AFIR

Annual Financial Information Report Due by October 31st

NEW AFIR PROCESS FOR FY2024
Beginning with FY2024 AFIRs, the U.S. Census Bureau is no longer providing a website for AFIR uploads. 

Instead, completed AFIR reports should be submitted using the new AFIR Submission portal. Accessing the AFIR Submission portal does not require a login or password, which is a change from prior years. 

Due to the submission process change, it is important that you read the AFIR Instructions below and the instructions on the first tab of the form itself prior to submitting your FY2024 report. 

NOTE: All AFIRs prior to FY2024 should be emailed to AFIR@nctreasurer.com.

For questions on downloading, completing, or submitting the form, please contact LGC staff at 919-814-4300 or AFIR@nctreasurer.com.

THE AFIR REPORT
North Carolina General Statute 159-33.1 and North Carolina Administrative Code (20 NCAC 03.0408) require certain units of local government to submit a statement of financial information to the Secretary of the Local Government Commission. To fulfill this requirement, counties and municipalities in North Carolina are required to submit the Annual Financial Information Report (AFIR) by October 31 of each year.

The AFIR report form was designed in consultation with representatives of local governments, state agencies, Legislative Research, the N.C. League of Municipalities, and the N.C. Association of County Commissioners.
