Understanding Your Filing Status
● Accepted
The IRS received and accepted your filing for this tax year. No action needed.
● Missing
We couldn't find a filing record for this year. You may need to file for this period to stay compliant.
2 Years Missing
You're one year away from automatic revocation. File immediately to protect your status.
3+ Years Missing
Your tax-exempt status may already be revoked. Reinstatement costs $600+ and takes months.
