    I work with a 501 C 8 Pythian lodge organization who wishes to complete the ST-119.2

    As I look the application over,  it would appear my client wouldnt qualify for sales tax exemption

    Has anyone had experience with this process for 501 c 8 organizations?

    While I am not very familiar with New York State Laws, in general non-profit organizations are excluded from paying sales tax.

    ​ Being organized and operated as a not-for-profit organization does not, by itself, qualify an organization as a sales tax exempt organization. Religious, charitable, educational, and other organizations must apply to the Tax Department to obtain sales tax exempt status.
