Condition and Context - The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development uses the Voucher Management System (VMS) to collect Public Housing Agency’s (PHA) data that enables HUD to fund, obligate, and disburse funding. For the fiscal year, the Housing Authority did not submit the correct restricted net position amounts.
Effect - With incorrect amounts submitted in the VMS, the PHA could receive funds based on incorrect restricted net position amounts.
Cause - The Housing Authority lacked the ability to correctly calculate restricted net position amounts in the monthly VMS submission.
Criteria - According to the Voucher Management Systems (VMS) User Manual, PHA’s should enter accurate amounts in the monthly VMS submissions.
Repeat Finding - This finding is similar to prior year finding 2022-104.
Recommendation - The other auditors recommended management hire and retain competent individuals to handle the monthly VMS submission.
Note - Finding noted by other auditors as finding 2023-001.
Condition and Context - As of June 30, 2023, the restricted cash for the housing program does not exceed the ending housing assistance payment (HAP) restricted net position.
Effect - The Housing Authority was not in compliance with the activities allowed by the Housing Voucher program.
Cause - The Authority lacked the ability to correctly manage HAP funding by properly reporting the restricted net position.
Criteria - 24 CFR §886.309, Housing assistance payment to owners, Public Housing Agency’s may use housing funds only for HAP participating owners. Furthermore, the current year HAP funding must be used for current year HAP expenses. The PHA’s restricted net position provides the balance in future years of the prior unspent funding.
Repeat Finding - This finding is similar to prior year finding 2022-105.
Recommendation - The other auditors recommended management hire and retain competent individuals to calculate the restricted net position, HAP reserves and properly manage spending of funds.
