Finding: 2024-053 - The amount of FY 24 Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits reported to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) as issued by the State’s EBT contractor, FIS, was $2,628,951 more than the amount of authorized benefits reported in data from DPA’s Eligib...
Finding: 2024-053 - The amount of FY 24 Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits reported to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) as issued by the State’s EBT contractor, FIS, was $2,628,951 more than the amount of authorized benefits reported in data from DPA’s Eligibility Information System (EIS). Furthermore, FIS could not provide a reliable audit trail of issuances. Questioned Costs: AL 10.551: $2,628,951 Assistance Listing Number: 10.551, 10.561 Assistance Listing Title: SNAP Cluster Views of Responsible Officials (state whether your agency agrees or disagrees with the finding; if you disagree, briefly explain why): The department agrees with the finding, but not the questioned cost. The Division of Public Assistance performs monthly reconciliations and balancing efforts to ensure accuracy with routine FIS reports, EIS authorization and issuance reports, and federal reporting. However, the division agrees that a new ad hoc report created for this audit by the EBT contractor, FIS, does not match with issuances and reporting. Corrective Action (corrective action planned): The Division of Public Assistance will work with the EBT contractor, FIS, through the contract performance management process to address discrepancies found between a non standard ad hoc report and program issuances and reporting. The division will evaluate further ad hoc reports against previously established documents for accuracy. Completion Date (list anticipated completion date): The department anticipates the finding will be resolved in FY2026.

2023-01: Segregation of Duties Name of contact person: Stephen Bontekoe, Program Coordinator Corrective Action: Duties and functions will be reviewed to determine where segregation needs to occur. The duties will be separated as much as possible and alternative controls will be implemented to compensate for lack of segregation. However, the risk of not segregated certain duties are not worth the additional costs. Nonfinancial employees will be trained and provide some assistance. Proposed completion date: The Board will implement the above procedure immediately.

Finding 2024-004 – Cash Collateralization (Repeat Finding 2023-003) Condition: During our review of the Coalition’s cash, it was noted that as of September 30, 2024, they have. not collateralized cash balances more than the amounts insured by the Federal Despot Insurance Corporation. Cash balances of $7,596,383 were uninsured at September 30, 2024. Unearned revenue was reported at approximately $4,434,584 which includes advance payments of Federal Funds. Corrective Action Plan – Finding 2024-004 Corrective Action: In response to the finding regarding the lack of collateralization for cash balances exceeding the amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Nebraska Urban Indian Health Coalition (NUIHC) acknowledges that corrective actions were initially delayed due to the illness and eventual retirement of the former CEO. However, under new leadership, these actions have since been fully implemented. As of April 2025, NUIHC is in full compliance with the cash collateralization requirements outlined in 2 CFR §200.305(b)(7). A formal cash collateralization agreement has been executed with our financial institutions, ensuring that all cash balances—including advanced federal funds—are now either insured or properly collateralized. In addition to entering into this agreement, the following measures are in the process to strengthen ongoing compliance: 1. Updated Cash Management Policies: Policies are being reviewed and revised to reflect current federal requirements and internal procedures regarding custodial credit risk and cash handling practices. 2. Monitoring and Compliance Controls: A monitoring system is in place to routinely review cash balances and coordinate with our financial institution to ensure all funds remain protected. 3. Staff Training: Targeted training was provided to financial and accounting staff to ensure continued understanding of cash collateralization requirements and the importance of ongoing compliance. Implementation Summary: • Cash Collateralization Agreement: Completed – April 2025 • Policy Revisions and Monitoring System: In process– July 2025 • Staff Training: Completed by – August 2025 Responsible Party: Chief Financial Officer, Carlett Gregory

Finding Reference Number: 2024-001 Description of Finding: Expenditures totaling $273,298 were incorrectly charged to the 93.464 program for a fiscal year in which the costs were not actually incurred.

Finding Reference Number: 2024-001 Description of Finding: Expenditures totaling $273,298 were incorrectly charged to the 93.464 program for a fiscal year in which the costs were not actually incurred. This misclassification resulted from recording expenses based on the purchase order date (September 30) rather than the actual service date, leading to overbilling for the grant year. Statement of Concurrence or Nonconcurrence: We concur with the audit finding regarding the misclassification of expenditures totaling $273,298 to the 93.464 program after the fiscal year-end. We acknowledge that these costs were recorded in the incorrect accounting period, resulting in an overstatement of grant expenditures for the fiscal year. Corrective Action: 1. Policy Update: CFILC will revise expense recognition policies to require that costs be recorded in the period matching the actual service date. 2. Year-End Review Process: CFILC will implement a formal review process at fiscal year-end to confirm expenses are attributed to the correct fiscal year. 3. Staff Training: CFILC will provide training for financial reporting and grant billing staff on the expense recognition policy and year-end review process. 4. Monitoring & Compliance: CFILC will establish periodic internal audits or reviews to ensure ongoing compliance with the updated procedures. 5. Finance Committee Oversight: Executive Director will report to the Finance Committee on the status of this corrective action plan by the completion date of December 31, 2025. Name of Contact Person: Kathrine Crowley, Acting Executive Director, kathrine@cfilc.org, (916) 232-1985 Projected Completion Date: December 31, 2025

