Audit Reports

Audit Reports are required to be provided to the FCC by each entity on an annual basis. Audit Reports can be uploaded into the Centralized Database for a specified program year. Audit Reports can also be replaced, deleted, or can have new files added to them if they have not been accepted by the FCC Administrator. Once the Audit Report has been accepted by the FCC Administrator, it is locked and cannot be edited or deleted.
