Abstract: Extension of the current data collection for the Single Audit reports, including SF-FAC Data Collections Form to provide time to address the comments and make any necessary changes to the new form. The new form was proposed for comments on December 9, 2015 (80 FR 236, page 76581). The current form expires on 01/31/2016.

Emergency Justfication: This request is for a 3 month extension for the currently active data collection for the Single Audit reports that includes SF-SAC, Data Collections form for Reporting on Audits of States, Local Governments and Non-Profit Organizations (OMB Control No. 0348-0057). The form is used by auditors and auditees in meeting the information collection requirements of former OMB Circular A-133,, "Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profits Organizations" and the new Uniform Guidance 2 CRF 200, Subpart F, Audit Requirements. The extension is requested in order to provide adequate time for the review and analysis of comments on the new proposed form. The new form, which includes new data elements required by the Uniform Guidance 2 CFR 200, was proposed and published for a 60 day comments period on December 9, 2015 (80 FR 236, page 76581). Comments are due on February 8, 2016. Another 30 day comment period under the PRA is required after the publication on the revised form with any necessary changes before it is finalized for usage. This extension assures that a new form is in place to collect Single audit report data before the current one expires. Respondents can refuse to submit single audit report information to the Federal Government when the collection instrument is not currently valid. Not receiving the Single Audit reports on a timely will hamper the agencies' effort to monitor and provide necessary oversight of their grant dollars and can expose billions of Federal funds to more fraud, waste and abuse.
