Report Due Dates  You have 30 days to prepare and submit your Monthly Financial Report (MFR) to Ambassador. Example: Your May report will be due on July 1 st.  We will send Headquarters an updated Compliancy Report every Wednesday morning. If you send in your report you will not see it updated on the compliancy report until the following Wednesday.

 Fax:  -Verify that it’s not upside down.  -Make sure you get a confirmation report.  Mail: 7521 Presidential Lane, Manassas, VA Cons: May get lost, takes several days, and no confirmation of receipt.  -You will always receive a reply from Stephanie that she received it. -Common mistake: Misspelling “Verizon.” -Common mistake: Attaching wrong file. -Try to scan attachments all together when possible. Methods of Reporting

 Page 1 of the Report Showing Income and Expenses -Do not send Page 2—Must be kept with unit files in case you get audited.  Bank Statement -All pages of statement that contain activity. -Bank statement needs to show the beginning and ending balance for the month. -Send the reconciliation if the ending balance is different than report balance. -Must have the bank’s name, address, and your account number on it.

 First, check the online compliancy report to see if the current month is marked off.  If it is not, then check to see that you have submitted that report and received some sort of confirmation.  If you did submit it and have confirmation, call Ambassador at to inquire why you are still locked out. If it is our error, we will contact Headquarters immediately to have you unlocked. Common Reasons Why You Get Locked Out: o You have not sent in the current month that is due. o You sent it to the wrong address. o Your fax did not go through. o Your fax was upside down. o It got lost in the mail.

This is Page 1 of the Monthly Financial Report. It was updated in the YM Database on 5/2013. Please make sure that this is the version of the report that you submit.
