Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Below are some answers to frequently asked questions:


IMC Website


I’m getting errors when trying to register or log onto the IMC website

Accounts on the IMC website are for content editors and website administrators. Unfortunately, the current login system errors out and there is no timeline for fixing it at the moment.

If you are trying to register for a retreat, please visit IRC. To sign up  to attend events in person that require registration, each event should have a registration link.

Donations


How do I make a teacher donation?

There are a few ways to donate to teachers. To donate to teachers online, please visit the IMC donation page and enter a teacher’s name and donation amount into the donation form.

Teacher donations by check can also be mailed to IMC. Please see the IMC donation page for details.

When attending events in person at IMC, teacher donations can be either made by cash, check, or credit card. If you have questions, please feel free to ask one of our event volunteers for assistance.

Please note that teacher donations are not tax deductible.

How do I cancel, start, or change recurring donations?

To cancel a recurring donation made via your PayPal account, please log into your PayPal account and follow these instructions to stop the recurring donation.

To cancel a recurring donation that directly bills your credit or debit card, please contact us at contact@insightmeditationcenter.org and we will cancel the automatic payments for you.

Recurring donations can only be started or cancelled, and cannot be changed or modified. If you wish to change the amount of your recurring donation, please cancel the recurring donation first and setup a new recurring donation.

You can start a recurring donation by going to the IMC donation page and checking the Make this a monthly recurring gift (“Subscription”) option in the online donation section.


Tax Receipts for Dana (Donations)


Will I receive tax receipts for my dana (donations)?

If you donate via our website or PayPal during the year then receipts for the total donations during the year will go out to the associated email by January 31 of the following year.

Receipts for donations that come in via check/credit card/stock donations are sent out after each quarter (by the end of the following month) via post to the associated address.

If you make a donation using Square (e.g., IMC in-person donation kiosk), we can’t create annual or quarterly receipts as we have no way of matching those donations to the donors. The digital receipt that you receive at the time of donation via Square is intended to be used for tax purposes.

Please note that in all cases, donations to named teachers are not tax deductible.
