This video clarifies a common point of confusion: under IRC 508(c)(1)(A), churches are automatically considered 501(c)(3) tax-exempt without needing to file for IRS approval. However, the video argues that voluntarily filing for an official determination letter is often a wise strategic decision. Doing so provides undeniable proof of status for donors, which is vital for fundraising, and is frequently required to obtain state and local tax exemptions, such as for property taxes. The choice is not about becoming tax-exempt, but about strategically proving that status for practical operational benefits.
