Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's non-profit organization, Archewell, is back in good standing after a brief period of being declared "delinquent" in the US. The charity had to halt all fundraising and spending due to this designation, which was a result of failing to submit its annual report and registration fees on time. However, sources close to the couple insist that all necessary filings were submitted punctually.

The Department of Justice's website now lists the charity's status as "current," indicating that the issues have been resolved.

In a statement to The LA Times, the California attorney general’s press office confirmed: "After being in touch with our Registry of Charities and Fundraisers, the organization is current and in good standing."

Earlier, a letter from California’s Attorney General Rob Bonta noted that Archewell had let its registration fees lapse since the beginning of May, rendering the charity "not in good standing" and prohibiting it from soliciting or distributing charitable funds. The letter warned of possible penalties and the suspension or revocation of the charity's registration.
Despite this, a source told the Mirror that the fees were not actually late, claiming: "For whatever reason, it has not been cashed. As soon as the foundation learnt of the problem, they immediately issued another cheque. Harry and Meghan's team hope this will quickly resolve the issue within the next week."

A representative for Archewell later assured The Mirror: "We have diligently investigated the situation and can confirm that The Archewell Foundation remains fully compliant and in good standing. Due payments were made promptly and in accordance with the IRS’s processes and procedures. Furthermore, all necessary paperwork had been filed by the Foundation without error or wrongdoing."

PR Expert Ryan McCormick suggested to the Mirror that the damage is already done.
