Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“The system is a non-profit organization exempt from federal and state income taxation under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code. The system has filed for and received income tax exemptions in the various jurisdictions where it is required to do so. The system files a form 990 tax return in the u.s. Federal jurisdiction and is not required to file in new york state. With few exceptions, as of december 31, 2020, the system would not be subject to u.s. Federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for years ended prior to december 31, 2017. The tax returns for the years ended december 31, 2017 through december 31, 2020 are still subject to potential audit by the irs. Management of the system believes it has no material uncertain tax positions and, accordingly has not recognized any liability for unrecognized tax benefits.”
