On what day of the month must the NAVSUP 1359 be submitted?

The NAVSUP 1359 form, which is used for reporting and accounting for supplies and services within the Navy, must be submitted by the 5th of each month. This timeline is established to ensure that all accounting and financial activities are completed promptly, allowing for timely reconciliation of financial data for the month prior. The requirement to submit by the 5th facilitates effective oversight and management of resources, helping to maintain accountability and prevent discrepancies. By submitting on this date, departments and personnel can ensure that they align with Navy financial management practices and support accurate and efficient reporting processes.
