Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

PART X, LINE 2:

“Afsl has applied for and received a determination letter from the internal revenue service ("irs") to be treated as a tax-exempt entity pursuant to section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code and did not have any unrelated business income for the years ended december 31, 2020, 2019 and 2018. Afsl recognizes interest expense and penalties on income taxes related to uncertain tax positions in management and general expense on the statements of activities and statements of functional expenses. Afsl is required to file and does file tax returns with the irs and other taxing authorities. Accordingly, these financial statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes and afsl has no other tax positions which must be considered for disclosure. Tax returns filed by the organization are subject to examination by the internal revenue service for a period of three years. While no income tax returns are currently being examined by the irs, tax years since 2017 remain open.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0AFSL HAS APPLIED FOR AND RECEIVED A DETERMINATION LETTER FROM THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE ("IRS") TO BE TREATED AS A TAX-EXEMPT ENTITY PURSUANT TO SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE AND DID NOT HAVE ANY UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020, 2019 AND 2018. AFSL RECOGNIZES INTEREST EXPENSE AND PENALTIES ON INCOME TAXES RELATED TO UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS IN MANAGEMENT AND GENERAL EXPENSE ON THE STATEMENTS OF ACTIVITIES AND STATEMENTS OF FUNCTIONAL EXPENSES. AFSL IS REQUIRED TO FILE AND DOES FILE TAX RETURNS WITH THE IRS AND OTHER TAXING AUTHORITIES. ACCORDINGLY, THESE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DO NOT REFLECT A PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES AND AFSL HAS NO OTHER TAX POSITIONS WHICH MUST BE CONSIDERED FOR DISCLOSURE. TAX RETURNS FILED BY THE ORGANIZATION ARE SUBJECT TO EXAMINATION BY THE INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE FOR A PERIOD OF THREE YEARS. WHILE NO INCOME TAX RETURNS ARE CURRENTLY BEING EXAMINED BY THE IRS, TAX YEARS SINCE 2017 REMAIN OPEN.
