Understanding and Keeping Tax-Exempt Status

Understanding and Keeping Tax-Exempt Status

When it comes to taxes, things can get very confusing fairly quickly, especially for many churches. As followers of Christ, we want to make sure we're obeying our nation's tax regulations. At the same time, we also want to ensure we can spend all of the money we have for our ministries on those ministries.

So, we have enlisted UBA Administration Manager, Dana Bowdoin, to explain the nuts and bolts of tax-exempt status for churches. Here, she lays out the qualifications, necessary documents, and guidelines for this helpful status which can keep church money flowing directly to necessary ministries.
