apportioned in accordance with Office of Management and Budget's automatic apportionment 

bulletin. The balance will remain in this account until the warrant has been issued by the U.S. 

Department of the Treasury’s Bureau of the Fiscal Service.The balance in this account will

continuing resolution.

Account Title: Unfunded FECA Benefit Contributions Receivable

Account Number: 132100

Normal Balance: Debit

Definition: The amount recorded by the Department of Labor for unfunded FECA contributions 

due from Federal employers. Until the Federal paying agency records the actual budgetary 

obligation, the associated FECA liability and receivable are considered unfunded. This account 

does not close at yearend.

federal entities that are required to be covered under FECA by law. The current definition 

limited this USSGL account as a receivable due from Federal employers. A change was made 

to the Federal Non-Federal Code attribute domain value to allow the domain value of “N” for 

this USSGL account.
