Guides for the people who file the vouchers

Plain-language notes on the rules that get NYC and NYS funder vouchers returned, written for the finance director or fiscal manager who re-keys the same payroll into each funder's format every month. No signup.

The voucher checker

All funders

Why vouchers get returned

The six checks the free checker runs — unallowable costs, fringe ceilings, allocation totals, reconciliation, blank headers, funder advisories — and why each one gets a voucher sent back.

Funders with no voucher file to download

These funders have no separate voucher workbook; budgets and claims are submitted inside PASSPort, through the CFRS software, in a grants portal or through the funder's own federal systems. Each guide covers allowable categories, indirect basis, fringe limits and the rules that get budgets returned.

NYC SBS

SBS Fiscal Requirements

Workforce1 providers — the 10% indirect cap and its six excluded categories.

NYC MOCJ

MOCJ Fiscal Requirements

Crisis Management System and ATI programs — POCR rules and documentation standards.

NYC DOP

DOP Fiscal Requirements

Reentry and probation-adjacent programs — the published 30% fringe ceiling.

NYS OMH

NYS OMH Fiscal Requirements

Article 31 licensed programs — CFR reporting and Ratio Value allocation.

NYS DOL

WIOA Fiscal Requirements

WIOA subrecipients — incentives vs bonuses, and 2 CFR 200 closeout.

NYS OASAS

NYS OASAS Fiscal Requirements

State Aid budgets and claims through the CFRS software — DMH-2 lines, due dates, advances and modifications.

NYS DHSES

NSGP Fiscal Requirements

Nonprofit Security Grant Program — the 5% M&A cap on actual costs, AEL-only equipment, and what NSGP will not pay for.

NYC DCLA

DCLA Cultural Development Fund Requirements

The Payment Checklist tiers by award size, Member Item lobbying certification and the final-report deadline.

HUD CoC

HUD Continuum of Care Fiscal Requirements

24 CFR 578 — the 10% project-admin cap including indirect, the 25% match and the 45-day draw rule.

Need the form itself?

The funder template library has blank voucher and expense report templates for DYCD, ACS, DOE, DHS, DOHMH, DFTA, HRA, OCFS, IOLA, JCLS, HRI, ONCS and HHS — each rebuilt from a real filed form with the structure kept exact — plus the official NYSED FS-10, FS-10-A, FS-25 and FS-10-F forms, the DCJS voucher packet, the DHSES NSGP claim packet, the OVS budget worksheets and the DOJ SF-425 exactly as the agencies publish them.

Not sure a voucher is right?

Upload one you have already completed and we will flag unallowable costs, fringe above your funder's ceiling, allocations that do not total 100%, and totals that do not reconcile. Free, no signup, and the file never leaves your browser. What the checker covers, and what it cannot see.

The vouchers build themselves
