Ahora que la temporada de impuestos ha terminado y se acercan los períodos pico de desastres, es un buen momento para que los contribuyentes piensen en proteger información de impuestos y financiera importante como parte de un plan de emergencia ante desastres. Los desastres pueden tener un impacto inmediato y duradero en personas, organizaciones y negocios. La preparación durante todo el año es importante, y la celebración de la Semana de Preparación para Huracanes y el Mes de Concienciación sobre Incendios Forestales brinda la oportunidad de realizar una evaluación anual de la preparación. En lo que va de 2025, la Agencia Federal para el Manejo de Emergencias (FEMA, por sus siglas en inglés) ha emitido 12 declaraciones de desastre mayor en nueve estados afectados por tormentas invernales, inundaciones, tornados, incendios forestales, deslizamientos de tierra y deslaves. Para consultar las declaraciones de desastre actuales e información acerca de cómo se emiten, consulte la página de Desastres Actuales de FEMA. El IRS ofrece consejos para ayudar a los contribuyentes a proteger su información financiera y de impuestos personal cuando ocurre un desastre. Proteja y haga copias de documentos importantes Los documentos originales, como declaraciones de impuestos, tarjetas de Seguro Social, actas de matrimonio, actas de nacimiento y documentos de propiedad de tierras, deben guardarse en un contenedor impermeable, en un lugar seguro. También se recomienda a los contribuyentes que hagan copias de estos documentos importantes y las guarden en un lugar secundario, como una caja de seguridad o con una persona de confianza que viva en otra zona. Además, los documentos escaneados pueden guardarse en una memoria USB para facilitar su portabilidad. Mantenga un archivo de los objetos de valor Los contribuyentes deben usar sus teléfonos celulares u otros dispositivos móviles para registrar sus artículos de alto valor. Una lista sencilla con fotos o videos recientes puede ayudar a respaldar las solicitudes de seguro o beneficios tributarios después de un desastre. Los libros de trabajo del IRS para pérdidas por desastres, disponibles en la Publicación 584, Registro de Pérdidas por Hechos Fortuitos (Imprevistos), Desastres y Robos (Propiedad de Uso Personal), y la Publicación 584-B, Registro de trabajo para pérdidas por accidentes comerciales, desastres y robos (en inglés), pueden ayudar a personas y empresas a hacer listas de sus pertenencias o equipo comercial. Reconstrucción de documentación La reconstrucción o reemplazo de documentos después de un desastre podría ser necesaria para fines tributarios, para solicitar asistencia federal o para el reembolso del seguro. Un estimado preciso de las pérdidas podría significar la disponibilidad de más préstamos y subvenciones. Los contribuyentes que hayan perdido parte o la totalidad de sus documentos durante un desastre deben visitar la página web del IRS acerca de la Reconstrucción de archivos luego de un desastre natural o accidente como primer paso. Los empleadores deben verificar los bonos fiduciarios Los desastres pueden afectar la capacidad de una empresa para realizar depósitos de impuestos federales a tiempo. Los empleadores que usan proveedores de servicios de nómina deben verificar si el proveedor cuenta con bonos fiduciarios que los proteja en caso de incumplimiento. El IRS les recuerda a los empleadores que deben elegir sabiamente a sus proveedores de servicios de nómina. El IRS puede proporcionar alivio tributario después de un desastre Tras la emisión de una declaración de desastre mayor o medidas de emergencia por parte de FEMA, el IRS podría posponer ciertas fechas límite de presentación y pago de impuestos para los contribuyentes que residen o tienen un negocio en ciertos condados afectados por el desastre. El IRS proporciona información detallada acerca de los estados y condados que han recibido ayuda en la página de Alivio en situaciones de desastre del IRS. Los contribuyentes en las zonas afectadas no necesitan llamar para solicitar este alivio. El IRS identifica automáticamente a los contribuyentes ubicados en la zona de desastre cubierta y aplica el alivio para la declaración y el pago. Las personas afectadas por un desastre pueden comunicarse con la Línea Directa de Desastres del IRS al 866-562-5227 para resolver sus dudas tributarias con un especialista del IRS capacitado para manejar asuntos relacionados con desastres. Los contribuyentes que no residen ni tienen un negocio en un área de desastre cubierta, pero que sufrieron el impacto de un desastre, deben llamar al 866-562-5227 para averiguar si califican para el alivio tributario por desastre y para analizar otras opciones disponibles. Más información acerca de desastres Se recomienda a los contribuyentes que revisen publicaciones y sitios web que puedan ofrecer más ayuda para prepararse con anticipación ante desastres: Cómo prepararse ante un desastre Publicación 547 (SP), Hechos Fortuitos, Desastres y Robos Publicación 583, Cómo iniciar una empresa y mantener archivos (en inglés) FEMA.gov DisasterAssistance.gov Listo.gov Back to top         Gracias por suscribirse a Consejos Tributarios en Español del IRS, un servicio de correo electrónico del IRS.

