I do the books for an HOA in Idaho. Annual assessments are due August 15 for the assessment period beginning the following Sept 1 through Aug 31. The HOA's fiscal year is calendar year (1/1-12/31) and report cash basis on the tax return. Is it ok that the assessment period differs from the fiscal year?

Is it OK? Yes. Is it a good idea? Probably not.

Our HOA does the same thing and it is OK.

Its "ok", it just makes life more complicated.

Yes, I think I've come to the same conclusion: fine, but a pain. Since the HOA is cash basis, it doesn't really matter. I just need to report cash in and cash out for taxes/books and bill for the different assessment year. Thanks for all of your feedback!
