Maximize Your Tax-Exempt Organization's Credits with Form 990-T
If your tax-exempt organization earns unrelated business taxable income (UBTI), it may be required to file IRS Form 990-T. When filing Form 990-T, eligible organizations may claim certain federal business tax credits to help reduce their income tax liability.
To properly claim these credits, the organization must complete the applicable IRS credit forms and report them on Form 3800 (General Business Credit), which is then attached
to Form 990-T.
Form 3800
General Business Credit
Allows organizations to calculate, combine, and claim eligible federal business tax credits from multiple IRS credit forms and apply them against the income tax reported on Form 990-T when unrelated business taxable income exists.
Form 3800 applies IRS limitations, determines allowable credit amounts for the current year, and tracks any unused credits that may be carried forward to future tax years. This form must be attached to Form 990-T.
Examples: Investment Credit (Form 3468), Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit (Form 8911), Clean Vehicle Credit (Form 8936), and other eligible general business credits.
