the first question would be what type of NFP
1-shul
2-school
3- Public Charity
4 Private Foundation

next question would be
over $50k in annual revenue or under
3. for now under 50k

Be aware of possible multistate taxation issues. (Where s corps pass through status may not always be recognized etc).

What is the deal with purchasing thousands of dollars from Bestbuy for a reseller who provides the buyer with a reseler tax exempt number for bestbuy, can the IRS go after the buyer who purchased using the reselers tax exempt number (AKA buying groups)?

It would be the state... I guess technically yes, but the buyer can also register as he is also a reseller.
Unless the buyer is acting as an agent of the reseller... Would depend on the contract they have. (They *should* have)

So the buyer is legally allowed to act as an agent for the reseller (NY State) and purchase with the resellers tax exempt?.

There is definitely an aurgument to be made that the buyer is in essence a dropshipper, and the reseller is the end user customer of the dropshipper.

So if the end user is exempt, then the exemption may be passed through...

I'm really just googling here ;)

Thanks!

I also paid money to a Coopersmith testing center and got college credits. I doubt they will fill out 1098t but I do have copy of the check. Does that count?

I missed the efiling deadline for 2016. I was waiting for various paperwork that finally came. What's the risk if paper filing? Owed a refund.

Is there a higher risk of audit/scrutiny?
