Tax Statements – US, 2016

This series contains financial reports created by the Illinois Prairie Path and filled with both the State of Illinois and the US Internal Revenue Service, as well as monthly budget statements to the Board of Directors. The Audits file includes reports and correspondence regarding independent audits sought by the IPP, once in 1987 and again in 1988. The Financial statements are monthly summaries of the budget status which are produced by IPP Treasurer for Board of Directors meetings. The Tax Exempt and Not for Profit Status file contains correspondence and notifications about the IPP seeking tax exempt and not for profit status.
