Non-profit

[helow]

I need help on issue relating to non-profit org. The org is registered in DC but operates from Virginia. for the past 6 years. Must it register in VA also. It has an agent in DC where it receives its correspondances. I understand that there is a disagreement between trustees and they want to oust a member. Some members went to DC and changed the agent's name to one of the members. The client who came to me found out this and he went and changed the agent's name to a friend of his. What does the law says about this? Who is authorized to make changes?

Client wants to find out who signed the SS-4 forms after the member who signed the document passed out couple of month ago. He think that other members also changed this information. He called the IRS but IRS declined to release the info as he is not on the form. How can he make sure that he is the autorized person who have the sole authority to amend the changes. He signed the 990 forms so he ultimately bears responsibilty. He is also the founder and manages the day to day operation of the orgnanization and his service is voluntary - does not earn a dime. Others have no involvment but they are creating a lot of problems for the org.

I would appreciate any advise on these questions.

Thanks

Helow

Do you REALLY want to get involved in this?

My advice to him would be to consult an attorney.
