proceeds with an Advice of Credit form PD-4848. The schedule for
submitting the proceeds of payroll sales is as follows:
A. Bonds issued currently - If bonds are inscribed for issue during
the month shown in the issue date, the proceeds and form PD-4848
must be remitted no later than two business days after the valiĀ­
dation date. If possible, the related stubs and PD-3252 should
be shipped at the same time.
B. Bonds issued in the subsequent month - If bonds are inscribed
for issue after the month shown in the issue date, the proceeds
and form PD-4848 must be remitted no later than the second busiĀ­
ness day of the month following the month shown in the issue
date. The stubs and PD-3252 should be forwarded to the Federal
Reserve Bank as soon as possible after issue but no later than
the end of the month indicated by the validation date.
