Connecticut Tax-Exempt Organizations with Financial and NTEE Codes

Exempt organization information is extracted monthly from the Internal Revenue Service’s Business Master File. The dataset provides records for Connecticut-based organizations, containing fields such as EIN, NAME, STATE, ASSET_AMT, INCOME_AMT, REVENUE_AMT, and NTEE_CD. It is updated nightly and maintained by the State of Connecticut.

Use Cases

• Analyze the distribution of ASSET_AMT and INCOME_AMT across different NTEE_CD categories to profile financial health of non-profits.
• Model the relationship between ACTIVITY Codes and REVENUE_AMT to identify high-impact charitable sectors.
• Segment organizations by STATUS Code and TAX_PERIOD to monitor compliance and exemption trends over time.
• Use EIN and STATE fields to join this dataset with other state-level registries for a unified non-profit directory.

Strengths

• Data is updated nightly, ensuring current information on organization status and finances.
• Contains specific financial metrics like ASSET_AMT, INCOME_AMT, and REVENUE_AMT for quantitative analysis.
• Includes standardized NTEE_CD codes for consistent categorization of non-profit missions.
• Sourced directly from the IRS Business Master File, providing authoritative exemption and ruling data.

Limitations

• Dataset is limited to organizations in Connecticut, restricting geographic analysis.
• Split-interest trusts are explicitly excluded, creating a gap for certain fiduciary entities.
• Row count and total data size are unknown, making it difficult to assess overall scale.
