Q&A

501c03

do you have to be incorporated to have a 501c status
- palm1949

No, you don't have to incorporate. However, if you plan to incorporate, it's important to do it before you apply for 501c3 status. The IRS considers a group "new" when it incorporates, so if you already have 501c3 status and then incorporate, you would need to apply again.
