Subject:     Professional Standards Update No. 79, July through December 2020

To alert you to changes in professional standards, we periodically issue Professional Standards Updates
(PSU). The purpose of these updates is to highlight the effective dates and issuance of recent standards
and guidance related to engagements conducted in accordance with Government Auditing Standards.1
PSUs  contain summary information only, and those affected by a change should refer to the respective
standard or guidance for details. This PSU has three sections.

  Section I identifies selected standards and guidance that are coming into effect and are relevant for
   audits of financial statements for periods that ended in June 2020 through December 2020.

  Section II identifies selected standards and guidance that have been deferred but would have been
   relevant for audits of financial statements for periods ending June 2020 through December 2020.

  Section III identifies selected standards and guidance that were issued from July 2020 through
   December  2020.
