Short Statement: The IRS has created a web-based software program, referred to as Cyber Assistant, that will guide applicants for tax-exempt status through the preparation of Form 1023, Application for Recognition of Exemption under Section 501(c)(3). The program, similar to tax preparation software, ensures that an application is complete before allowing the applicant to print out a PDF version of the completed Form 1023 for submission to the IRS. As the Forms 1023 completed using Cyber Assistant will not be electronically transmitted to the IRS, bar codes included on applications completed via Cyber Assistant will allow the IRS to scan the complete Form 1023 upon receipt from the applicant, making all of the data available electronically instead of the limited number of items that are currently transcribed from standard paper applications.
