Covered by thirteen clean audits in a row.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection · Department of Homeland Security
CBP does not receive its own financial-statement audit opinion. As a component of the Department of Homeland Security, its books roll up into the department's consolidated statements — which have earned an unmodified (clean) opinion every year for over a decade. The largest federal department has never earned one. The difference is whether financial data traces, reliably, from a recorded transaction back to its source — the discipline a clean opinion requires, and the discipline this monitor practices.
The audit record
Why this monitor
A multi-year clean-opinion streak proves the standard is reachable for a sprawling, multi-component department — when financial data can be traced from a recorded transaction back to its authorization. Every figure on this CBP monitor resolves to a published source and recomputes against the budget's own arithmetic — the four discretionary appropriations to CBP's published net discretionary subtotal, gross adding the Global Entry fee, total budget authority adding the strictly separate mandatory/fee accounts. That is the same data discipline a clean opinion demands, demonstrated on the public record.
Sources are linked at each node. The clean-opinion record is the DHS consolidated record — drawn from the DHS OIG independent auditor's reports and the DHS Agency Financial Report, which cover CBP as a component; the DoD contrast is drawn from DoD's own audit reports and GAO's High-Risk List.
