         ADVANCE APPROPRIATIONS                                                                                                   
            
         
      
      
   
   
      ADVANCE APPROPRIATIONS                                                                                                   
         
      
      
         An advance appropriation is one made to become available one year or more beyond the year for which the appropriations act
            is passed. Advance appropriations in 2013 appropriations acts will become available for programs in 2014 or beyond. Since
            these appropriations are not available until after 2013, the amounts will not be included in the 2013 totals, but will be
            reflected in the totals for the year for which they are requested.
         
         The Congressional Budget Act of 1974 (31 U.S.C. 1105(a)(17)) requires inclusion in the budget of "information on estimates
            of appropriations for the fiscal year following the fiscal year for which the budget is submitted for grants, contracts, and
            other payments under each program for which there is an authorization of appropriations for that following fiscal year when
            the appropriations are authorized to be included in an appropriation law for the fiscal year before the fiscal year in which
            the appropriation is to be available for obligation." In fulfillment of this requirement, the accompanying table lists those
            accounts that have either received discretionary or mandatory advance appropriations since 2011 or will request, in 2013,
            advance appropriations for 2014 and beyond and cites the applicable authorizing statute. 
         
         For additional information on advance appropriations, please refer to the Budget Process chapter in the Analytical Perspectives volume.

         1 Any across-the-board reduction provisions included in the Department of Defense and Full-Year Continuing Appropriations Act,
         2011 (P.L. 112â10) are excluded.2 Any across-the-board reduction provisions included in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2012 (P.L. 112â74) are excluded.3 An additional advance appropriation that the Administration is proposing to be considered outside of the limit on advance
         appropriations is for full funding of specific satellite procurement programs at the Department of Defense (DOD). In the 2013
         request, regular and advance appropriations in the Missile Procurement, Air Force account are requested to fully fund the
         Advanced Extremely High Frequency (AEHF) satellite (space vehicles 5 & 6) and the Space-Based Infrared Systems (SBIRS) satellite
         (space vehicles 5 & 6).  In total, this will result in advance appropriations for DOD becoming available in the following
         fiscal years: $833.5 million in 2014, $763.9 million in 2015, $708.4 million in 2016, $1,107.2 million in 2017, and $1,013.7
         million in 2018.4 To account for the Administration's Elementary and Secondary Education Act reauthorization proposal, the 2013 Budget eliminates
         the $1.681 billion advance appropriation that was previously in the School Improvement account (renamed the Education Improvement
         Account) and replaces it with corresponding increases to advance appropriations in the accounts for Education for the Disadvantaged
         ($841 million, renamed Accelerating Achievement and Ensuring Equity) and Special Education ($841 million). Total advance appropriations
         in the Department of Education remain unchanged at $22.596 billion.5 The Department of Defense and Full-Year Continuing Appropriations Act, 2011 (P.L. 112â10) cancelled $1,200 million from the
         one-year funds advance appropriated for 2011 in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2010 (P.L. 111â117) and reappropriated
         an equal amount for 2011 with an extended period of availability. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2012 (P.L. 112â74)
         cancelled $1,750 million from the one-year funds advance appropriated for 2012 in P.L. 112â10 and reappropriated an equal
         amount for 2012 with an extended period of availability. The 2013 Budget proposes to cancel $1,750 million from the one-year
         funds appropriated for 2013 in P.L. 112â74 and reappropriate an equal amount for 2013 with an extended period of availability.
         6 The 2013 request includes a 2015 advance appropriation for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting of $445 million, consistent
         with the historical practice of providing the Corporation a two-year advance appropriation.
