Welcome to the Financial Reporting Department. This department is responsible for the preparation of the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR), the Annual Bond Indebtedness and Long-Term Obligations Report, and well as various other monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reports.
The Comptroller's Office is most often associated with the State's fiscal matters. One lesser-known function is the licensure of certain private cemeteries that accept care funds, crematories, along with businesses, such as cemeteries and funeral homes that sell pre-need funeral goods and services to consumers. Specifically, the division ensures consumer dollars collected by these businesses are annually reported and accounted for so they are available when consumers need them.
