This website has only a fraction of the information you can find in Prepare Your Own 501(c)(3) Application:
The information linked below discusses IRS Form 1023 with a December, 2017 revision date. At the end of January, 2020, the IRS introduced a long-form electronic Form 1023. After a 90 day grace period, the IRS stopped accepting paper Forms 1023 for processing as of 5/1/2020. According to the IRS, about 70% of 501(c)(3) applications are filed on Form 1023-EZ. In addition, I believe long-form 1023 filers are the least likely to use the help in a free website, so I will not be updating this information.
I hope this chart, showing which questions in the new form correspond to questions in the 2017 1023, will be of some help.

Originally posted in 1998, www.Form1023Help.com was one of the first public service websites to provide help with IRS Form 1023 to the general public. Since the advent of the "Streamlined" 501(c)(3) application, Form 1023-EZ, there is likely to be less demand for "Do-It-Yourself" information about the long-form 501(c)(3) Application.
We were all stunned
at how quickly it
was approved.
