Re: ARRA reporting subrecipient vendor payment question Paffrath, Dennis 21 Dec 2009 15:26 EST

What was stated to you is true.  You must obtain from your sub-recipient, their expenditures, reported FTE’s and any payments to vendors less than 25K (number and dollars). This information will be added to yours (C and E 22).

I have an ARRA quarterly reporting question for the January 10, 2010 deadline.

We are the grant prime recipient and have delegated reporting to our subrecipients. Because of this, it was our understanding that we would only need to report FTE's, while the subrecipient would report the expenditures.

However, in communicating with the federalreporting.gov help desk, they have stated that we also need to report the subrecipient's total "payments to vendors less than $25,000/award". This information is to be entered into cells C22 and E22 on the prime recipient tab of the report. This means that we will also need to coordinate the detailed vendor payments - less than $25,000/award - with the subrecipient in order to report this information.

Is this correct? Has anyone heard differently?
