Supplemental Security Income Program

B1: Amounts on lines 1100 and 1200 may be reallocated without further apportionment action based on the final Limitation on Administrative Expenses amount attributable to SSI. Because this adjustment process is conducted during the GTAS revision window, lines 1100 and 1200 in GTAS reporting may not match the SF-132.

B2: Pursuant to the authority in OMB Circular A-11 section 120.21, one or more lines on the apportionment (including lines above line 1920) may have been rounded up and as such, those rounded lines will not match the actuals reported on the SF-133. Agency will ensure that its funds control system will only allot actuals.

A2: As permissible by law, amounts apportioned shall be obligated in a manner consistent with the directives provided in the following: Executive Order 14151, "Ending Radical and Wasteful Government DEI Programs and Preferencing" and, for competitive grant programs only, Executive Order 14332, "Improving Oversight of Federal Grantmaking". [Rationale: Footnote specifies the purpose(s) for which the funds are available to be obligated.]

A3: Amounts apportioned on this line are available for obligation consistent with the latest agreed-upon spend plan pertaining to such amounts between the agency and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Such spend plan submitted by the agency shall include: the allocations of such amounts by program; specific information on current and anticipated grants and contracts utilizing such allocated amounts; and a detailed description of how such spending plan aligns with Administration priorities. Any revisions or additions to such spend plan shall be proposed to OMB in writing no later than five business days before the anticipated obligation of funds based on such revisions or additions. If OMB agrees to such revision or addition, the latest agreed-upon spend plan shall include such revision or addition.  In the absence of an agreed-upon spend plan between the agency and OMB, the agency may obligate funds on this line only as necessary for Federal salary and payroll expenses or to make payments otherwise required by law. [Rationale: An agency spend plan or other documentation is necessary to better understand how the agency intends to obligate some or all of the apportioned funds.]

A1: Funds are available consistent with the policy that OMB be advised 10 days in advance of SSA approved waivers with gross Federal costs over $1 million. [Rationale: OMB requests additional information on programmatic spending for some or all of the apportioned funds.]
