FNS Documents & Resources

Form FNS-57 is used by consignees to report overages and shortages in a shipment and commodities damaged in transit.

The purpose of this memorandum is to announce the implementation, effective Dec. 15, 2007, of the modifications to the TEFAP allocation formula that we proposed in the Federal Register notice published on Oct. 24, 2007.

State agencies apply for reimbursement using Form FSA-21, submitted to the appropriate FNS regional office for approval. 

This Instruction establishes policy for charging allowable costs associated with the administration of TEFAP, and for assigning such costs to states and eligible recipient agencies (ERAs).  Such classification of costs is necessary in order to demonstrate compliance with the statutory and regulatory requirements described in section II, of this document.
