I'll let someone else say this with any degree of confidence, but in the back of my mind is a vague thought that there may be @ $20K/yr threshold before you really need to do anything. However that is only a vague thought and not to be relied upon. Regardless, the issue is to apply you need to have an organization structure and budgets and projections and proposed endeavors/mission statement type stuff. All of which has been a source of debate in the past and I suspect remains the real sticking point to moving forward with any IRS application. Once you have that stuff, the application is not all that bad to complete as I recall.
