De Minimis Rate Used: Y Rate Explanation: Tiferes Yisroel, Inc. has elected to use the ten percent de minimis indirect cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance.

Criteria: The School is required to submit an audit to the State of New Jersey no later than nine months after their yearend. Cause: The School did not realize how long it takes to complete an audit and didn’t give the auditor enough time to complete the audit in time.
