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

Annual
Michigan charitable solicitation registration
Charities that solicit in Michigan register with the state and renew each year, unless exempt. The registration expires seven months after the fiscal year ends, and the renewal is due at least 30 days before that.
Exempt status is revoked after three consecutive years without a return. The latest return on file is FY2025.
IRS status check
What the IRS lists say
Three IRS lists, read each month. This is a display of what they show, not a determination of status.
Exempt status
Listed as exempt
The IRS list of exempt organizations. As of October 13, 2026.
Deductible donations
Listed
The IRS list of organizations eligible to receive tax deductible contributions. Listed with code PC (public charity). As of October 13, 2026.
Automatic revocation
Not on the list
The IRS list of organizations whose exemption was revoked for not filing three years in a row. As of October 13, 2026.
Peers
No size comparison
Peer groups start at $50,000 of revenue on the latest return. Below that, most organizations file Form 990-N, which carries no financial figures, so there is no group to compare with.
