The United States Internal Revenue Service announced via their website that the deadline extensions previously announced also apply to Nonprofit deadlines for Form 990 and Form 990-PF. These are now due on July 15, 2020.
The IRS’ updated notice, Notice 2020-23, published on April 6, 2020, that gave deadline extensions to most taxpayers, also encompasses forms and their related schedules and attachments and applies to time-sensitive acts listed in Regs. Secs. 301.7508A-1(c)(1)(iv) through (vi) and Rev. Proc. 2018-58 including, for example, Form 990, Return of Organization Exempt From Income Tax, and Form 5500, Annual Return/Report of Employee Benefit Plan.
Notice 2020-23 included extended deadlines for individuals, businesses, and organizations to have the option to defer additional tax filings and payments (including 1Q & Q2 estimated tax payments) until July 15, 2020.
Anyone needing an extension until November 15, 2020, should file a form through their tax advisor. Note that any estimated tax liability payment, even with the 6-month extension dated from May 15, would still need to be remitted by the July 15, 2020 deadline.
