Use Form 4720 to figure and pay:

To file Form 4720, mail or deliver it to:

If you cannot file Form 4720 by the due date, you may request an automatic 3-month extension of time to file by using Form 8868, Application for Extension of Time To File an Exempt Organization Return. The automatic 3-month extension will be granted if you properly complete this form, file it, and pay any balance due by the due date for Form 4720.

Form 8868 is also used to request an additional extension of time to file; however, these extensions are not automatically granted.

The name, address, and employer identification number of the organization or entity should be the same as shown on Form 990-PF, Form 5227, Form 990, Form 990-EZ, and Schedule A (Form 990 or 990-EZ). If you are a self-dealer, donor, donor advisor, related person, disqualified person, or manager filing a separate Form 4720, enter your name, address, and taxpayer identification number in Part II-A.

Include the suite, room, or other unit number after the street address.

If the Post Office does not deliver mail to the street address, show the P.O. box number instead of the street address.

If you want a third party (such as an accountant or an attorney) to receive mail for the foundation or charity, enter on the street address line “C/O” followed by the third party's name and street address or P.O. box.

If you are a manager, self dealer, disqualified person, donor, donor advisor, or related person, you should sign only in the spaces that apply, whether you use the return of the foundation or organization as your return, or file separately.

If you are signing on behalf of the foundation or organization and also because of personal tax liability, you must sign twice. You sign:

For a corporation (or an association), the form may be signed by one of the following: president, vice president, treasurer, assistant treasurer, chief accounting officer, or other corporate officer (such as tax officer).

For a partnership, the form may be signed by a partner or partners authorized to sign the partnership return.

If the return is filed on behalf of a trust, the authorized trustee(s) must sign it.

A receiver, trustee, or assignee required to file any return on behalf of an individual, a trust, estate, partnership, association, company, or corporation must sign the Form 4720 filed for these taxpayers.

Also, a person with a valid power of attorney may sign for the organization, foundation, manager, self-dealer, donor, donor advisor, or related person. Include a copy of the power of attorney with the return.

Any person, firm, or corporation that prepared the return for a fee must also sign it and fill in the address of the preparer. If a firm or corporation prepares the return, it should be signed in the name of the firm or corporation.

If you need more space, attach separate sheets showing the same information in the same order as on the printed form. Show the totals on the printed form.

Enter the organization's name and EIN on each sheet. Use sheets that are the same size as the form and indicate clearly the line of the printed form to which the information relates.

Report all amounts in U.S. currency (state conversion rate used) and give information in English. Report items in total, including amounts and transactions from both inside and outside the United States.

Sections 4941 through 4945 and section 4955 do not apply to foreign private foundations that receive substantially all of their support (other than gross investment income) from sources outside the United States. These organizations must complete this form and file it in the same manner as other private foundations. However, these organizations, as well as foundation managers and self-dealers, do not have to pay any tax that would otherwise be due on this return.

Managers, self-dealers, disqualified persons, donors, donor advisors, and related persons, paying tax on the organization's Form 4720 must pay with the return the tax that applies to them as shown in Part II-A, page 1. Managers, self-dealers, disqualified persons, donors, donor advisors, and related persons, who file separate Forms 4720 must pay the applicable tax with their separate returns. When managers do not sign the organization's Form 4720 to report their own tax liability, the amount of tax they owe should not be entered in Part II-B, line 1.

Payment by a private foundation of any taxes owed by the foundation managers or self-dealers will result in additional taxes under the self-dealing and taxable expenditure provisions. Managers and self-dealers should pay taxes imposed on them with their own check or money order.

Disqualified persons and entity managers should pay taxes on excess benefit transactions that are imposed on them with their own check or money order. Any reimbursement of a disqualified person's tax liability from excess benefit transactions by the organization will be treated as an excess benefit transaction subject to the tax unless the organization included the reimbursement in the disqualified person's compensation and the disqualified person's total compensation was reasonable. See the instructions to Schedule I on page 12 for information on excess benefit transactions.

You may round off cents to whole dollars on your return and schedules. If you do round to whole dollars, you must round all amounts. To round, drop amounts under 50 cents and increase amounts from 50 to 99 cents to the next dollar. For example, $1.39 becomes $1 and $2.50 becomes $3.

If you have to add two or more amounts to figure the amount to enter on a line, include cents when adding the amounts and round off only the total.

There are penalties for failure to file or to pay tax. There are also penalties for willful failure to file, supply information or pay tax, and for filing fraudulent returns and statements, that apply to public charities, private foundations, managers, donors, donor advisors, related persons, and self-dealers who are required to file this return. See sections 6651, 7203, 7206, and 7207. Also, see section 6684 for penalties that relate to tax liability under Chapter 42.

Interest at the underpayment rate established under section 6621 is charged for any unpaid tax. The interest on underpayments is in addition to any penalties.

See section 4962 for rules on abatement, refund, or relief from payment of first tier taxes under sections 4942 through 4945, 4955, and 4958. To request abatement, refund, or relief under section 4962, write “Request for Abatement Under Section 4962” in the top margin of Form 4720, page 1.

If you pay an initial tax on self-dealing or on investments that jeopardize charitable purpose (figured on Schedules A and D of Form 4720, respectively) for tax year 2006, the payment may not satisfy the entire tax liability for an act of self-dealing or a jeopardy investment. (For the definition of self-dealing, see the instructions for Schedule A of this form; for the definition of jeopardy investment, see the instructions for Schedule D of this form.) Paying the tax and filing a Form 4720 are required for each year or part of a year in the taxable period that applies to the act or investment. Generally, the taxable period begins with the date of the act or investment and ends with the date corrective action is completed, a notice of deficiency is mailed, or the tax is assessed, whichever comes first.

Similar rules apply for the initial tax liability resulting from failing to distribute income (Schedule B) and from acquiring excess business holdings (Schedule C). Thus, the initial tax liability for those taxes continues to accrue until the date a notice of deficiency is mailed, the violation is corrected, or the tax is assessed, whichever comes first.

Before completing any of the schedules in this return, read the applicable instructions. If any completed schedule shows taxes owed, enter them on page 1 of this return.

The instructions for Schedules A through L describe acts or transactions subject to tax under Chapter 42. Also, go to www.irs.gov/charities/foundations/index.html http://www.irs.gov/charities/foundations/index.html for a list of exceptions that eliminate any tax liability that would otherwise be shown on Schedules A and E. Do not complete Schedules A and E if exceptions apply to all the acts or transactions. In general, question A on page 1 and Schedules A, B, C, D, and E do not apply to public charities. However, for tax years beginning after August 17, 2006, Schedule C will apply to some public charities including donor advised funds and certain supporting organizations that are treated as private foundations for purposes of section 4943. See the instructions for Schedule C for a description of the public charities to which section 4943 now applies.

Before completing Schedule C, determine whether the organization or donor advised fund has excess holdings in any business enterprise. If the organization or donor advised fund has holdings subject to the tax on excess business holdings, complete Schedule C for each enterprise.

Before completing Schedule D, determine whether the investment was program related. If not, complete Schedule D for each investment for which you answered “Yes” to Form 990-PF, Part VII-B, question 4a or b, or Form 5227, Part VI-B, question 4a or b.
