From whom does the Certifying Officer have the right to seek an advance decision before certifying a questionable voucher?

General Counsel
Accountable Officials
Internal Auditor
Financial Officer

The correct answer is: General Counsel

The correct answer is the General Counsel. In situations where a Certifying Officer encounters a questionable voucher that raises concerns about legality or compliance with applicable laws and regulations, seeking an advance decision from the General Counsel is a prudent course of action. The General Counsel is equipped to provide legal advice and guidance on the situation, ensuring that the Certifying Officer makes an informed decision that aligns with legal standards. This helps protect the officer from potential liability and ensures that disbursement of funds is made in accordance with the law. The other roles, while important in their respective capacities, typically do not provide the legal determinations necessary for addressing questionable vouchers. Accountable Officials may have oversight responsibilities but may not have the legal expertise needed for such decisions. The Internal Auditor focuses on compliance and internal controls but doesn't provide legal opinions. The Financial Officer may handle fiscal responsibilities but is not primarily responsible for legal guidance in matters of voucher certification.
