U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s (CBP’s) Regulatory Audit will be hosting a webinar on Thursday, October 9, 2014 from 2:00 PM – 3:30 PM Eastern Time to provide an overview of its Focused Assessment (FA) Program. The webinar will also address recent updates to the program which will be effective for all new FAs started on or after October 1, 2014. Please join us to learn about the FA Program and these important updates.
FAs are comprehensive, risk–based audits of importers involving an assessment of internal control over import activities to determine whether the importer poses an acceptable risk for complying with CBP laws and regulations. The FA Program – which was last updated in October 2003 – promotes maximizing voluntary compliance while working cooperatively with the importer to address issues. The current update involves aligning risk assessment procedures with the audit risk model in accordance with current Government Auditing Standards, emphasizing the consideration of materiality and significance throughout the audit, and replacing the Worksheets for Evaluating Internal Control – including the sample size matrices – with more flexible guidelines.
