Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

The Agency is exempt from Federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). The Agency is, however, subject to the tax on unrelated business income, if any such income exists. In addition, the Agency qualifies for the charitable contribution deduction under Section 170(b)(1)(A) and has been classified as an organization that is not a private foundation under Section 509(a)(2). The Agency recognizes and measures its unrecognized tax positions and assesses the likelihood, based on their technical merit, that tax positions will be sustained upon examination based on the facts, circumstances and information available at the end of each period. The measurement of unrecognized tax positions is adjusted when new information becomes available, or when an event occurs that requires a change. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized income taxes, if identified, would be classified as additional income taxes in the Statements of Activities. Management has not identified any uncertain tax positions at September 30, 2017 and 2016. The Agency is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions, generally for a period of 3 years, however, there are currently no audits for any periods in progress.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Agency is exempt from Federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). The Agency is, however, subject to the tax on unrelated business income, if any such income exists. In addition, the Agency qualifies for the charitable contribution deduction under Section 170(b)(1)(A) and has been classified as an organization that is not a private foundation under Section 509(a)(2). The Agency recognizes and measures its unrecognized tax positions and assesses the likelihood, based on their technical merit, that tax positions will be sustained upon examination based on the facts, circumstances and information available at the end of each period. The measurement of unrecognized tax positions is adjusted when new information becomes available, or when an event occurs that requires a change. Interest and penalties associated with unrecognized income taxes, if identified, would be classified as additional income taxes in the Statements of Activities. Management has not identified any uncertain tax positions at September 30, 2017 and 2016. The Agency is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions, generally for a period of 3 years, however, there are currently no audits for any periods in progress.
