In order to ensure that the financial records of the North Jersey Section ACS are kept in order, the Executive Committee requests that all units submit their summary finance data two times per year (as of July 31 and December 31). This will help us to do a better job at budget time in October/November plus ensuring us a better reporting of our funds to the IRS and National ACS.

Download the North Jersey Section Finance Report Form. All units (including those that fall under the North Jersey Section ACS umbrella) of the Section that spend any money during the year are requested to submit this form as of July 31 and December 31st.

The completed Finance Report Form is due to the Section’s Chair and Treasurer (see Officers), by regular mail, no later than the 15th of August and the 15th of January.

If you have any questions about the form or who should submit this data, please contact Treasurer Miriam Gulotta (mgulotta@njacs.org).
