Is there a state application as well as a federal application for tax-exempt status?
In most states, there is no separate state application for tax-exempt status. These states simply require notice be given to the state regarding federal tax-exempt status. There are a handful of states which require a simple, 1 to 2 page form that must be prepared. (See the State Requirement Chart). California, New York and Pennsylvania are the only states which require a separate state application process.
