If a tax position is deemed not to meet this threshold, any unrecognized tax benefits and costs are estimated and recognized. Tax returns are routinely open for review by the tax authorities for three years from their due date. In certain circumstances, the statute of limitations may remain open indefinitely. As a nonprofit entity exempt from income taxes under section 501 (c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code, the Association may, however, be subject to tax on unrelated business income.
