  2. OMB Guidance1 • "Legitimately incurred obligations that have not been disbursed (i.e. paid) at the time a Treasury Appropriation Fund Symbol (TAFS) is canceled cannot be disbursed from the canceled obligated or unobligated balances of the canceled TAFS. After a TAFS is canceled, any obligations or adjustments to obligations that would have been properly chargeable to that TAFS may be disbursed from an unexpired TAFS that is available for obligation for the same purpose as the closed TAFS… .“ • “Payment of obligations against canceled TAFSs from unexpired TAFSs are limited to one percent of the appropriation in the unexpired TAFS. No more than one percent of an unexpired TAFS may be used to pay any combination of canceled obligations. This is a single, cumulative limit… .” • “Antideficiency Act provisions continue to apply to canceled TAFSs. The authority to pay obligations against closed TAFSs from one percent of unexpired TAFSs cannot be used to exceed the original appropriation.” • “ When you cancel obligations under the provisions of Public Law 101–510 (31 U.S.C. 1551–1557), a tracking process should be maintained. You must maintain proper U.S. Standard General Ledger (USSGL) controls for obligations pertaining to canceled appropriations to prevent overpayment. The Treasury's Financial Management Service provides USSGL accounting instructions.” 1OMB Circular No. A-11, Section 130.14, dated July 2007. (See site for specific provisions.)
