I visited the IRS web site and searched for 'careers'.  One of the results was http://jobs.irs.gov/home.html.  That sounds like a good place to start.

I've been an international tax lawyer for 30 years, and the best advice I can give you is to seek out a qualified professional advisor.  Here are a few guidelines:\n\n*  If you are a US citizen or resident alien, you must pay tax on all your income worldwide.  (Resident alien status is determined under tax rules and your immigration or visa status is only one factor.)\n\n*  If you are a nonresident alien for tax purposes, you still must pay tax on the income from your US business.  An advisor can help you determine how much income is attributable to that business, and possibly give you some ideas for reducing your US taxable income.\n\n*  If you carry on your US business through a US corporation, the corporation is taxable on its income, and you are taxable on dividends, interest, royalties, and other amounts received from the corporation that are from sources within the US.\n\n*  If you carry on a US business through a foreign corporation, then the corporation is the taxpayer.  The corporation will be subject to tax on the income of the business, and may also have to pay "branch profits tax" when funds are remitted outside the US.  Alternatively, you may be taxed on dividends you receive from the corporation out of US profits.  This is not a choice you make, but it depends upon the law applicable to you (including any relevant income tax treaty).\n\nThere are more relevant rules, which your advisor can tell you about.

A big but noble task, I hope you pull it off.\n\nFirst, incorporate.  File articles of incorporation as a nonprofit with your state's secretary of state.  Articles for this are commonly available at the SOS website, call them if you have questions.\n\nSecond, adopt bylaws.  Google "bylaws nonprofit [name of your state]" and see what forms you can find.\n\nThird, get a Federal Employer Identification Number for your company -- you can do this online at the first link below.\n\nFourth, go to second link below to download a Form 1023 and instructions for Form 1023.  You'll fill the Form 1023 out and file it with IRS.  You'll be filing as a 501(c)(3) public charity (as opposed to private foundation), assuming that most of your funds will come from the general public (as opposed to from a single source).  The Form 1023 is long (28 pages) and will take some time, but the good news is it will help you think through some of the important issues.  The last 2 pages are a checklist of all the filings you'll need to submit with the Form 1023.\n\nFifth, send the Form 1023 and any other necessary docs (see Form 1023 checklist) to IRS with the filing fee (either $150 or $500 depending on your expected revenues -- see Part XI of Form 1023).  Then wait -- it takes over 6 months for IRS to even respond to 1023's nowadays.  When they respond, they'll assign an agent who will likely write a letter telling you here are additional things we need, and we also have these questions.... provide what they ask for adn respond to questions in letter and mail it all back to the agent who wrote you; this process may repeat itself once or twice.\n\nOnce IRS issues a 'determination letter,' you are officially a 501(c)(3) and can give your donors a contribution (tax) deduction.  You can actually start raising funds before  you get the determination letter (it will take at least 6 months to get it and most likely, longer than that) if you tell your donors in writing that you have filed Form 1023 and expect to receive a determination letter eventually, but can't guarantee that IRS will grant you 501(c)(3) status.\n\nSixth, before you do any fundraising, call the secretary of state in each state in which you plan to solicit funds and ask them if you need to register your nonprofit prior to soliciting funds in that state.  Some require registration, some don't.\n\nSeventh, you need real estate.  You can either rent or buy, but either will require you to have some net worth in the nonprofit, hence the need for contributions.  Maybe a generous landowner will let you use a house for free, who knows.  Anyway, you will need several permits and licenses including a certificate of occupancy.... contact your city hall and tell them what you plan to do and ask what paperwork you need to fill out to get a certificate of occupancy (CO).\n\nThen contact the governmental unit (either county or city) that handles social services, or contact your county's juvenile court -- and tell them your plans and ask what permits or licenses you'll need.\n\nObviously, this is just a starter list but if you do the above it will at least help you get off the ground.  The paperwork, you can handle.  What you really need help with is money.  So once you get incorporated, you should start fundraising.\n\nYou'll also need real estate and business savvy -- so as you start soliciting funds, see if you can recruit knowledgeable people (not just friends, people who really know their stuff) to be on your Board of Directors.  For real estate folks you might consider just cold-calling a couple real estate companies (e.g., who list and fill commercial leases) and see if you can talk to someone young with an open mind, maybe they'll agree to serve on your board.  For either the real estate or business side, try to get a hold of a young lawyer at a mid- to large size firm, they're always eager to build their resumes.\n\nGood luck, I real

when changing your small business status to corp. or inc. you should always do it throough a business lawyer. It's a litle pricy but it'll insure that you make the right decisions at the right times. You are going to be better off in the long run. If you choose not to follow that route I'd suggest that you call the IRS locally and they can walk you through the whole process all over the phone. Most people aren't aware that these services exist at all. and they are free for the asking and the patience of being on hold a lot.

You do not need an attorney.  But do go to a cpa.  Not everyone is required to file.  If the IRS has not contacted you about this then you most likely get a notice from them regarding interest and penalties.   The penalties are based upon the amount owed and time frame.  A CPA will work to push the income to later years so that the penalties and interest will be lower.\n\nA CPA may even be able to get the penalties waive, but not interest.  THis alone is worth it 10 times over.

You need to have a tax pro intervene with the IRS and ask the IRS to let you make payments.  Once the IRS sends you the letter that says you can make payments, you can get a loan.  That is if your FICO, debt ratio etc. is in line.  I know this for a fact-I do loans and have done loans with that same scenario. Hope that helps!
