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

- Dec 15, 2027: Form 990-EZ for FY2027. Fifteenth day of the fifth month after year end.
- State: Texas charitable solicitation registration. Texas requires registration of some charities only. Only law enforcement related organizations that solicit by telephone register with the Attorney General, and certain public safety and veterans organizations register with the Secretary of State. Regulator: Financial Litigation and Charitable Trusts Division, Office of the Attorney General of Texas (https://www.texasattorneygeneral.gov/divisions/charitable-trusts).
- 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.