FINDINGS - MAJOR FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAM AUDIT Department of Housing and Urban Development Finding, 2024-005: Major Programs: Capital Advance Program, Federal Assistance Listing Number 14.U01 and Section 8 New Construction and Substantial Rehabilitation, Federal Assistance Listing Number 14.182 RECOMMENDATION The auditor recommends ensuring all tenant’s paperwork is thoroughly reviewed and accurately used in the calculation of the tenant’s required monthly rent and HUD’s tenant assistance payments. ACTION TAKEN Carrasquillo Management LLC acknowledges the audit finding related to rent miscalculations for five tenant files during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024. These errors resulted in both minor tenant overcharges and undercharges, as well as corresponding discrepancies in HUD’s rental assistance payments. 1. Financial Corrections ○ The Project will reimburse the two affected tenants a total of $14 to correct the overcharges. ○ The Project will submit a request to HUD to repay the $14 in overpaid rental assistance associated with these tenants. ○ For the three tenants who were undercharged a total of $826, the Project will bill the tenants for the rent differential in accordance with HUD regulations and provide HUD with reimbursement of the $826 in excess rental assistance paid. 2. File Review and Quality Control Measures Management has implemented a secondary file review process for all certifications and recertifications to ensure that income is correctly verified, entered, and calculated in accordance with HUD Handbook 4350.3 requirements. All tenant income documentation will be double-checked by the compliance team prior to finalizing certifications. 3. Staff Training All staff involved in income verification and rent calculation have been retrained on HUD rent calculation guidelines, including handling of paystubs, Social Security statements, and other income documentation. Training includes real-case scenarios and common error prevention techniques. 4. Compliance Oversight Moving forward, Carrasquillo Management LLC will conduct quarterly internal audits of a random sample of tenant files to verify the accuracy of income calculations and ensure compliance with HUD regulations. Carrasquillo Management LLC remains committed to ensuring the accuracy of tenant rent determinations and maintaining compliance with HUD’s income calculation requirements. All necessary reimbursements and corrective actions will be completed promptly and documented for HUD’s records.

FINDINGS - MAJOR FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAM AUDIT Department of Housing and Urban Development Finding, 2024-003: Major Programs: Capital Advance Program, Federal Assistance Listing Number 14.U01 and Section 8 New Construction and Substantial Rehabilitation, Federal Assistance Listing Number 14.182 RECOMMENDATION The auditor recommends management review the HUD Handbook on determining eligible income included in the management fee calculation. ACTION TAKEN Carrasquillo Management LLC acknowledges the auditor’s finding regarding the overcharged management fee of $13,884 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024. The overcharge occurred during the management transition in March 2024. The outgoing management company, Mount Holyoke Management LLC, issued and received a management fee payment for the full month of March despite their services ending early in the month. Carrasquillo Management LLC officially took over management of the Project on March 9, 2024, and also received the management fee for services rendered during the remainder of that month. This resulted in both management companies receiving compensation for the same period, causing the annual management fee to exceed HUD’s allowable limits. Corrective Actions: 1. Fee Review and Adjustment Carrasquillo Management LLC is working with the auditor and ownership to correct the management fee overcharge in the Project’s financial records. Any necessary adjustments or reimbursements will be made to bring the project into compliance. 2. HUD Handbook Compliance Training Management has reviewed the relevant guidance in HUD Handbook 4381.5 Revision 2 and is ensuring that all future management fee calculations strictly follow HUD’s criteria for eligible income and fee limits. 3. Transition Protocols To prevent this issue from recurring during future management transitions, Carrasquillo Management LLC has developed a formal transition protocol that includes a reconciliation of income and fees and written confirmation of responsibilities to avoid any overlapping charges. 4. Oversight and Internal Controls All future management fee calculations will be reviewed and approved by the Regional Manager and Accounting Department to verify accuracy and compliance with HUD guidelines prior to disbursement. Carrasquillo Management LLC remains committed to ensuring proper financial stewardship of HUD program funds and maintaining compliance with all applicable regulations.

Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions: The documentation supporting program check requests is maintained by the program staff in the client files. When requesting a disbursement for a client, the case manager prepares a check request after following the process prescribed by the program and contract for determining an allowable disbursement. The check request is then reviewed and approved by a supervisor who also checks for eligibility and allowability of the disbursement. Only the approved check request is provided to the finance office to create the disbursement to avoid duplication of records. The client files and these records have been reviewed during site visits and previous audits without exception and with no delay in providing requested information. To further improve this process, however, the program has added a new form to be completed for each new client’s rental costs clearly identifying the costs to be paid and the source information for those costs. The supervisor reviewing disbursement requests will also affirmatively indicate on the check request that they have verified this documentation in the client file. Responsible Official: Molly Archer, Chief Operating Officer and Valorie Crout, Chief Program Officer Anticipated Completion Date: 6/1/2025

