Note on lapse in appropriations

Operations at the Bureau of Economic Analysis have ceased due to a lapse in appropriations. In the interests of minimizing the impact on those submitting surveys, the eFile system remains available for use by survey respondents. However, BEA staff are not available to assist with eFile submissions or answer any other survey-related questions until operations resume. New eFile users requests to link a username to a survey ID cannot be processed at this time, but they will be processed upon the resumption of operations. Users may also submit their filings via secure fax, USPS or other delivery service. Additionally, any voicemails or emails sent to BEA accounts will not be monitored during a lapse in appropriations. We will respond upon the resumption of operations.
