2008-2009 School District Financial Statements Not Yet Submitted
A School District may still be on the list even if the audited financial statements have already been submitted to the Department. Occasionally, there may be a backlog in entering the date in SAMS due to the volume of financial statements we receive. If the School District is still on the list at the above link, the School District can verify, in real time, the date we received the audited financial statements by logging into SAMS, selecting “Forms”, then selecting “NYSED Only Form Set:”, and then selecting “Independent Audit Form” (see below).
