ACE REV-613, REV-603, and REV-615: What Each CAPE Report Shows and When It Populates

TL;DR – REV-613, REV-603 and REV-615 each do a different job and fill in at different times. Blank reports right after CAPE acceptance are expected, not a sign of a problem. Start with ES-022, CBP's CAPE Entry Summary Report, which shows your declaration, entry and refund numbers with principal and interest. REV-615 appears only after the Bulletin Notice of Liquidation. Run all of them from the Importer sub-account in ACE, not the TOP account.
What the reports are
CBP described all four in one CAPE bulletin on May 4, 2026, "CBP Offers Multiple ACE Reports for Monitoring CAPE Refund Claims" (CSMS #68536553). ES-022 and REV-615 are CAPE-specific; REV-603 and REV-613 also cover refunds generally.
ES-022: CAPE Entry Summary Report. Links the CAPE declaration, entry and refund numbers, and shows principal and interest separately (CSMS #68536553). This is the source for how much CAPE calculated for each entry, and the best place to start.
REV-613: ACH Rejected Refunds Report. Shows refunds rejected because ACH Refund enrollment was incomplete (CSMS #68536553). Importers have also reported a reason of "SAP ACH rejected" on some entries of one claim while others paid; CBP has not explained that reason publicly. An empty REV-613 is the correct outcome for an IOR with ACH Refund enrollment in place.
REV-603: Trade Refund Report. Shows each refund's Refund Secondary Status: Sent to Treasury, Treasury Issued, Funds Diverted, or Check/ACH Returned (CSMS #68536553). "Sent to Treasury" means CBP passed the refund to Treasury for payment, not that the money has reached your bank. "Funds Diverted" means CBP applied an offset under 19 CFR 24.72 before paying.
REV-615: CAPE Details Refunds Report. CBP says it builds on REV-603 and gives entry summary-level detail for CAPE declarations sent to Treasury (CSMS #68536553). CBP's FAQ describes it as providing "consolidated CAPE refund information as well as entry-level refund information." It appears only after the Bulletin Notice of Liquidation for the entry.
Tip from CBP: add the CF 4811 Notify Party name and number fields when you run these reports, so you can see which refunds were routed to a notify party (CSMS #68536553).
When each report populates
ES-022 reflects what CAPE accepted and calculated. Use it first.
REV-613 fills in only if a payment was rejected. An empty REV-613 at any stage is not a problem.
REV-603 fills in once the refund is passed to Treasury, after reliquidation. CBP's CSMS #68340863 sets two schedules:
- Entries already liquidated within the 80-day window reliquidate the next business day after CAPE acceptance.
- Unliquidated entries are set to liquidate 45 days from the CAPE acceptance date.
A blank REV-603 before the refund goes to Treasury is not an error. A clean accepted declaration can show empty REV-603 for six weeks and still be on track (CSMS #68340863).
REV-615 fills in after the Bulletin Notice of Liquidation. For unliquidated entries, that means after the 45-day liquidation.
One order that works for checking, from Liberty Justice Center's guide: CAPE tab, then ES-022, ES-701, REV-603, REV-615, REV-613.
Quick reference
| Report | Official CBP name | What it covers | When it populates |
|---|---|---|---|
| ES-022 | CAPE Entry Summary Report | Declaration, entry and refund numbers; principal and interest | After CAPE acceptance |
| REV-613 | ACH Rejected Refunds Report | Payment failures at ACH delivery | Only if a rejection occurred. Empty = no failures |
| REV-603 | Trade Refund Report | Refund Secondary Status: Sent to Treasury, Treasury Issued, Funds Diverted, Check/ACH Returned | When the refund goes to Treasury, after reliquidation |
| REV-615 | CAPE Details Refunds Report | Consolidated and entry-level CAPE refund detail | After the Bulletin Notice of Liquidation |
Where to find them in ACE
Run the reports from the Importer sub-account. Running them from the TOP account returns no data, regardless of what's filed. This is the most common reason all of them look empty when they're not.
