My organization is eligible to submit a Form 990-N, but when we attempted to submit it, we received an error message indicating the EIN was incorrect. What should we do?
If you are certain that your EIN was entered correctly, the IRS may not have your organization listed as a tax-exempt organization. This may be because your application for tax exemption is pending or you did not need to apply for tax exemption. If this is the case, an officer of the organization should contact Customer Account Services at 1-877-829-5500 (toll-free) and ask that the organization be set up to allow it to submit the e-Postcard.
