The Association is required to report unrelated business income to the Internal Revenue Service. The Association did not have any material unrelated business income tax expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. The Association recognizes or derecognizes tax positions on a "more likely than not" threshold. This applies to positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Association does not believe it has any material uncertain tax positions. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements. The Association follows the accounting guidance that creates a single model to address uncertainty in tax positions and clarifies accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in its financial statements. Under the requirements of this guidance, organizations could now be required to record an obligation as the result of tax positions they have historically taken on various tax exposure items. The Association is not required to record such an obligation. true Procedure for Monitoring Use of Grant Funds Inside U.S. Schedule I, Part I, Line 2 NSSHLA contributed funds to the ASHA Foundation for student scholarships.

Each individual shall disclose to the association any personal interest that he or she may have in any matter pending before the NSSLHA Council and shall refrain from participation in any decision on such matter. At the fall NSSLHA Executive Council meeting, the Council receives and reviews the association's conflict of interest statement. At that time, the policy is reviewed in detail, and any potential conflicts that may arise are discussed. Individual councilors are advised to recuse themselves from voting on NSSLHA grants if the submission is from the chapter where they are currently a student. Councilors are also prohibited from engaging in any regional or personal exchanges with individuals or companies that are sponsors of the national organization. Any violations of the conflict of interest policy will be overseen by the NSSLHA executive committee and handled on a case-by-case basis. The executive committee will decide the appropriate course of action, communication and resolution in these matters.