IR-2025-55: IRS reminder: Protect important records in case a natural disaster strikes

IRS Newswire April 30, 2025
News Essentials What's Hot News Releases IRS - The Basics IRS Guidance Media Contacts Facts & Figures Around The Nation e-News Subscriptions The Newsroom Topics Multimedia Center Noticias en Español Radio PSAs Tax Scams The Tax Gap Fact Sheets IRS Tax Tips Armed Forces Latest News Home IRS Resources Contact My Local Office Filing Options Forms & Instructions Frequently Asked Questions News Taxpayer Advocate Where to File IRS Social Media	Issue Number:  IR-2025-55 Inside This Issue IRS reminder: Protect important records in case a natural disaster strikes WASHINGTON — The Internal Revenue Service reminds taxpayers that disaster preparation season kicks off soon with National Wildfire Awareness Month in May and National Hurricane Preparedness Week, May 4-10. With tax season over and peak periods for disasters approaching, now is a good time for taxpayers to think about protecting important tax and financial information as part of a disaster emergency plan. Disasters can have an immediate and lasting impact on individuals, organizations and businesses. Year-round preparation is important, and observing Hurricane Preparedness Week and Wildfire Awareness Month provides an opportunity for an annual assessment of readiness. So far in 2025, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has issued 12 major disaster declarations in nine states impacted by winter storms, flooding, tornadoes, wildfires, landslides and mudslides. For current disaster declarations and information on how declarations are made, see FEMA's Current Disasters page. The IRS offers tips to help taxpayers protect personal financial and tax information when disaster hits. Protect and make copies of important documents Original documents such as tax returns, Social Security cards, marriage certificates, birth certificates and land ownership documents need to be secured in a waterproof container in a safe space. Taxpayers are also encouraged to make copies of these important documents and store them in a secondary location such as a safe deposit box or with a trusted person who lives in a different area. In addition, scanned documents can be stored on a flash drive for easy portability. Keep a record of valuables Taxpayers should use cell phones or other mobile devices to make a record of high-value items. A simple list with current photos or videos can help support claims for insurance or tax benefits after a disaster. The IRS disaster loss workbooks in Publication 584, Casualty, Disaster and Theft Loss Workbook (Personal-Use Property), and Publication 584-B, Business Casualty, Disaster and Theft Loss Workbook, can help individuals and businesses make lists of belongings or business equipment. Rebuilding records Reconstructing or replacing records after a disaster may be required for tax purposes, claiming federal assistance or insurance reimbursement. Accurate loss estimates could mean more loan and grant money may be available. Taxpayers who have lost some or all their records during a disaster should visit IRS's Reconstructing Records webpage as a first step. Employers should check fiduciary bonds Disasters can impact a business' ability to make timely federal tax deposits. Employers using payroll service providers should check if the provider has a fiduciary bond in place that can protect the employer in the event of default by the payroll service provider. The IRS reminds employers to choose their payroll service providers carefully. IRS can provide tax relief after a disaster After FEMA issues a major disaster or emergency measures declaration, the IRS may postpone certain tax filing and payment deadlines for taxpayers who reside or have a business in certain counties affected by the disaster. The IRS provides details on states and counties that have been issued relief on the IRS Disaster Relief page. Taxpayers in the affected areas do not need to call to request this relief. The IRS