Form 990 for tax year 2023

Filed by SPECIAL NEEDS COBB INC.

What the amendment changed

Compared with the return it replaced , filed 30 July 2025. matched by us Only the return's totals, a 990-PF's accounting method and the names listed in Part VII (Part VIII on a 990-PF) are compared. We relate returns by organization, tax year and form, and order them by each return's own timestamp; the filer's own "amended return" checkbox is a separate fact.

Those are the same on the two returns, so the amendment changed something else.
