Sheet 1: 1. Instructions

The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995: This information is collected in accordance with Section 3507 of the Paperwork

Reduction Act of 1995. The public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 3.5 hours per

response, including the time to review instructions, search existing data sources, gather and maintain data needed, and complete

and review the collection of information. Respondents should be aware that we may not conduct or sponsor, and you are not

required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB number. This collection of information is intended

for use by the VA Nonprofit Program Office (NPPO) in its annual Nonprofit Research and Education Corporation (NPC) report

to Congress, as well as for oversight of the NPCs. Your response to this information collection is mandatory, and failure to provide

the requested information may adversely affect your continued participation in the NPC program.

Privacy Act Statement: VA is asking you to provide the information requested in this report under the authority of 38 U.S.C.

section 7366 in order for the VA NPPO to compile its annual NPC report to Congress and maintain oversight for your NPC. Thus,

information in this NPC report is required by statute and necessarily will be available in the Congressional report as a public document.

VA may disclose your NPC report information as permitted by law. VA may make a "routine use" disclosure of the information for:

civil or criminal law enforcement; congressional communications; the collection of money owed to the United States; litigation in

which the United States is a party or has interest; the administration of VA programs, including verification of eligibility to participate;

and personnel administration. You must provide the requested information to VA to continue participation with the NPPO as an NPC.

This information also may be used for other purposes as authorized or required by law.

The VA Nonprofit Program Office (NPPO) is responsible for collecting and compiling the Annual

Reports to VA from all of the VA Affiliated Nonprofit Research and Education Corporations

(NPCs). If you have questions or concerns regarding the Excel Workbook used to compile this

Report or the submission instructions, please call or email Kimberly Collins, NPPO Director.

Phone: (202) 731-6973

Email: kimberly.collins@va.gov

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

1. This information is being collected primarily for the purpose of compiling the NPC Annual Report

to Congress. Congress mandated a combined Annual Report so that it could get information

about the entire NPC program on a consolidated basis nationwide. The combined NPC Annual

Report to Congress is also used by top level VA managers to assess the program's progress,

by the NPCs themselves to gauge their individual standing in relation to the entire group of

NPCs, and by organizations and individuals outside the government that have an interest in

the NPCs. Also, very importantly, the information submitted is used by the VA executives and

the NPPO to carry out some of the VA Secretary's oversight duties and responsibilities.

2. The NPC Annual Reports are needed by VA to accomplish its duties and responsibilities to

report to Congress, to provide needed information to senior VA executives, conduct some of

the oversight for the NPCs, and to aid the NPCs in accomplishing their fundamental objective

of providing support to VA research and education.

3. All NPCs must respond annually by submitting their NPC Annual Reports. Normally, the reports

will be prepared by the NPC's Executive Director, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer,

Controller or other person with equivalent authority, ability and access to the required financial

and other information.

4. NPPO estimates that it will take an average of 3-1/2 hours to prepare this Report.

However, because of the huge size disparities in the NPCs and other factors peculiar to some

of the NPCs, more or less time may be needed. If you would like to comment upon the estimated

burden of preparing this Report, please contact Kimberly Collins, NPPO Director, at

(202) 731-6973 or kimberly.collins@va.gov.

5. As noted above, this Annual Report is mandatory for all NPCs, regardless of size and whether

they are active or not. Each NPC will be responsible for submitting this Annual Report as long

as it is not properly, legally dissolved.

6. VA and NPPO do not and cannot assure confidentiality or privacy of any of the information

submitted in this Report. The information in this Report is required for and will be included in

VA's NPC Annual Report to Congress, which is required by statute and is a public document.

7. The Congress requires detailed listings of all NPC payees greater than $50,000. This may

require the listing of payments to employees. NPPO regards this as "sensitive"

information and suggests that employee numbers, not names, be used in the listing.

NPPO does not regard any other information submitted in this Report to be of a sensitive

nature.

8. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act, VA may not conduct or sponsor, and you are not

required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a valid Office of

Management and Budget (OMB) number.

SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS

9. Both the preparation and filing of this Report are by electronic means.

10. On or before June 1, please submit your NPC Annual Report form in Excel format by email to

kimberly.collins@va.gov with copies to paula.floyd@va.gov and allan.krehbiel@va.gov. Please do not

change the print settings or otherwise alter the form.

11. Print out the NPC Certification page (Tab 2), sign the Certification, and create a PDF of the NPC

Certification page only.

12. In an email to the NPPO, please attach the following items in the format indicated in parenthesis:

a. Completed NPC Annual Report Template workbook including Tab 12 (Excel only)

b. Signed Certification page (only) at Tab 2 (PDF)

c. Independent Audtiors' Report (PDF)

Important Note: Annual audits by independent outside auditors are required for all NPCs

with annual revenues of $500,000 or more. If the NPC's annual

revenues are between $100,000 and $500,000, then independent

outside audits are required only every three years. If annual revenues are

less than $100,000, then independent outside audits are not required.

d. Audited Financial Statements (PDF) and Single Audit Report (Uniform Guidance), if required

e. Letters from Independent Auditors (PDF), if audit is required and letter(s) received

f. IRS Form 990 or Form 990EZ with all schedules (PDF)

Please note that the Report and all of the other foregoing documents are due June 1, 2021.

13. In the "Subject" line of your email, please indicate your city and state first and then the item(s)

you are submitting: For example: "Subject: Columbia, MO - 2020 NPC Annual Report"

14. If the attached files are too large to send in one email, then please submit multiple emails with a

notation in the email "Subject" line. For example: "Subject: Columbia, MO - Independent

Auditors' Report and Audited Financial Statements for 2020 - 1 of 2". Please do not submit more

than one file for each report.

15. Please double check to see that your Total Assets, Total Liabilities, Total Revenues and

Total Expenses figures agree exactly with the corresponding amounts shown on your

Form 990 or 990 EZ tax return. Also, please be sure you have completed all of the, including

including "Accomplishments" (Tab 10) and "Budget and Other" (Tab 12). The information on

Tab 12 is very important for VA's budgeting and reporting of budget information to the OMB.

The other information at Tab 12 is necessary for senior VA executives and NPPO to evaluate

your NPC's progress, financial condition, and operations.

16. Please do not submit any password protected documents. We must be able to open, read, and,

if convenient for us, be able to print any documents you submit. Please do not change the

print settings or make other changes to the Template.

17. NPPO will send you an email acknowledging your submission and NPPO's acceptance of

your NPC Annual Report as soon as it has made a preliminary review of the Report's

completeness and accuracy.

Thank you for your cooperation in following these instructions!
