      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 2021 appropriations acts will become available for programs in 2022 or beyond. Since
            these appropriations are not available until after 2021, the amounts will not be included in the 2021 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 2019 or will request, in 2021,
            advance appropriations for 2022 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.
