FORM 990, Part XII, Line 2C:

“The process has not changed from prior year.”

Financial Statement Notes

Part X, Line 2:

“The Links is exempt from Federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code and is recognized as such by the Internal Revenue Service. The provisions included in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America provide consistent guidance for the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements and prescribe a threshold of "more likely than not" for recognition of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Links performed an evaluation of uncertain tax positions as of April 30, 2014, and determined that there were no matters that would require recognition in the financial statements or which may have any effect on its tax-exempt status. As of April 30, 2014, the statute of limitations for fiscal years 2011 through 2014 remains open with the U.S. Federal jurisdiction or the various states and local jurisdictions in which the Links files tax returns.”

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Links is exempt from Federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code and is recognized as such by the Internal Revenue Service. The provisions included in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America provide consistent guidance for the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements and prescribe a threshold of "more likely than not" for recognition of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Links performed an evaluation of uncertain tax positions as of April 30, 2014, and determined that there were no matters that would require recognition in the financial statements or which may have any effect on its tax-exempt status. As of April 30, 2014, the statute of limitations for fiscal years 2011 through 2014 remains open with the U.S. Federal jurisdiction or the various states and local jurisdictions in which the Links files tax returns.
