Finding Details

Internal Control Impact: Significant deficiency Criteria: Under Uniform Guidance 2 CFR Section 200.512(a), the audit shall be completed and the data collection form and reporting package shall be electronically transmitted within the earlier of 30 days after receipt of the auditors’ reports, or nine (9) months after the end of the audit period. Condition: The Organization’s audit was not able to be completed and the data collection form and reporting package electronically transmitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within nine (9) months after the end of the audit period. Cause: The start of the Organization’s audit was delayed due to delays in closing the books and transmitting payments. Effect: Failure to complete the audit and submit the data collection form and reporting package timely could result in a failure to meet the requirements imposed by Federal grantor agencies and by the Uniform Guidance.

Views of Responsible Officials: Management of the Organization concurs with the finding. Please refer to the Corrective Action Plan.
