Topic 3: TA Recommendations

___________  asks, “Is there anything I can do to make sure I have included the necessary information in the documentation and match reporting?’

Here are some helpful tips when documenting and reporting matches:

• Include match requirements in the Request or Call for Proposal; include information on appropriate match (pre-award activity)
• Include match documentation requirements in any agreements;
• Require match documentation be submitted with each invoice or reimbursement for expenses;
• Include information and education about appropriate match funds when educating subrecipients about financial documentation (post-award activities);
• Formalize match requirements including documentation requirements in Council grants policy and/or procedure documents.
• Discuss and plan with DSA personnel on how the Council will report match to complete the annual SF-425.
