Form 990 Part VI - Governance - Policies adopted by authorized board committees

 

Can our organization answer yes to a question about having a policy if a committee of the board, rather than the board itself, adopted the policy, and was authorized to do so?

Yes. The organization may answer Yes to any question in Section B of Part VI that asks whether the organization has a particular policy if the organization's governing body (or a committee of the board, if the board delegated authority to that committee to adopt the policy) adopted the policy by the end of its tax year.
