The Federal agency or pass-through entity may not collect financial reports more frequently than quarterly unless a specific condition has been implemented in accordance with § 200.208. To the extent practicable, the Federal agency or pass-through entity should collect financial reports in coordination with performance reports. The recipient must submit financial reports as required by the Federal award. In the YouthBuild Grant Condition of Award, U.S. Department of Labor, Section 12 Administrative Requirements, Part L, Reports, Section A, Quarterly Financial Reports, all ETA grant award recipients are required to report financial data on the ETA-9130 Financial Report. ETA-9130 reports are due no later than 45 calendar days after the end of each specified reporting quarter. Condition: The School did not submit the quarter ending December 31, 2023 ETA-9130 Quarterly Financial Report until February 20, 2024, six days after the deadline of February 14, 2024. Questioned Costs: None. Identification of How Questioned Costs Were Computed: N/A Context: Auditor reviewed the ETA-9130 Quarterly Financial Report for period ending December 31, 2023 via submission through the U.S. Department of Labor’s Payment Management System, and noted the School did not submit the report until February 20, 2024, which was six days after the deadline of February 14, 2024. Cause and Effect: The School did not have procedures in place to review and submit the ETA-9130 Quarterly Financial Report timely. As a result, the School filed the Quarter Ending December 31, 2023 ETA-9130 Quarterly Financial Report after the required due date. Recommendation: We recommend that the School implement a process to ensure that future Quarterly Financial Reports are filed by the required due date.
