BACKGROUND
Federal regulations require that the state submit accurate financial reports to DOL on a
quarterly basis. Therefore, the state requires subrecipients to submit financial reports on a
monthly and quarterly basis in the CalJOBSSM system

POLICY AND PROCEDURES
Expenditure Reporting Requirements
Subrecipients are responsible for ensuring all expenditure reports are accurate and submitted
on time. Subrecipients are required to submit monthly and quarterly expenditure reports on a
cumulative basis following the accrual basis of accounting. A separate expenditure report must
be filed for each grant code

Youth, Adult, and Dislocated Worker formula expenditures must be reported quarterly

Expenditures for all other funds are required to be reported monthly. Accrued expenditures
do not need to be split out for monthly reports, but should be reported on all quarterly reports

Subrecipients must submit their monthly and quarterly expenditure reports in the CalJOBS
system by the 20th of the month following the end of each reporting period

Example – Expenditure reports for the reporting period that ends July 31 are due August 20

NOTE – When the reporting deadline falls on a weekend or holiday, all reports are due by
close of business (COB) on the last business day prior to the due date

Example – If August 20 falls on a Sunday, reports would be due by COB on Friday, August 18

Late or incomplete filing of monthly and quarterly expenditure reports will impede future cash
requests until the appropriate reports are filed. A cash hold will be implemented immediately
Page 2 of 8
once the due dates have passed and the expenditure reports have not been received by the
state. If no financial activity has occurred during the reporting period, an expenditure report
must still be filed. The expenditures reported would be the same as the previous reporting
period since reporting is on a cumulative basis. For a new project, the expenditure reports must
be submitted with zero expenditures until expenditures are incurred

1. From the CalJOBS home screen, under the “Services for Subgrantee Staff” navigation
