Just heard about a PTO who recently received approval from their 1023 application--turnaround time was about 60 days.

Just an FYI - we received our approval today!! It took just a little over three months. I did not receive any questions or concerns about it! Sent 6/13/12, received 9/19/2012. Effective date is listed as 6/9/2012.

We applied (and was approved) for 501 status this past school year. we applied in August 2011 and everything was finalized in March 2012. Our determination letter states that our status became effective in August 2010, which is when we filed our articles of incorporation.

Thanks for responding! Our 1023 packet will be in the mail tomorrow, after I make several copies to keep just in case! The PTO Today Startup Toolkit, and this website, have been super helpful!
