...Nebraska has a biennium budget that is set from 2013 all the way to 2015. Knowing what is in your budget and how to properly gauge what will be needed for the coming two years in each department is an important aspect to a successful budget. The person in charge of the budget for each department needs to know how to properly budget and respond to the needs of the state in the most fiscal way possible. A budget is only as good as the person who is running it. The Nebraska State budget is complex, but with the right amount of team work and dedication, it seems to run very smoothly. Nebraska State Budget The Nebraska State budget is set on a biennium basis. Since this is the case the budget will need to be looked at for the next two years. The thing to keep in mind is the total “Budgeted Amount” for the Budget Status Report should reflect all “new” appropriations authorized by the Legislature for fiscal year 2013-14 as well as any appropriations from fiscal year 2012-13 that will carry over to the current budget.

Budget Information The State of Nebraska’s budget is done on a biennium basis. The Governor’s budget recommendations play an important role in the budget making process. The budget is decided two years at a time and...
