## When each return reached the IRS

From IRS records of electronically filed returns. The IRS record date is the date in the IRS’s own record of each return. It is not a legal filing date, and extensions are not public.

| Fiscal year | Form | IRS record date | Due date | Note |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| FY2025 | Form 990 | May 4, 2026 | November 17, 2025 |  |

Returns for fiscal years before 2021, and returns the IRS record cannot date, are not listed.
