Here's how to report Adjusted Net Income

  1. Log in to your Tax990 account.
  2. Identify the rejected return either from the Dashboard or Forms History.
  3. To identify it from the Dashboard, keep a note of the Return ID of the rejected return that you find in the rejection email. 
  4. To identify it from the Forms History page, click the Tax Returns on the menu, and you'll land in the Forms History page, where you'll find the rejected return listed. 
  5. In both options, you need to click on the Rejected by the IRS button found against the rejected return to find the list of errors. Then, click the Fix Me button against the error code F990PF-035-01.
  6. Based on the filing type you have chosen, you will be navigated to the corresponding page.
    • Interview-based filing - You'll be directed to the Adjusted Net Income & Qualifying Distributions page, under the Private Operating Foundations section. Here, the organization must provide the appropriate details to calculate Adjusted Net Income & Qualifying Distributions' value.
    • Form-based filing - You'll be directed to Part XIV, Line 2a of Form 990-PF. Here, provide the adjusted net income value for the tax year.
  7. Review the details, and click the Transmit button to re-transmit your return to the IRS at no additional cost.

We'll keep you informed on the status of the return once we hear back from the IRS.
