Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b The Form 990 is reviewed by the accountants prior to signing and submission. Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 12c During board and officer meetings, attendees are asked if they have any conflicts of interests, which must be disclosed - verbally and in written form - to the Board and the Executive Director. Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 All policies and documents required to be provided to the public are available upon request. Amended Explanation 1). Due to New York State Law, the organization needed to have an audit review, passing a revenue threshold for the first time. Journal entries were strongly recommended by the accountants, producing updated financial statements. 2). Additionally, we are correcting the fiscal year end entered incorrectly in the originally Form 990. As a result of both of these items, we are filing an amended Form 990.
