Local Chapter Annual Reports

APHON Local Chapters must submit specific annual reports on February 28 to inform the Local Chapter committee about chapter activities and standing during the year. These financial reports are a requirement from the IRS for all corporations involved in specific business transactions.

Reviewed/Updated Bylaws

Each chapter is required to review the bylaws of the chapter every two years. Bylaw updates must be first approved by APHON National and then approved by a majority vote of the members of the local chapter. APHON National will review the proposed changes and provide approval or recommended revisions. If no revisions are required, the chapter should submit a statement indicating that the bylaws have been reviewed and no changes were necessary.

Local chapters are required to provide an updated report following the election of a new board of directors. While submission of this report is required during the February 28 reporting cycle, it may also be re-submitted anytime throughout the year when there is a change in the chapter leadership.
