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

- Feb 16, 2027: Form 990 for FY2026. Fifteenth day of the fifth month after year end. February 15 is a legal holiday (Washington's Birthday), so the deadline moves to the next business day.
- Feb 15, 2028: Form 990 for FY2027. Fifteenth day of the fifth month after year end.
- State: Missouri charitable solicitation registration. Missouri requires registration of some charities only. Organizations that are tax exempt under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code do not register. Regulator: Missouri Attorney General's Office (https://ago.mo.gov/get-help/programs-services-from-a-z/charity/for-nonprofits/).
- 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.
