What does Non-Sufficient Funds (NSF) mean?
It means that there are not enough funds in a particular budget line to pay an invoice. Prior to sending an OFC request you must check your budget – FGIBDST – to ensure that you have enough funds in the line. If you send an OFC for say, $50.00 and the line only has $15.00 in it. The OFC will not process. Your request will be returned with a cover letter explaining this. It is up to you to do a “Budget Revision” to move money into the deficient line to cover the cost of the expense.
