Clarification on Release of State Aid and P-12 Grant Program Payments Subjected to 20% DOB Withholdings
08-20-2020
On August 13, 2020, Division of the Budget (DOB) issued the FY 2021 First Quarterly State Budget Financial Plan Update which notes that, in the absence of Federal action since enactment of the FY 2021 budget, DOB began withholding 20 percent of most local aid payments in June, and that all or a portion of these withholds may be converted to permanent reductions, depending on the size and timing of new Federal aid, if any.
In July, DOB began approving General Support for Public Schools (GSPS) payments to school districts (including 3609-a General Aid, 3609-b Excess Cost Aid, and 3609-d BOCES Aid payments) at 80% of the otherwise scheduled amounts.
DOB’s Updated Financial Plan includes $8.2 billion in recurring local aid reductions, and states that the earliest DOB expects to transmit a detailed aid-to-localities reduction plan to the Legislature is late in the second quarter of the State’s FY 2021, and that, in the absence of unrestricted Federal aid, DOB will continue to withhold a range of payments through the second quarter of FY 2021.

State Aid Payment Fund Codes
A list of all the payment certificates available for your district can be found on the State Aid web page after entering your district code or name. You should print all payment certificates so that you have a record of all payments and deductions made during a particular school year. Beginning with the 2005-06 school year, all payment certificates associated with payments made during the 2005-06 school year will remain on the web site until such time as the State Aid Payments End of School Year report is made available on the web.
