Have they done anything wrong to you?

It’s trivial to file one return to gain reinstatement which is probably why they are still accepting tax deductible contributions. They can pretty much sign a blank form and get reinstated (which is essentially what Porno Pete did).
I am actively working with one of my senators to change the system. Three years of un-filed returns is close to five years. It’s nuts and it should be one-and done. In other words, if I started a 501(c)3 on January 1, 2013 and filed nothing, it would be spring of 2017 before I was revoked. The system is a joke.

I should have included that it may take a year to actually get reinstated but that is somewhat irrelevant.

As long as they cure the default within 12 months, the tax deductibility of contributions is retroactive.
In theory, they are losing some money on local sales taxes.
The bigger story is the utter sloppiness. The 990 is trivial for an organization of NARTH’s (small) size.It could be spun out with home budgeting software.

Upon what do you base this assumption/prediction?
