US Treasury Issues Clean-up Guidance for ARPA Reports

On May 20, Treasury distributed the attached communication to quarterly and annually reporting recipients who reported their 2025 annual report with $0 obligated or had program income in their most recently submitted report.

ACTION IF NEEDED:  If your community obligated all or more of your allocation, you can make updates by logging into the reporting portal over the next few days so you can make edits to the report and re-submit by Friday, May 23, 2025. 

ACTION IF NEEDED:  Review the program income definition and how the Treasury guidance applies to program income in order to determine if your government earned program income that should be reported. 

  • If the Program Income reported is correct, no further action is needed.
  • If the Program Income reported is not correct, please update your report.

This communication provides instruction on how to make revisions through the reporting portal. It also states the definition of program income to mitigate reporting errors related to program income. If recipients reported in error, the communication states that recipients can make updates by logging into the reporting portal and re-submit by Friday, May 23, 2025. The communication to annually reporting recipients contains links to join office hours if they require additional support in correcting this potential error.
