Can a non-US citizen be an initial director for a US nonprofit in New York state and still get tax-exempt status?

[@Ms.ladytosha]

Do 501c3 board members have to be US citizens? Answer: There is no requirement under the federal tax laws governing United States 501(c)(3) and other tax-exempt organizations that Board members be U.S. residents or U.S. citizens.Jun 8, 2022

[@BossonaBudget]

I can’t speak to NY state law (which probably allows it) but im not aware of any rule in the federal tax code that prevents non US citizens from serving on a board.

[@DeniseGale-Lee-nf5cf]
