Carryover Limits
Program | Carryover Limit | Waivers |
---|---|---|
Title I, Part A | 15% of allocation for an LEA with an allocation of at least $50,000; 100% of allocation for an LEA with an allocation of less than $50,000. | LEAs can receive 100% of their carryover once every three years by applying for a waiver. See below for more information. |
Title I, Part D | 100% of allocation for use at the Title I, Part D facility | A waiver is not needed to carryover Title I, Part D funds, however, if carrying over these funds causes the LEA to exceed the 15% carryover rule, NYSED must be notified. |
Title II, Part A | 100% of allocation | |
Title III, Part A | 100% of allocation (provided that the LEA had an approved plan in that year). | |
Title IV, Part A | 100% of allocation. An LEA must continue to meet the previous school year's statutory spending requirements as planned for in the approved application. | |
Title V, Part B | 100% of allocation |
The amount carried over must be expended by the end of the following year. For example, if a portion of a 2017-18 allocation is carried over into 2018-19, an amount equal to the carryover must be expended by the end of the 2018-19 fiscal year.
All LEAs (in New York City and outside New York City) may apply for a waiver to the Title I carryover limit by making a request in writing on LEA letterhead with appropriate signature to the Department's Office of ESSA-Funded Programs at conappta@nysed.gov. Please include the LEA BEDs Code, Title I project code and reason for the waiver request in your letter. ESSA requires that the LEA must be able to demonstrate that the request is reasonable and necessary.
