2025-004 REPORTING – CASH MANAGEMENT IMPROVEMENT ACT WEST VIRGINIA STATE TREASURER’S OFFICE (WVSTO) Assistance Listing Numbers: 10.551/10.561/10.555/17.225/20.205/84.010/84.027/84.425/93.558/93.568/ 93.575/93.658/93.659/93.767/93.778/97.036 For the Annual Report filing deadline, December 31, 2025, WVSTO staff experienced multiple extenuating circumstances including training of newer staff members, medical treatments, illness, and the sudden unexpected passing of a close family member. Realizing that these circumstances would interfere with the timely submission of the Annual Report, an extension was requested on December 30, 2025, with the Bureau of the Fiscal Service and was granted through Friday, January 9, 2026. Regrettably, the extenuating circumstances were not fully resolved by that date, and the report was ultimately submitted on January 14, 2026. The WVSTO remained focused on completing the Report but overlooked the need to request an additional extension. WVSTO staff subsequently met with Angela Smith, Director of the Bureau of the Fiscal Service and staff members Mary Bailey and Christopher Bush from the Revenue Collections Management Team. Director Smith confirmed there will be no penalties assessed due to the late filing. Additionally, WVSTO Banking Services staff will review the internal timeline of CMIA activities and procedures to ensure that future reporting is complete and submitted in a timely manner.

2025-005 REPORTING – FEDERAL FUNDING ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY ACT (FFATA) DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION (DOE) Assistance Listing Numbers: 10.553/10.555/10.556/10.559/10.582 During FY 2025, the FFATA reporting system changed from the FSRS site to SAM.gov. Many transactions that were originally entered into the FSRS site did not transfer over and had to be re-entered into SAM.gov, making those entries appear late. In addition, we had trouble getting the SAM.gov site to accept our FFATA entries. DOE worked with SAM.gov customer support to eventually get the issues resolved, but this also resulted in late reporting. Subsequent to the systematic issues being resolved, all FFATA reports have been completed timely and will continue to be reported timely going forward.
