• Late Reporting. Section 1512 of the American Recovery and Accountability Act of 2009 requires recipients of Recovery contracts, grants, and loans to submit reports on funds received no later than 10 days after the end of each calendar quarter. FederalReporting.gov serves as the official government website for recipient reporting. The first reporting period ends on Oct. 10, 2009, at midnight Pacific Standard Time (PST). Since this is the first time that recipients are submitting data reports and some states are encountering technical challenges in filing bulk reports for their recipients, FederalReporting.gov will remain open for reporting until Oct. 20. During this 10-day grace period, late filers may submit their required quarterly report. However, they must explain their reasons for delayed reporting, and they will be later identified on Recovery.gov. as late filers.
