Improper Payments Elimination Act (IPERA)

In July 2010, the President signed into law the IPERA, which requires each inspector general to review improper payment reporting in their agency’s annual Performance and Accountability Report (PAR) to determine its compliance. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) recommends that the IG submit a short letter to the agency head, Congress, OMB and the Government Accountability Office 120 days after the issuance date of the PAR.
