Minnesota statute 299C.061, subdivision 7 requires state agencies to report information about incidents of suspected fraud involving state-funded or administered programs or services with losses of $10,000 or more to the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA). A report with the information must be submitted to the BCA between Jan. 1-15 for the previous calendar year. 

How to report incidents

Agencies should download this spreadsheet and use it to compile the information. Send the completed spreadsheet to the BCA at MNfraud.Bureau@state.mn.us.

Please ensure that your agency completes and submits this form to the BCA no later than Jan. 15 for the previous calendar year. Reach out to the BCA at MNfraud.Bureau@state.mn.us with any questions about the form.

Annual BCA report

To comply with requirements in Minn. stat. 299C.061, subd. 8, the BCA compiles the data received from all state agencies for inclusion in the BCA Financial Crimes and Fraud Section Annual Report, which is published on the BCA website and submitted to the state legislature. This report is published by Feb. 1 each year. 

Because 2025 is the first year of this reporting requirement, the report published in Feb. 2026 will be the first annual report to contain information about these incidents. The report will be posted on the BCA reports page.
