Federal Manager's Daily Report

The Office of Government Ethics has sent out a reminder

that annual public financial disclosure reports (SF 278)

for those required to file them must be submitted to

the appropriate department or agency no later than May

15. Each designated agency ethics official is to

ensure that each report filed is reviewed within sixty

days.

OGE said that all annual SF 278s filed by May should

be certified and submitted to OGE as soon as approved

by the agency or department, but no later than August

1. If agencies cannot certify the report within this

time frame, they must submit an uncertified report to

OGE and the certified report must be submitted to OGE

as soon as possible afterward.
