Compliance clock

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

Annual
Washington charitable solicitation registration
Charities that solicit in Washington register with the state and renew each year, unless exempt. It is due within eleven months after the fiscal year ends. The renewal must be received by the last business day of that month. For a fiscal year ending in June, that is the end of May.
Watch
Automatic revocation rule No risk shown
Exempt status is revoked after three consecutive years without a return. The latest return on file is FY2026.

Filing history

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.

What public data cannot tell you

A 990 shows money in and money out. It cannot show whether programs, outcomes, funding and compliance live in one place, or how long a funder report takes to produce. The five pillars below are scored only by the organization itself.
