Or. Admin. Code § 137-010-0025
Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 12, December 1, 2024
Section 137-010-0025 - Reporting Period(1) Annual reports required by ORS Chapter 128 shall be on a calendar or fiscal year basis selected by the charitable organization, but such fiscal year must coincide with the reporting period used by the organization on returns prepared for the Internal Revenue Service. (2) Annual reports shall be submitted not later than four months and 15 days following the close of each calendar or fiscal year adopted by the charitable organization. (3) When the filing day as specified in section (2) of this rule falls on a Saturday, Sunday, or a legal holiday, the due date is the next business day following such Saturday, Sunday, or legal holiday. (4) Any change in the accounting year should be reported to the Charitable Activities Section, Department of Justice. A short period report is required to be filed with a change of accounting year, covering the financial transactions from the day after the close of the former accounting period to the day before the beginning of the new accounting period. This short period report is treated the same as any report required by the Act, and is due not later than four months and 15 days following the close of the period. (5) An extension of time may be granted by the Attorney General for a reasonable period for filing a report upon written application filed by or on behalf of the charitable organization stating, if requested, the reason that additional time should be allowed for filing the report beyond the ordinary due date. The request should be submitted on or before the due date for filing the report. An extension of time for filing any required information return with the Internal Revenue Service does not extend the time for filing the report with the Attorney General. However, if the charitable organization intends to file a copy of the federal reporting form as part of the report to the Attorney General and if a request for an extension of time has been submitted to the Internal Revenue Service, a signed copy of the federal extension request may be furnished as the form of similar request for an extension of time for filing the complete report with the Attorney General if provided to the Charitable Activities Section, Department of Justice, on or before the original due date for the annual report. The maximum length of any extension for filing an annual report will be no more than six months from the original due date of the report. (6) The Attorney General shall not consider an annual report or extension as timely filed if the annual report or extension was received by the Charitable Activities Section, Department of Justice, more than 5 business days after the due date described in this rule unless the organization furnishes proof that the annual report or extension was delivered to the Charitable Activities Section on or before the due date for the annual report or extension.Or.
