  • If you’re running campaigns or have recurring online giving, keep NY status clean and confirmable.

When a clean close-out makes sense

  • You stopped soliciting in New York and want to reduce ongoing obligations
  • You no longer accept donations from New York residents (including online)
  • You want your public record to match reality (no lingering “not current” labels)

What clean close-out typically involves

  • Confirming last solicitation activity and whether any final filings are needed
  • Submitting a withdrawal/close-out notice (as applicable)
  • Keeping proof of submission for future diligence questions

Important note

If you still have a Donate button or can accept gifts from New York residents, close-out may not be appropriate. Filing authority: New York Attorney General (Charities Bureau).
