Overheads Assessment Mitigation Application
UF has recently adopted an All-Funds budget model which will simplify and consolidate overheads assessment as well as providing transparency into the actual cost of support and administrative units. Click here for more information on the new cost pool methodology for overheads assessment. With these changes IFAS administration is presently subsidizing 93% of the overheads assessment increases for FY24.
Assessments on incidental cash funds, such as fund 182, will be impacted by the new budget model. Effective July 1st, 2023, overheads assessment on the expenditures in these incidental funds will increase from 1.61% to 10%. This change will require programs to undertake a review of rates being charged to our communities and will also impact programs who were saving money to fund major program purchases.
These assessment changes have caused concern with some of our programs who support the mission of UF/IFAS Extension. To ease the burden on the program coordinators who were banking funds for major purchases, the Dean for Extension has created an application process for a partial waiver of the assessment for the FY24.
Please see more information on the program guidelines and application process below:
