The IRS determination letter states the obligation directly: Form 990, 990-EZ or 990-N is required, and the accounting period ends December 31.
Which Form 990 does Sevadar Foundation have to file?
| Item | Detail | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Annual return or notice | Form 990, Form 990-EZ, or Form 990-N (the e-Postcard) | IRS determination letter, August 29, 2023 |
| Accounting period | Ends December 31 — a calendar fiscal year | IRS determination letter |
| Consequence of not filing | Exempt status is automatically revoked after three consecutive years without a required return or notice | IRS determination letter |
Which of the three forms applies in a given year depends on the organization’s gross receipts and assets for that year. Small organizations file the 990-N; larger ones file the 990-EZ or the full 990.
Where can I find a nonprofit’s Form 990?
Annual returns filed by exempt organizations are public records. The IRS publishes them, and they are searchable by EIN:
- IRS Tax Exempt Organization Search: apps.irs.gov/app/eos — search EIN 93-2840861.
- Third-party charity databases mirror the same IRS data and are often easier to browse, though they can lag the IRS by months.
The foundation does not ask you to take its word for any of this. That is the point of publishing the EIN.
What does a Form 990 show, and what does it leave out?
A Form 990 shows money and governance. It does not show a resident who did not fall because somebody noticed the handrail, and it will never show the work that CareGuard is legally required to protect. A reader who wants to evaluate a nonprofit purely from its 990 is reading the only document that is guaranteed to exist, not the one that describes what happened. What is protected and why →

What happens if a nonprofit doesn’t file a Form 990?
It loses its tax exemption. The IRS determination letter states that exempt status is automatically revoked after three consecutive years without a required return or notice. For Sevadar Foundation that means one Form 990, 990-EZ or 990-N for every calendar year, since its accounting period ends December 31.
Is a nonprofit’s Form 990 public?
Yes. Annual returns filed by exempt organizations are public records. The IRS publishes them, and they are searchable by EIN through its Tax Exempt Organization Search; Sevadar Foundation’s EIN is 93-2840861. Third-party charity databases mirror the same IRS data and are often easier to browse, though they can lag the IRS by months.
Which nonprofits file the 990-N instead of the full Form 990?
It depends on the organization’s gross receipts and assets for that year. Small organizations file the 990-N, the electronic notice known as the e-Postcard. Larger ones file the 990-EZ or the full Form 990. The determination letter requires Sevadar Foundation to file one of the three every year.
