The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has launched a new case study and video program to help exempt organizations better understand the newly revised Form 990. "The New Form 990: Getting Started," is a case study about a hypothetical organization (Exempt Organization for Disaster Relief), with a set of facts describing the organization and its finances. The video series goes through common reporting issues, offering seven videos explaining different sections of the Form 990 with facts from the case study. There is also an already filled-out Form 990 with two schedules that illustrate how the hypothetical organization would complete the annual return.
