A 5847 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Extends deadline for completion of school district's annual audit for 2024-2025 school year.

This bill extends the deadline for New Jersey school districts to complete their annual financial audits for the 2024-2025 school year. Specifically, it moves the audit completion date from the standard five months after the school year ends to January 10, 2026, and requires submission of the audit summary to the Commissioner of Education by January 1, 2026. These deadlines apply only to the 2024-2025 school year, reverting to the standard timeline for future years. The change directly affects all New Jersey public school districts required to conduct annual financial audits under state law.
