The Instructions for Form 990 and Form 990-EZ, and the Instructions for Schedule A (Form 990 or 990-EZ) incorporate significant changes to address legislation enacted in 2006. Organizations that sponsor donor-advised funds or that have controlled entities must pay particular attention to the changes. In addition, supporting organizations must file regardless of their gross receipts (the $25,000 threshold no longer applies to such organizations).
