What is a 501(c)6?    

   The National Speakers Association is a tax exempt organization as defined in section 501(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code. Further, the National Speakers Association has been granted a group exemption ruling that may include any of its subordinate organizations (chapters).

The Chapter must obtain an Employer Identification Number (EIN, also know as a "tax ID number") from the IRS. Chapters may obtain their EIN using the necessary form SS-4 (available at www.irs.gov), or by telephoning the local IRS service center. Chapters must make sure to include the NSA group exemption number (GEN 7064) when completing the EIN application.  

We cannot include any Chapter in our group exemption that has not first obtained its own EIN.
