Non-profit registration as an leagal organzation

As an organization operating in DC, you must file every 2 years with the DC government’s Registration Office (www.dcra.dc.gov). Check your orgs current status by calling them at (202) 442-4432.

If you were incorporated in another state, you need to make sure your registration is up to date in that state too (see your incorporation docs to figure that out, most nonprofits are actually incorporated in Delaware because it is the easiest place to do so… the second easiest place is DC).
