Annual Immigration Report Due by December 31st

Print Print this article

The annual immigration report for the reporting period of December 1, 2015 through November 30, 2016 is due on December 31, 2016. In October, the Department of Administrative Services (DOAA) sent out information to each county about the immigration reporting requirement. An overview of the template for the report can be viewed here. There is a new change to the report based on the passage of SB 269 during the 2016 legislative session. In addition to the information previously requested, counties also will need to certify that they are in compliance with Georgia’s immigration sanctuary law. This requirement will be part of the actual immigration report.

Please start preparing early to ensure that you have all the information needed to file the report by the deadline. DOAA will be reporting non-compliant counties to state agencies that provide state funding to local governments, so make sure that you submit your report by December 31, 2016. If you have any technical questions about filing the report, please contact the DOAA at Immhelp@audits.ga.gov or visit the DOAA website at www.audits.ga.gov/. All questions about the legal requirements for this report should be directed to your county attorney.
