Budget

Overview

USAID, in collaboration with the State Department, produces several key materials to map development policy and track its progress. Although USAID and the State Department are separate organizations, both report to the Secretary of State. Therefore, a joint effort ensures that the two organizations focus on achieving common goals, finding economies of scale, and promoting new synergies. Once policy direction is established, funding resources are aligned to meet these objectives. Annual planning at the Mission and Bureau levels follow from this stage, as do budget submissions to Congress. The execution of the strategic plan is reported in Department and Agency performance plans and reports.

Congressional Budget Justification
Each fiscal year the Agency submits its budget justification to the Congress for appropriation. The Congressional Budget Justification (CBJ) reflects the Administration's program and budget request for bilateral foreign economic assistance appropriations. The Agency's Annual Performance Overview is an important companion document by providing the broader policy context for specific Agency goals, indicators and funding levels.
