I have worked at multiple non profits and have gone through annual audits at each of them in order to keep non-exempt status. Churches are not held to those same standards, not even close.

not all religious non-profits are churches, many religious non-profits do annual audits, and many less institutional non-religious non-profits don’t! if you want to require filed yearly audits for every non-profit go ahead and advocate for it, that’s not the same as “fees for some identities”

if your church wants to set up a separate 501(c)(3) for the food pantry they run i think thats fine and the pantry should be exempt as long as its not proselytizing and runs the same as a secular food bank would
