Under that guidance, CNYCN and Affiliate may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of CNYCN and Affiliate and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (UBIT). The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities for years 2013 and 2012.CNYCN and Affiliate files its form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the office of the states attorney general for New York State. CNYCN and Affiliate is generally no longer subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service for years before 2010. true AAFE Community Development Fund 108 Nolfork Street New York NY 10002 134103352 50000 0 Housing Counseling Bklyn Housing & Family 415 Albemarle Road Brooklyn NY 11218 112412584 70000 0 Housing counseling BROOKLYN BAR ASSOCIATION VOLU 123 REMSEN ST Brooklyn NY 11201 113155182 40000 0 Sandy recovery Brooklyn Housing and Family S 415 Albemarle Road Brooklyn NY 11218 112412584 25000 0 Sandy recovery CAMBA 1720 Church Ave Brooklyn NY 11225 112480339 50000 0 Sandy Recovery Chhaya Community Development Corp 37-43 77 Street 2nd Floor Jackson Heights NY 11372 113580935 100000 0 Housing Counseling City Bar Justice Center 42 West 44th Street New York NY 10036 136003018 70000 0 Sandy recovery Cypress Hills LDC 625 Jamaica Avenue Brooklyn NY 11208 112683663 100000 0 Housing counseling Fedcap Rehabilitation Service 211 W 14TH ST New York NY 10011 135645879 50000 0 Housing Counseling Fedcap Rehabilitation Service 211 W 14TH ST New York NY 10011 135645879 50000 0 Sandy Recovery Greater Sheepshead Bay Dev 2107 E 22nd St Brooklyn NY 11229 112527097 45000 0 Sandy recovery JASA Legal Srvs for Elderly in Queens 132 W31st Street New York NY 10001 132620896 100000 0 Legal services Legal Aid Society 199 Water Street 4th Fl New York NY 10038 135562265 75000 0 Sandy recovery Legal Aid Society 199 Water Street 4th Floor New York NY 10038 135562265 100000 0 Legal services Legal Services NYC 350 Broadway 6th Floor New York NY 10013 132600199 100000 0 Sandy Recovery Legal Services NYC 350 Broadway 6th Floor New York NY 10013 132600199 500000 0 Education and Outreach Legal Services NYC-Bronx 350 Broadway 6th Floor New York NY 10013 132600199 100000 0 Housing Counseling MFY LEGAL SERVICES INC 299 BROADWAY New York NY 10007 132622748 100000 0 Housing Counseling MFY LEGAL SERVICES INC 299 BROADWAY New York NY 10007 132622748 120000 0 Sandy recovery MHANY Management Inc 2-4 Nevins Street 2nd Fl Brooklyn NY 11217 721303737 19722 0 Housing Counseling MHANY Management Inc 2-4 Nevins Street 2nd Fl Brooklyn NY 11217 721303737 80000 0 Sandy Recovery NEDAP 299 Broadway Suite 706 New York NY 10007 133842270 100000 0 Education and Outreach Neighborhood Housing Ser NB 1178 East Gun Hill Road Bronx NY 10469 133098397 100000 0 Housing Counseling Neighborhood Housing Services 162-04 South Road Jamaica NY 11433 237398279 50000 0 Sandy Recovery Neighborhood Housing Services of Jamaica 162-04 South Road Jamaica NY 11433 237398279 100000 0 Housing counseling Neighborhood Housing Srvs of Staten Is 770 Castleton Ave Staten Island NY 10310 205689079 100000 0 Sandy recovery Neighborhood Housing Svs- Bronx 848 Concourse Village West Bronx NY 10451 133098397 100000 0 Housing counseling NEIGHBORS HELPING NEIGHBORS 621 Degraw Street Brooklyn NY 11217 113059958 100000 0 Housing Counseling NEW ECONOMY PROJECT 176 Grand Ave Ste 300 New York NY 10013 133842270 100000 0 Education and Outreach New York Mortgage Coalition 50 Broad Street Suite 1125 New York NY 10004 300021150 100000 0 Education and Outreach NY Legal Assistance Group 7 Hanover Square 18th Floor New York NY 10004 133505428 100000 0 Housing Counseling NY Legal Assistance Group 7 Hanover Square 18th Floor New York NY 10004 133505428 50000 0 Sandy Recovery NY Legal Assistance Group 7 Hanover Square 18th Floor New York NY 10004 133505428 64129 0 Build it Back Parodneck Foundation 121 Sixth Avenue Suite 501 New York NY 10013 112229635 105000 0 Housing counseling Pratt Area Community Council 201 Dekalb Avenue Brooklyn NY 11205 112451752 100000 0 Housing counseling Pratt Area Community Council 201 Dekalb Avenue Brooklyn NY 11205 112451752 50000 0 Sandy recovery Queens Legal Services Corpora 40 Worth Street 6th Floor New York NY 10013 132605604 100000 0 Housing Counseling Queens Legal Services Corpora 40 Worth Street 6th Floor New York NY 10013 132605604 125000 0 Sandy recovery QUEENS VOLUNTEER LAWYERS PROJ 9035 148TH ST Jamaica NY 11435 113091697 45000 0 Sandy recovery South Brooklyn Legal Services 105 Court Street Brooklyn NY 11205 132605605 100000 0 Housing Counseling South Brooklyn Legal Services 105 Court Street Brooklyn NY 11205 132605605 125000 0 Sandy Recovery South Brooklyn Legal Services 105 Court Street Brooklyn NY 11205 132605605 400000 0 Legal Services Southern Brooklyn CommOrg 4520 18th Avenue Brooklyn NY 11204 113317929 50000 0 Housing counseling Staten Is Legal Srvcs 350 Broadway New York NY 10013 132600199 17683 0 Build it Back Staten Island Legal Services 350 Broadway New York NY 10013 132600199 100000 0 Housing Counseling Staten Island Legal Services 350 Broadway New York NY 10013 132600199 50000 0 Sandy Recovery 48 7 Provide shelter for Sandy Victims 182 915000 Grantmaker's Description of How Grants are Used CNYCN has an extensive process of monitoring the use of grant funds which involves monthly data reporting, site visits, technical assistance and training.
