Overview of NA43

Each year the IRS sends the General Office of the Disciples of Christ a list showing the churches that are under its umbrella as a tax exempt entity. This eliminates the need for each church to apply for a 501-C3 exemption as a non-profit organization. Using the IRS Extract of Subordinate Churches program, the General Office then takes the list, compares it with the Yearbook database and notes additions, deletions, mergers and changes to names, address, etc. They then return it to the IRS who uses it to update their records.
