Event Synopsis:
Nonprofit stakeholders include donors, board directors and trustees, and most importantly, the populations served by and benefiting from the nonprofit mission.

Continued enhancements to Form 990 support the drive for greater nonprofit transparency and disclosure. In this Nonprofit Form 990 LIVE webcast, a panel of recognized tax practitioners and industry thought leaders will share current need-to-know nuts and bolts of nonprofit compliance along with emerging developments:
• Why the push for more disclosure serves the greater good
• How the nonprofit sector is embracing transparency to demonstrate accountability to donors and regulators
• Anticipated changes on the 2012 Form 990
• Typical differences between a nonprofit’s Form 990 and audited financial statements for the same fiscal year
• Up-to-the-minute audit updates from IRS field examinations and desk audits
• Live interactive Q&A session
