Can you tell me how to get a 501 (c)?

Answer by  ElectronicGuy (221)

As with any legal document or citation, the best thing to do is to either contact the person who "awarded" it directly, or to contact an attorney. Typically laws and regulations vary by county and state. In this case I would personally contact your municipal court for more information here.

A non for profit corporation must be legally formed (preferable with a lawyer). Tex exempt status is then sought for this corporation. You must establish a purpose for this status - education, charitable, artistic, etc. File an EO exempiton application (form 1023, 1024, or 1028, depending on type of non-profit) with the IRS. Approval is NOT guaranteed.

To be exempt from taxes as a charity under IRS Code Section 501(c), the taxpayer must file Form 1023 with the IRS.

Start with IRS form 1023. You will need to fill that out for your non profit organization. Fill it out completelty, incomplete forms often delay status.
