2025–26 Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), Title II: Adult Education Family Literacy Act (AEFLA)

Dear Adult Education Administrators:

This message is intended for community colleges and community-based organizations.

The Annual Audit Status Certification (AASC) form for Fiscal Year (FY) 2024–25 is now available on the Reporting Site. Thank you for your patience as we completed programming updates needed to accommodate recent federal changes and prepare the software module for release.

The AASC form has been updated to reflect the revised single audit threshold under the Uniform Guidance revisions effective October 1, 2024. Because applicability is tied to subaward issuance dates, some providers may have AEFLA funds subject to different audit thresholds within the same fiscal year.

Due to the delayed release of the updated form, the submission deadline for both system entry and receipt of signed AASC forms has been extended to May 15, 2026. While the AASC is typically due in September, agencies can expect subsequent deadlines to occur in October.

If your agency anticipates any issues meeting this deadline or has questions related to this requirement, please contact your assigned fiscal analyst.

Sincerely,

Carolyn Zachry, Ed.D.
Education Administrator and State Director
