Time and Effort Reporting
-
- Federal and State regulations require time-and-effort reporting documentation for all personnel who receive payment from federal funds, which includes Title I, Title II and Title III.
- It is important in ensuring that federal funds are used to pay only their proportionate share of personnel costs.
- Specifically, the law requires that a detailed programmatic and fiscal record must be maintained to document that Title I funds are spent on activities and services for only Title I participating students.
- Time and Effort Reporting is one of the most frequently non-compliant findings by auditors, thus the FSEP Office has developed this section to assist school in understanding and completing the required documentation.
- Failure to complete and/or provide this documentation results in penalties that must be paid for by using a school or office’s General Funds.
- For additional information, please see BUL-2643.14 Documentation for Employees Paid from Federal and State Categorical Programs.
