How can an agency request investigative funding from TEOAF?

An agency can request investigative funding from TEOAF (Treasury Executive Office for Asset Forfeiture) through the mechanism of contributing through a seizure. This option reflects the process in which agencies can provide information regarding assets that have been seized during investigations. By demonstrating the value of these seized assets, agencies can make a case for funding to support further investigations or operational activities.

The approach highlights the cooperative relationship between the Treasury and law enforcement agencies in leveraging seized assets to extend their resources and capabilities. This option not only involves the financial aspect of asset forfeiture but also underscores the overall goal of utilizing seized funds to enhance law enforcement operations effectively.

In contrast, presenting a formal proposal, direct application to the treasury, or submitting an annual budget report may involve different processes but do not align with TEOAF's specific funding mechanisms through seized assets.
