Form And Line ReferenceFormAndLineReferenceDescExplanationExplanationTxt
Pt X, Line 2SAWS is exempt from federal income taxes under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the Code, however, income from certain activities not related to the organization's tax-exempt purpose may be subject to taxation as unrelated business income. The organization had no income from unrelated business activities in the year ended September 30, 2018 and was, therefore, not required to file Federal Form 990-T (Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return).