In ACE Portal: Accounts, then Importer sub-account, then Reports, then Standard Reports. Search by report name. The reports pull from the IOR's account, so the sub-account must match the IOR on the CAPE declaration.
What "Funds Diverted" means in REV-603
CBP's wording: "funds have been diverted for an existing bill. Diversion occurs after liquidation of the entry summary, before the refund is issued" (CSMS #68536553). Under 19 CFR 24.72, CBP sets off debts that are "legally fixed and undisputed" against a refund before paying. CBP has not said it gives advance notice.
Common situations where this appears: open bills, unresolved AD/CVD amounts, open bond claims or penalty notices, and earlier entries that reliquidated at a higher duty. If REV-603 shows a lower amount than expected, or nothing left, the difference went to that debt. CBP's CAPE rules say the refund is the IEEPA duties minus any unpaid bills (CSMS #68340863).
A different case: if REV-603 shows "Treasury Issued" for the full ES-022 amount but your bank received less, that is likely the Treasury Offset Program, run by Treasury for other federal debts, not CBP. The bank line usually reads TCS TREAS 449 instead of CBP TREAS 310. Call the TOP line at 800-304-3107.
If REV-615 is still blank
REV-615 appears only after the Bulletin Notice of Liquidation, so a blank REV-615 before that is normal. If the CAPE tab shows accepted, the 45-day window has passed, the entry is not Extended or Suspended, and REV-615 still shows nothing, email IEEPARefunds@cbp.dhs.gov with the CAPE claim number and the IOR name.
For entries in Extended, Suspended or Under Review status, the 45-day target doesn't apply. CAPE calculates the refund but pays when the entry liquidates, with no predictable date (CSMS #68340863).
Frequently asked questions
All the REV reports are blank two weeks after CAPE accepted. Did something go wrong? For unliquidated entries, this is normal. REV-603 and REV-615 don't fill in until after liquidation, which targets 45 days from acceptance. Check ES-022 for the calculated amounts in the meantime. If nothing has moved past day 60 to 90, email IEEPARefunds@cbp.dhs.gov with the CAPE claim number.
My already-liquidated entries were accepted, but REV-603 is still empty a week later. Why? Already-liquidated entries reliquidate the next business day after acceptance per CSMS #68340863, but REV-603 fills in only once the refund is passed to Treasury. Confirm you're running REV-603 from the Importer sub-account, not the TOP account. If the sub-account is correct and nothing appears for several weeks, email IEEPARefunds@cbp.dhs.gov.
REV-603 shows a lower amount than I calculated. Is that an error? Check the Refund Secondary Status column first. "Funds Diverted" means CBP applied an offset against an outstanding customs debt under 19 CFR 24.72. Netting at reliquidation can also lower the refund when other duty lines on the entry come out higher. Also check the rate period for entries near key rate changes: 9903.01.63 ran at 125% from April 10 to May 13, 2025 only; 9903.01.24 changed on November 10, 2025.
Do I need to do anything to activate REV-615? No. No separate enrollment is required. If it's returning no data, the entry may not have liquidated yet.
REV-613 shows a rejected payment. What do I do? Log into your Importer sub-account, open the ACH Refund Authorization tab, and confirm or update your US bank account information. Then follow CBP's Replacement Refund Instructions (CSMS #68315804); questions about rejected ACH go to frn-achrefundsupport@cbp.dhs.gov. Full steps are in the ACH Setup Guide.
I filed through a broker. Which account do I check? REV-615 reflects the declaration tied to your IOR account. REV-603 and REV-613 follow the refund destination: if the refund routes to your ACH, it shows in your account; if it routes to a broker named as your Form 4811 notify party, it appears in theirs. Add the CF 4811 Notify Party fields to see which. Confirm with your broker who is enrolled as refund recipient before assuming the reports are missing data.
