GSA Form 3285: FBF Project Allowance

GSA Form 3285, FBF Project Allowance, is a one-page form. Its footer reads GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION and GSA FORM 3285 (REV. 9-94), and GSA hosts it in its forms library. GSA's page lists a current revision date of 09/1994 and no authority or regulation.

Section I, General, identifies the allowance: region, allowance number, fund, fiscal year, appropriation title and symbol, who it is issued to, the budget activity, the building and prospectus, the project or line item number and the authorized dollar amounts. The Allowance section prints the line "You are authorized to incur obligations within the cumulative funds allowed thru quarter indicated" and lays out prior and new allowances by fiscal year and quarter. Signature lines follow for the requester, two concurrences, the Regional Administrator and an approver, and the form notes that ADM 4200.2 exacts penalties for the violation of this allowance.
