- Dec 15, 2027: Form 990-EZ 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).
