Finding Details

2023-1 Excess Residual Receipts Condition: The Project did not prepare a HUD 9250 to remit excess residual receipts, nor did it mail a check or transmit a wire of those funds. Criteria: According to the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2017, owners subject to a Section 202 or 811 Project Rental Assistance Contract (PRAC) are required to remit any excess balance in a Residual Receipts account, greater than $250 per unit, to HUD’s Accounting Center upon termination or renewal of the PRAC contract. Cause: The cause is undeterminable. Effect: Residual receipts balance is $17,507 as of December 31, 2023. The allowable balance is $5,250 ($250 X 21 units), resulting in excess residual receipts of $12,257. Recommendation: I recommend the Property prepare the HUD 9250 requesting to remit excess funds to HUD.

Cause: The cause is undeterminable. Effect: The Project is not in compliance with the Regulatory Agreement. The cash balance was overstated by $1,076 related to deposits that were never made to this account. The balance was corrected during the audit.