automatically identifies taxpayers located in the covered disaster area and applies filing and payment relief. Those impacted by a disaster can contact the IRS Disaster Hotline at 866-562-5227 to ask their tax-related questions of an IRS specialist trained to handle disaster-related issues. Taxpayers who do not reside or have a business in a covered disaster area but suffered impact from a disaster should call 866-562-5227 to find out if they qualify for disaster tax relief and to discuss other available options. More disaster information Taxpayers are encouraged to review publications and websites that may offer further assistance in advance preparation for disasters: IRS.gov: Preparing for a disaster IRS Publication 547, Casualties, Disasters, and Thefts IRS Publication 583, Starting a Business and Keeping Records FEMA.gov Disasterassistance.gov Ready.gov     Back to Top         Thank you for subscribing to the IRS Newswire, an IRS e-mail service.

IR-2025-54: IRS highlights key forms, topics for tax-exempt organizations ahead of May 15 filing deadline

IRS Newswire April 25, 2025
News Essentials What's Hot News Releases IRS - The Basics IRS Guidance Media Contacts Facts & Figures Around The Nation e-News Subscriptions The Newsroom Topics Multimedia Center Noticias en Español Radio PSAs Tax Scams The Tax Gap Fact Sheets IRS Tax Tips Armed Forces Latest News Home IRS Resources Contact My Local Office Filing Options Forms & Instructions Frequently Asked Questions News Taxpayer Advocate Where to File IRS Social Media	Issue Number:    IR-2025-54 Inside This Issue IRS highlights key forms, topics for tax-exempt organizations ahead of May 15 filing deadline WASHINGTON — As the May 15 filing deadline approaches for tax-exempt organizations, the Internal Revenue Service highlights important forms and topics to ensure successful and timely filing. The annual filing due date for certain returns filed by tax-exempt organizations is the 15th day of the 5th month after the end of an organization's accounting period. Those operating on a calendar year basis must file a return by May 15. Returns due include: Form 990-series annual information returns (Forms 990, 990-EZ, 990-PF). Form 990-N, Electronic Notice (e-Postcard) for Tax-Exempt Organizations Not Required to File Form 990 or Form 990-EZ. Form 990-T, Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return (other than certain trusts). Form 4720, Return of Certain Excise Taxes Under Chapters 41 and 42 of the Internal Revenue Code. Electronic filing Electronic filing ensures acknowledgement that the IRS has received the return and reduces processing time, making it easy to comply with reporting requirements. Organizations should remember the following when e-filing: Organizations filing a Form 990, 990-EZ, 990-PF or 990-T for calendar year 2023 must file their returns electronically. Private foundations filing a Form 4720 for calendar year 2023 must file the form electronically. Charities and other tax exempt organizations can file these forms electronically through an IRS Authorized e-File Provider. Organizations eligible to submit a Form 990-N must do so electronically and can submit it through Form 990-N (e-Postcard) on IRS.gov. Common errors The IRS encourages organizations to thoroughly review their forms to avoid common errors such as missing or incomplete schedules. If an organization's return is incomplete or is the wrong return for the organization, the return will be rejected. Extension requests Tax-exempt organizations may request a six-month automatic extension by filing a Form 8868, Application for Extension of Time to File an Exempt Organization Return. In situations where tax is due, extending the time for filing a return does not extend the time for paying tax. Online workshops The IRS provides online workshops to help tax-exempt organizations comply with filing requirements. These workshops are designed to help organizational leadership understand the benefits, limitations and expectations of exempt organizations.
