Entry Summary: Post Summary Correction (PSC)
A Post Summary Correction (PSC) is an amendment to an Entry Summary (excluding informal entry, type 11 or 12) prior to liquidation; yet after CBP’s acceptance of that Entry Summary, payment has been processed, and the entry is scheduled for liquidation.
The filer has a 270-day screen from acceptance to submit a PSC. The last possible day to submit a PSC is within 20 days of the liquidation date.
CBP views a PSC as a full replacement of the Entry Summary data currently on file and it will be accepted as the most up-to-date data available. However, it is important to remember that After CBP reviews the PSC, CBP may change the associated collection information to reflect any resulting monetary changes.
Most Entry Summary data elements can be updated using a PSC. However, elements affecting admissibility are not allowed to be changed in a PSC.
Just like with conventional summary filings, there are many edits and validations on the CBP side and several types of rejections can be encountered with a PSC filing. If the data is not accepted by ACE, then the Entry Summary data on file in ACE will remain unchanged.
There is no limit to the number of PSC filings ACE will accept for an Entry Summary. However, the filer will be required to provide reasons for the data change on each PSC. It is also important to remember that After a PSC has been accepted by CBP, the filer can no longer submit conventional filings to CBP for that entry.
To identify an entry to be updated using a PSC, open the “Entry Summary” screen. Select an entry and click its corresponding
Detail
link.
Clicking
Detail
will open the Entry 7501
screen. Open the Entry Header
tab and change the Post Summary Correction
field value to Y
.
Make the necessary changes, then proceed to the
Validate
and Finalize
processes as would be performed for a conventional entry to CBP. These processes are covered in full detail in the Validate
and Finalize
sections listed above in this User Guide.
After the entry has been finalized, review the “
Header Post Summary
” and/or “ Line Post Summary
” tabs. On these tabs, the system will automatically calculate the PSC Reason Codes based on the changes made to the entry.In the event a code is incorrect or missing, these codes can be manually updated without having to Revalidate or Refinalize. Refinalizing will remove any changes made to the Reason Codes.
Changes to header information on the entry will trigger the “
Header Post Summary
” tab to be visible on the entry.The
Explanation
text box is used for providing details on why a change was made to the entry. The Reason Code
box is used for choosing the CBP Reason Code that best explains why the entry is being re-filed with a Post-Summary Correction.
