  9. Interim FFR • Interim FFR is solely used to report compliance with Part B 75% obligation requirement • Failure to submit interim FFR, to meet the FFR deadline, or to meet the 75% obligation requirement may result in penalties • Obligations are considered the sum of expenditures and unliquidated obligations • Expenditures – The amount of federal funds expendedto date. • Unliquidated Obligations- Direct and indirect expenses incurred but not yet paid or charged to the grant*, including amounts due to subrecipients and contractors. *Unliquidated obligations on a cash basis are obligations incurred, but not yet paid. On an accrual basis, they are obligations incurred, but for which an expenditure has not yet been recorded.

  10. Annual FFR in EHBs • Grantee users with approved privileges complete and submit the FFR online via EHB. • The FFR must be submitted and accepted by HRSA before a carryover can be requested by the grantee. • The FFR(s) must submitted by the deadline(s) specified on the Notice of Award (NoA). • Timely submission of a correct FFR is the first step in the carryover process • Annual FFR must reconcile with PMS (more to follow later)

  11. Annual FFR in EHBs • Grantees will receive an email notification reminding them to submit the FFR 30 days before the due date. • The FFR must submitted by the deadline specified on the Notice of Award (NoA). Failure to submit timely, accurate FFRs will result in denial of carryover requests • FFRs that are returned to the grantee for changes must be resubmitted and accepted to be considered complete. A delay in the resubmission of a returned FFR will cause delays to, and possibly denials of, carryover requests • In order for an FFR to be accepted, the Annual FFR must reconcile with PMS charges and disbursements

  12. Annual FFR Submission Schedule

  13. Financial Reporting Role • Individuals at the grantee organization responsible for submitting the FFR to HRSA must register as the Financial Reporting Administrator (FRA) • By default, the project director will not have access to the FFR • Access to the FFR must be approved by the Financial Reporting Administrator or user with Administer FFR privileges

  30. Prior Approval Requirement Carryover of funds requires HRSA prior approval Process: • HRSA Program Staff: • Assess compliance with program specific requirements • Determine eligibility of carryover based on source and use of funds • Make recommendation to Division of Grants Management (DGMO) • HRSA Grants Management Specialist: • Review the FFR in conjunction with prior Notice of Award (NOA) funding requirements • Reconciliation of the FFR with PMS data • Review of the carryover request justification, budget, and allowable use of funds • Creates the carryover approval NoAor disapproves request • Grants Management Officer – Review and release of NOA

  31. Carryover Request Components • Line item budget with details regarding UOB sources and proposed use • Narrative justification of the proposed use of funds in current budget period • Corresponding narrative description of activities not completed and/or reason for existence of unobligated funds
