Nonprofit status
Preparation is not approval.
AutismCertified is an exploratory initiative. Registration, nonprofit and tax status remain unverified. Draft documents are preparation, not filing or approval.
AutismCertified does not claim approved 501(c)(3) status or tax-deductibility. This page does not establish that an application is pending with the IRS.
Documents and current status
- Articles of incorporation
Draft prepared
Draft articles exist. A draft does not establish that incorporation has been filed or accepted.
- Governance documents
Draft prepared
Bylaws, a board resolution and a conflict-of-interest policy have been drafted. Signed adoption and a confirmed board roster have not been verified.
- Program and filing materials
Draft prepared
Program narratives, an intake worksheet and filing checklists exist. They do not establish that an IRS application has been submitted.
- Incorporation record
Not verified
An accepted state filing or incorporation record has not been verified.
- EIN assignment
Not verified
An IRS EIN assignment record has not been verified.
- IRS tax-exempt recognition
Not verified
An IRS determination letter recognizing tax-exempt status has not been verified.
What would establish a different status?
Accepted formation records, signed governance documents, an EIN assignment and any IRS filing acknowledgment or determination would need to be reviewed before the corresponding status is described as filed, adopted or approved.
Organizational status does not certify a business. Training, payment or an inquiry alone does not grant a public badge or directory listing.
