VETS Extends Filing Date Again - Reports due on December 30th

VETS100-100A Federal Contract Reporting
Special Announcement — Further Extension!

2011 VETS 100 Filing Cycle

Please Read Below

The Department had planned to begin accepting electronic submissions of VETS-100/VETS-100A forms on August 1, 2011. However, we were not able to address all the technical problems required to bring our system online by this date. We are confident that we will have the system up and running by November 1, 2011.
To address this delay, contractors may choose to submit the VETS 100/VETS 100A reports by email or hard copy for the 2010 filing cycle so that federal contracting officers may obligate funds to a contract. This filing process is further described below in the "File for 2010 Cycle". Contracting officers should not withhold from obligating funds to contracts because a contractor has not filed a report for the 2011 filing cycle, as the 2011 filing cycle has yet to occur. The timeframe for information used to complete a VETS100/100A report (known as the "reporting period") will still remain the same, despite the change to filing cycle timeframe (August 1 to November 1). Contractors will have up to 60 days from the time the system is operational to submit their report which is expect to begin on November 1, 2011 and end December 30, 2011.
