Group Exemption Authorization Form

Review, sign and submit the authorization form.

Modern Woodmen of America maintains a federal group tax exemption with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) that eligible chapters may use instead of applying for their own federal tax exemption. The IRS recently updated its group exemption requirements. To remain included under Modern Woodmen's group tax exemption, each chapter must provide written authorization confirming its participation.

Complete the form below to authorize your chapter's inclusion in Modern Woodmen's annual group exemption filing.

Follow these steps to complete this requirement:
  1. Review the group exemption authorization form.
  2. Print and sign the form.
  3. Take a photo of the form with your phone or scan it to your computer.
  4. Upload the signed form(s) below.

Note: A separate signed authorization form is required for each chapter you lead. Please print and sign a form for each chapter you run, then upload them all below.

NOTE: To upload multiple documents, you’ll need to select all the files and attach as a group. When a single file has been successfully uploaded, the screen will display the document title. If you’ve uploaded a batch of more than one file, the number of files successfully uploaded will be displayed.
