Fees collected from states that participate in the compact are held by NCSBN for the ICNLCA. Part X, Line 2: NCSBN is exempt from income tax under the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3), except for income taxes pertaining to unrelated business income. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance that requires tax effects from uncertain tax positions to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements only if the position is more likely than not to be sustained if the position were to be challenged by a taxing authority. Management has determined there are no material uncertain tax positions that require recognition in the financial statements, as such, no provision for income taxes is reflected. Additionally, there is no interest or penalties recognized in the statements of activities or statements of financial position. NCSBN files Form 990 in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the state of Illinois. Part XII, Line 4b - Other Adjustments: Rescinded Grants 462.
