Financial Management
Financial Assistance
Reporting System (FARS)
The FARS is the department wide system used to collect and report on
domestic assistance payments.
The FARS is an automated management information system that collects
required domestic assistance obligation data from all HHS agencies and
produces the annual "Financial Assistance by Geographic Area"
report. Recipient funds are identified by state, county, congressional
district, city, program title, and the agency that obligated the funds.
HHS management, Congress, state and local government officials, grant
recipients, and many others use FARS as a primary source of federal financial
assistance information.
Performance Standards:

Assistance Award Data System" (FAADS) file to the Census Bureau within
30 days following the end of each quarter, respond to prior year's annual
publication requests within 2 business days of receipt.
