“The tax preparer submits a copy of the form 990 and all related schedules to the top financial official for initial review, who then submits it to the top management official for review and discussion. They submit the form 990 to the audit/finance committee for review. Once all review changes have been made, the 990 gets forwarded to each board member one week prior to scheduling a board of directors meeting. At the board of directors meeting, the form 990 officially is presented to the board. After review and discussion, the board of directors vote whether to approve the form 990. The form 990 is provided to each voting member of the organization's governing body.”
