How the Date Is Worked Out

1. Enacted July 1, 2010 (Pub. L. 111-195).
2. Deadline runs from an event, not a calendar date: 180 days after submitting the report required by subsection (a).
3. After the first deadline the duty recurs every 180 days.
4. No date can be set until the triggering event is publicly documented.

Public Evidence

• No public document located that shows delivery.

Evidence Searched

• GovInfo Congressionally Mandated Reports collection: 1,209 packages listed; titles searched for Middle East terms; 55 State, Defense, Treasury and executive-office summaries checked for citations to Pub. L. 111-195 (0 found) (Oct. 17, 2026)
• Federal Register API: phrase “Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability, and Divestment Act”: 79 document titles searched (Oct. 17, 2026)
• MEF hand review: evidence.json, items with a link and a note on what the document shows (Oct. 17, 2026)

A status of “Reported late by GAO, committee or agency” appears only with a linked GAO, committee or agency statement. Reports sent only to committees, or in classified form, leave no public trace; their absence here is not evidence of a missed deadline.
