A Form 990-T due on May 15, 2020 has not been postponed and will still need filed on May 15, 2020.

IRS Notice 2020-18 does not apply to these information returns. Therefore, exempt organizations with a Form 990 filing date of May 15, 2020 are not afforded relief and will still need to file the return on May 15, 2020.
