Chain of Command Who should I call?

As of this school year, Long Beach Council PTA is made up of 46 PTA units at schools in LBUSD. We are a large council, divided into “areas” with an advisor for each. Area Advisors collect and help keep track of unit reports and materials that are due to council. They are also available to assist unit presidents by answering questions and providing guidance. Unit presidents should not hesitate to contact their area advisor with any questions or concerns. Units with questions or concerns should follow these steps, subscribing to PTA’s notion of “going through channels”:

Step 1 Contact Area Advisor – if further assistance is needed proceed to step 2 Step 2 Contact LBCPTA Director of Leadership (DOL) – Shannon Hilleshiem @[email protected] or the President- Erica

Dawson @ [email protected] - if further assistance is needed proceed to step 3

Sections 12586 and 12587, California Government Code

11 Cal. Code Regs. sections 301-307, 311 and 312

(FORM RRF-1)

The purpose of the Form RRF-1 is to assist the Attorney General’s Office with early detection of charity fiscal mismanagement and unlawful diversion of charitable assets. The Form RRF-1 is a short form calling for the most current information available to the charity and is designed to close the reporting delays on significant issues of charity fiscal accountability.

WHO MUST FILE A FORM RRF-1?

Every charitable nonprofit corporation, unincorporated association or trustee holding assets for charitable purposes that is required to register with the Attorney General’s Office is also required to annually file Form RRF-1 regardless of whether the corporation files Form 990s annually or is on extended reporting. Nonprofit corporations and organizations not required by law to register with the Attorney General are not required to file the RRF-1. These include:

(1) a government agency,

(2) a religious corporation sole,

(3) a cemetery corporation regulated under Chapter

19 of Division 3 of the Business and Professions

Code,

(4) a political committee defined in Section 82013 of

the California Government Code which is

required to and which does file with the

Secretary of State any statement pursuant to the

provisions of Article 2 (commencing with

Section 84200) of Chapter 4 of Title 9,

(5) a charitable corporation organized and operated

primarily as a religious organization,

educational institution or hospital,

(6) a health care service plan that is licensed

pursuant to Section 1349 of the Health and

Safety Code and reports annually to the

Department of Managed Health Care,

(7) corporate trustees which are subject to the

jurisdiction of the Commissioner of Financial

Institutions of the State of California or to the

Comptroller of Currency of the United States.

However, for testamentary trusts, such trustees

should file a copy of a complete annual financial

summary which is prepared in the ordinary

course of business. See Probate Code sections

1606016063.

WHAT TO FILE

ALL REGISTERED charities, regardless of receipts or assets, except for those listed above as being exempt, must file the Annual Registration Renewal Fee Report (RRF-1) with the Attorney General’s Registry of Charitable

Trusts four months and fifteen days after the close of the organization’s calendar or fiscal year.

Charities with total gross revenue or assets of $25,000 or more must file a copy of the IRS Form 990, 990-EZ, or 990PF and attachments with the Attorney General’s Registry of Charitable Trusts.

EXTENSIONS FOR FILING

Extensions of time for filing the RRF-1 will be allowed if an organization has received an extension from the Internal Revenue Service for filing the IRS Form 990, 990- PF, or 990EZ. An organization shall file both forms (RRF- 1 and IRS Form 990, 990-PF, or 990-EZ) with the Registry of Charitable Trusts at the same time, along with copies of all requests to IRS for an extension and, where approval of the extension is not automatic, a copy of each approved extension request.IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO SEND A COPY OF THE EXTENSION REQUEST PRIOR TO FILING THE REPORT.

ANNUAL REGISTRATION RENEWAL FEE

Charities and trustees registered with the Attorney General’s Registry of Charitable Trusts must file the appropriate registration renewal fee with the Annual Registration Renewal Fee Report (RRF-1) based on the registrant’s gross annual revenue for the preceding fiscal year, as follows:

Gross Annual Revenue Fee Less than $25,000 0 Between $25,000 and $100,000 $25 Between $100,001 and $250,000 $50 Between $250,001 and $1 million $75 Between $1,000,001 and $10 million $150 Between $10,000,001and $50 million $225 Greater than $50 million $300

Ledger Report (Receipts and Disbursements) filed in the green Treasurer Book

The Ledger Report is required to classify receipts, disbursements and electronic funds transfers (EFT) like bank charges or square sales into tax categories (to be used to prepare tax returns, as needed) and additional items required to complete the UTAR (Unit Treasurer Annual Report), as specified on page 10. The manual Ledger report is prepared by inputting each receipt, disbursement and EFT and then classify it to a category or item. An example of this report is on pages 13 and 14. Currently, many units are using accounting software such as PTAEZ, Quicken and Quick Books or Excel to input receipts, disbursements and EFTs into a system or spreadsheet resulting in detailed reports of account balances. Using these detailed reports, units may classify account balances (instead of individual receipts, disbursements and EFTs) to the appropriate categories/items and may file a hard copy in the green Treasurer Book to be used to prepare the UTAR and required tax returns. An example of an actual Ledger Report using account balances is on pages 15 thru 17. TIP: Following the category descriptions on page 10, prepare a worksheet or somehow annotate the budget line items to their appropriate tax category. This way, a decision does not have to made each time and it would insure consistent reporting.

Additional UTAR Instructions and Relationship to Tax Return Attached to the UTAR form is the “Treasurer’s Book Reconcilement for Annual Report” worksheet. When a figure is input into this worksheet, it automatically updates the UTAR itself. The monthly option is available, if it is easier to keep track of receipts and disbursements by month. However, if you are using account balances or have a total for the year, then input that amount into June and the UTAR will be automatically updated for the year. The worksheet is not required to be submitted. An actual example of the worksheet and resulting UTAR are on pages 18 and 19. The Ledger report includes an additional income tax category for “Sales” and expense category for “Cost of Goods Sold”. Spirit Wear may be reported in this way since it fits the criteria that the item is inventoried and are bought for resale. The cost of goods sold could include the cost of the shirts, the paypal or square fees associated with the sale, cost of advertising, etc. (See instructions for 990-EZ – line 7a thru line 7c). This reclassification may reduce your reportable fundraising and contributions ($ 15,000 or less) thus eliminating the need for a schedule G which could save in tax preparation cost. Please consult your tax professional. The actual example of the first page of a 990-EZ tax return shows how the figures that you have reported on the Green Ledger are used to prepare tax returns for units grossing over $ 50,000. Page 20.
