IRS Filings

​Update: April 10, 2017

No Division or County Board in NYS is to file a 990 or any form with the IRS.  The State Board is completing everything. 

We all know the National Board had promised to complete and file the forms for tax year 2016. Unfortunately, a promise to file the report for 2016 was deemed meaningless by our current National President and Treasurer, without a vote by the National Board. 

Your New York State Board will honor the promise and insure compliance with the IRS for all NY divisions and county boards.

Sisters,

You may hear that today the National Board advised each State Board that each Division must file with the IRS a 990 by May 15th. New York members PLEASE pay no attention to this. Although the National Board has chosen to forget the promise it made to the delegates at the National Convention, your New York State Board has taken action to make certain we all stay in compliance with all filings. New York State divisions and county boards do not have to take any action.

Please thank our Sisters Jacqueline Clute, Kathryn M Keane and Christina Parisi for their help and guidance in this.

​Your State Board is working hard to help Divisions and County Boards. Your State Board honors its promises to its members!
