Chris was amazing! He reviewed our documents, answered all of our questions (so quickly!), and helped us understand the entire process. We just earned our 501(c)(3) designation (January 2025), and we are thrilled! I could not ask for a better consultant on this process! Thank you, Chris!

We are an all-volunteer organization and our non-profit status was revoked due to past treasurers failure to file. I tried to handle the reinstatement myself and became overwhelmed. We then contracted with a for-profit company, but when I asked some difficult questions they went quiet. Then I found Chris’ website and resources.

His knowledge and experience was evident from the first conversation. His tips, resources, and examples are fantastic. Be ready when you schedule a call because there will be feedback and you should capture everything he suggests. I had two phone calls with him and his recommendations were all excellent. A reinstatement is more complex than an application and his expertise guided us through it with flying colors.

Chris warned us that applications, especially reinstatements, could take several months (6 or more). I submitted our packet and had a reinstatement letter within 2 months with the FIRST submission! He even helped us with resources to respond to the penalties that had been levied against us due to the late filings. The IRS waived them all, which literally saved our organization.

The application and process is not easy, and you should be prepared to perform a significant amount of work to complete the application. Chris’ resources will not do it for you, but with his help and guidance you will be successful. I cannot thank him enough for his time and help, and would recommend him without hesitation.
