The Organization has filed for and received income tax exemptions in the various jurisdictions where they are required to do so. The Organization files Form 990 tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in New York State. With few exceptions, as of August 31, 2024, the Organization is no longer subject to U.S. federal or state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years ended prior to August 31, 2021. The tax returns for years ended August 31, 2021 through August 31, 2024, are still subject to potential audit by the IRS and taxing authorities in New York State. Management of the Organization believes they have no material uncertain tax positions and, accordingly, they have not recognized any liability for unrecognized tax benefits.

RCB experienced significant administrative turnover due to the COVID-19 pandemic that created significant logistical and operational challenges. In addition, staff and Board operations were disrupted by health restrictions, remote work transitions, and delays in gathering required financial information. These conditions made it unreasonably difficult to prepare a complete and accurate return by the original deadline.
