3)         If the organization has been in operation prior to registering, it must file, in addition to its registration statement, financial statements for each of the past three years and executed copies of annual reports or returns filed with the Internal Revenue Service for each of the past three years, must pay all filing fees and all late fees as provided by Sections 2 and 4 of the Act, and is subject to accounting for all past years of operation prior to registration.

3)         If the applicant is a professional fund raiser that will control or possess charitable funds, a bond in the amount of $10,000, expiring upon the next June 30, issued with the professional fund raiser as a principal and a corporate surety licensed to do business in Illinois as surety, must accompany the registration.  The bond must be in the form provided by the Bureau as set forth in Appendix B, Illustration C of this Part.

Section 400.40  Religious Exemption

b)         To obtain a religious exemption, an organization must file a completed registration statement, request an exemption and submit a religious exemption questionnaire in the form set forth in Appendix A, Illustration C of this Part.

 

c)         The Attorney General may require the organization to supply supplemental information as is necessary to determine its religious character.

e)         The form and attachments required for an organization's annual report is determined by the amount of its revenue and assets during the reporting fiscal period or whether it has used the services of a paid professional fund raiser as follows:

 

1)         Any organization which received contributions of more than $150,000 in any reporting fiscal year or any organization which employed professional fund raisers during any part of the fiscal year who raised contributions totaling more than $25,000 during the organization's fiscal year must file:

 

A)        The Illinois Charitable Organization Annual Report form signed by the president and the treasurer and/or two trustees;

 

B)        A copy of the Federal Internal Revenue return and/or report as required by the Internal Revenue Codes and incorporated attachments for the same period;

3)         Any organization which received contributions of more than $15,000 but not in excess of $25,000 during its fiscal year must file an annual report, but it may make a simplified filing by submitting:

 

A)        A financial statement using the Illinois Charitable Organization Annual Report form disclosing total receipts, total disbursements and assets on hand at the fiscal year end, accompanied by an attestation to the truth of the financial statement; and

 

B)        All required statutory fees.

 

4)         Certain organizations registered under the Act that are not required to file an annual report for a specific fiscal year under the Act, may be required to file under the Charitable Trust Act [760 ILCS 55].

g)         The Attorney General shall, upon written request, extend for 60 days the time for filing the annual financial report.

 

h)         If an organization is entitled to an additional extension for good cause by the Internal Revenue Service, which would extend its federal tax return or report due date to a date later than the Attorney General's due date, the organization may obtain an additional extension from the Attorney General coinciding with the same Internal Revenue Service due date.  Extension requirements are:

 

1)         This extension request must be made prior to the due date for the Attorney General's annual financial reports and must include:

 

A)        A written request for such additional extension;

 

B)        A completed and signed Illinois Charitable Organization Annual Report form;

2)         The filing of all required reports must be done on or before the Internal Revenue Service extended filing date and shall include:

 

A)        A copy of the approved Internal Revenue Service application for extension;

 

B)        A copy of the Federal tax return or report; and

 

C)        Audited financial statements if required by the Attorney General and not previously filed.
