Remitian now supports Form 990 filers
Remitian now supports exempt organization payments. Form 990-T and Form 990-PF, balance due and estimated tax, federal, on the same workflow as every other client.
Exempt organizations are live in Remitian.
Firms can add their nonprofit clients today and execute federal tax payments for them on the same platform as everything else. Same intake. Same approvals. Same record. No portal work, and no separate process for the one client type that used to need one.
What is covered
- Form 990-T, unrelated business income tax
- Form 990-PF, net investment income excise tax for private foundations
- Balance due and estimated tax payments for both
Why this matters for a nonprofit practice
Exempt organization work does not follow the firm calendar. The return is due the fifteenth day of the fifth month after year end, and exempt organizations use fiscal year ends that scatter across the calendar. June 30 is common. So is September 30.
A firm with thirty nonprofit clients is not managing one deadline. It is managing a rolling series of them, each landing on a different date, most of them well outside the months when the firm is staffed for volume. Add quarterly estimates for foundations and for organizations with unrelated business income, and the number of individual payment processed per client multiplies fast.
Each of those payments has historically meant portal credentials, manual entry and a confirmation filed somewhere separate. That is the work this removes.
What changes
One workflow. Exempt organization payments are made the same way as any other payment in Remitian. No different instructions for staff.
One record. Nonprofit payments sit alongside the rest of your client base. Same confirmations, same audit trail, same documentation for the file. When a board treasurer asks what was paid and on what date, the answer is where every other answer is.
Deadlines handled. The manual queue that forms around each nonprofit deadline goes away, including the ones that land in months when nobody is watching for them.
Who this is for
Firms with private foundation clients, who pay excise tax on net investment income and carry quarterly estimates. And firms with exempt organizations of any type that generate unrelated business income, whether that is a university with rental activity, an association with advertising revenue, or a charity operating a business alongside its mission.
A public charity with no unrelated business income files its return and owes nothing. Nothing changes for those clients, and nothing needed to.
Getting started
Existing clients can add exempt organizations now. If you have questions about a specific entity or filing, your account contact can confirm coverage.
