“Completed Form 990 drafts are presented to management for review by the paid tax preparer. Management reviews the Form 990 drafts both for accuracy and any questions they might have. Management schedules a meeting with the One Hope United Audit Committee for review of the draft Form 990. Draft reports are sent out to Committee Members approximately one week prior to the meeting. Audit Committee Members meet with the tax preparer, and management to review the drafts. Audit Committee Members then either request changes or recommend that the Form 990's be accepted. Their recommendation is then forwarded to Board Members. Board members are presented with copies of the Form 990 drafts and the opportunity to raise questions/request changes. Form 990's are filed with the IRS after all Board Members have been given the drafts and the opportunity to ask questions/request changes.”
