Solution

failed
failed
Answer

The answer is B. Its member

Explanation
Option 1: Fiduciary

A fiduciary is a person who holds a legal or ethical relationship of trust with one or more other parties. While fiduciaries can be involved in the management of a trust, they are not necessarily the controlling entity in a 501(c)(9) Trust.

Option 2: Its member

A 501(c)(9) Trust, also known as a Voluntary Employees' Beneficiary Association (VEBA), must be controlled by its members. This ensures that the trust operates for the benefit of its members, who are typically employees or their beneficiaries.

Option 3: All of the above

This option is incorrect because not all the entities listed (fiduciary, its member, and an independent trustee) are required to control a 501(c)(9) Trust. The primary control must be by its members.

Option 4: An independent trustee

An independent trustee can be involved in the administration of a trust, but in the case of a 501(c)(9) Trust, the control must lie with its members.
