THANKS FOR THE SMOOTH TIPS

[@cotyandjessicabailey4180]

Great information. Keep it up. 👍

If we are a very small non-profit but want to compensate coaches/referees, etc. with a type of stipend is that acceptable and would we issue a 1099 even if it's a very low amount such as less than $500?

My friend excellent video. Havevyou thinked in do someoanes videow in spanish?

[@waynecmontgomery]

Hey Greg, great video very informative, You forgot to tell nonprofit operators that they do NOT have to pay FUTA or (Federal Unemployment Taxes) once they obtain 501(c)(3) status. You also failed to tell nonprofit operators their nonprofits will pay a penalty for salaries over $1 million dollars that includes pass-through operated, controlled, or owned companies that belong to the nonprofit. I am assuming you are a Tennessee Vol football fan. My dad lived by SEC football. I hope all is well my friend.

[@gregmcray]

Hey, Wayne! Yep, all true stuff...especially the part about Tennessee football. Go Vols!

[@waynecmontgomery]

@@gregmcray Go Vols !!! You should do a brief short on how the CTA or the Corporate Transparency Act will affect nonprofits who do NOT have 501 (c) tax-exempt status they will have to file reports with FinCen starting in 2025 or 2024 if they are a new organization "if" they do NOT have some kind of 501(c) exemption.

How I could ask how much non profit organization is paying to there employees.

[@FoundationGroup]

Their Form 990 will have expense line items for payroll and benefits. Also, any officers or directors who are also employees will have their salaries directly listed on Form 990. You can always ask a nonprofit you support to see a copy of their filed Form 990 for a given year, or search for it yourself at IRS.gov/EO .
