court about, and bring about improvements in the defendant's conduct and condition.

1. The defendant must report to the probation office in the federal judicial district where they are authorized to reside within 72
hours of their release from imprisonment, unless the probation officer instructs the defendant to report to a different probation
office or within a different time frame.

defendant works or anything about their work (such as their position or their job responsibilities), the defendant must notify the
