Form 990 and 990T Efile rejection

If you have the IRS letter (since you have the date), what section is on it?

Has the Organization changed their name?

"we have always used 501C19 when the returns were mailed"

They get a little more picky when things are e-filed 😉

Like Susan said, see if you can find the original letter to find out what they really are in the eyes of God---------- oops, I mean the IRS.

@IRonMaN @sjrcpa found something very interesting in the old file... The 2006 IRS 990 package with the instructions and blank forms. On the cover of booklet it states organizations exempt from income tax under Section 501 C 4 of the Internal Revenue code.. I'm not sure if that is correct but that appears to be the code that the IRS has or they wouldn't have sent them that booklet.... I don't know what happened back in 1963 because I wasn't around yet so I may have to go with this 501 C 4 , what do you think?

I found this information which may be useful: prior to the passage of the act of August 29th 1972 most War veterans organizations were recognized as 501C 4... It appears after this date they are now 501C 19 entities

I have a similar problem with a different twist.  Doing a 990 for a Masonic organization.  They had been incorrectly using 501(c)(8) code, which is for a fraternal benefit society such as Woodmen of the World (basically an insurance organization set up under a fraternal umbrella).  In 1969, Congress established/created the 501(c)(10) to differentiate the organizations that do insurance vs those that don't.  Most masonic organizations are 10's, as they aren't in the life/health insurance business.  So, I put 10 in the place designated for the organization type, and the e-file is rejected because of it.  Putting an 8 on the form would be knowingly incorrect, which is not a good way to conduct business.  IRS now requires e-file for 990's; how do I get the matter resolved?
