• Need expert to assist with post-dissolution contact from IRS

    Posted by michaelwyland on May 21, 2025 at 9:19 am

    I assisted a nonprofit in its dissolution from 2022 until 2024. In 2025, the IRS contacted the former board chair requesting Form 941 information from 2022. All records were archived in third-party long term storage and no one involved with the nonprofit is expert in Form 941 issues.

    Can anyone here answer some questions or refer to a qualified expert?

    Thanks!

    I’m embarrassed to say the situation was easily resolved. The former client and I both panicked, not realizing that the IRS request for documentation included an acknowledgement than no payment was due. The third-party payroll service was able to generate the proper form almost immediately and at no charge.

    It is good to hear that this one ended well. An IRS letter can certainly make anyone pause before opening the envelope. Payroll providers often retain records such as Form 941 filings, so it may be worth checking with them first. I would read the entire notice carefully before taking action. Sometimes the request really is just for information.