El Proyecto del Barrio, Inc. acknowledges the finding related to the incorrect administration of sliding fee discounts. We are committed to strengthening the administration of the sliding fee program to ensure full compliance with grant requirements. To address these issues and prevent recurrence, the following corrective actions are being implemented: 1. Revised Application and Documentation Requirements: o The Sliding Fee Program application forms are being updated to include structured sections for staff to record income from supporting documentation (e.g., pay stubs, tax returns), rather than relying on the patient to write their income on the application, which will greatly reduce incorrect income stated on support. Staff will be responsible for calculating annual gross income based on supporting documentation and have a checklist to ensure documentation is complete and retained/uploaded in the system. 2. Two-Step Review Process: o A staff member (the “Preparer) will calculate the annual gross income, determine the household size, and determine the eligible sliding fee discount, and a second staff member (the “Reviewer”) will independently review and verify the Preparer’s calculations and determinations based on the supporting documentation. Both parties will document their review of the application to establish accountability. 3. Staff Training and Ongoing Competency Checks: o Comprehensive refresher training will be provided to all staff involved in the sliding fee program process, including the use of the poverty guidelines, income calculation methods, the new forms, entering income and household size into the system, and uploading support to the system. 4. Formal Review: o The Billing Department will conduct regular audits of completed sliding fee applications and eligibility determination forms to ensure compliance with policies. Errors will be tracked and addressed through corrective action and coaching. El Proyecto del Barrio, Inc. remains committed to accurate, compliant, and equitable implementation of the Sliding Fee Program.

The Authority will work to implement a process to ensure that every drawdown request is accompanied by the required supporting documentation. In addition, the supporting documentation will be reviewed to ensure that it meets eligibility and "just-in-time" requirements prior to the Executive Director signing the request.

Of these, the Authority was unable to provide sufficient supporting documentation to substantiate the eligibility, timing, or purpose of the drawdowns for two vouchers. In addition, for one voucher, the Authority did not provide evidence of immediate obligations or expenditures to support the drawdown, indicating a potential violation of the federal "just-in-time" funding requirement. Planned Corrective Action: Fiscal Year 2024 was a year marked by personnel turnover in key administrative, accounting, and human resources positions.

Bank Reconciliations, Interfund Balances Reconciliations and Balance Sheet Account Reconciliations Auditor’s Recommendation: We recommend that the District prepare bank reconciliations soon after the end of each month. As part of the reconciliation process the District’s general ledger cash balances should be compared against the bank reconciliation, with any differences being immediately investigated. Once complete, the bank reconciliation should be reviewed by someone independent of the preparer. In addition, a worksheet should be developed which reconciles interfund balances on a monthly basis. Any differences in the reconciliation process should be immediately investigated. We recommend that asset and liability accounts be reconciled on a regular and routine basis. Further, reconciliations should be reviewed by management to ensure their accurate and timely completion. School District’s Response: Brandy Ferraro, Business Manager, will ensure that bank reconciliations are prepared in a timely manner and verify that balances within the general ledger cash accounts agree to the bank reconciliation, along with ensuring that interfund balances reconcile and that balance sheet asset and liabilities are reconciled to supporting documentation during the year ending June 30, 2025.

Please be advised that the project is about to convert its loan from New York City Housing Development Corporation in the next few months.

Federal Agency Name: Department of Agriculture Program Name: Communities Facilities Loans and Grants Federal Financial Assistance Listing Number: 10.766 Finding Summary: As a part of the audit process, a reclassification entry was made to move the funds from the cash sweep general fund to a separate bookkeeping account. Management did not track the funds in a separate bank or bookkeeping account throughout the year. The Hospital had excess cash available to cover the required reserve amount for the fiscal year. Responsible Individuals: Renae Karst, Chief Financial Officer Corrective Action Plan: Management will establish a separate bookkeeping account in the general ledger to establish the correct reserve amount of cash held within its general operating bank account. The separate bookkeeping account will be utilized throughout the year to ensure the reserve requirement is met. The reserve account will be part of total cash in the bank to maximize interest earned on the reserve balance. Anticipated Completion Date: October 1, 2024.

Title: Capital Fund Program Grant Draws Program Name: Public Housing Capital Fund ALN:14.872 Description: During our audit procedures over revenue recognition for the Capital Fund Program (CFP), we identified drawdowns of federal funds for which the client was unable to provide adequate supporting documentation. Specifically, the expenditures associated with the draw requests lacked invoices, contracts, or other substantiating records to demonstrate that the costs were allowable, allocable, and incurred in accordance with applicable federal requirements. Planned Corrective Action: Today’s Marlboro County Housing Authority management acknowledges the auditor’s finding that documentation to support certain CFP drawdowns was incomplete or missing and concurs that this represents a failure to comply with Uniform Guidance documentation requirements under 2 CFR §200.302 and §200.403. The Authority recognizes the importance of maintaining complete and accurate supporting records—such as invoices, contracts, and payment documentation—to substantiate costs charged to federal programs and ensure allowability and allocability under the Capital Fund Program. Effective October 1st, 2024, all draw requests under the Capital Fund Program ARE supported by: • Approved contracts or purchase orders • Invoices or other source documents • Proof of payment (e.g., canceled checks, ACH confirmations) • Documentation clearly linking each expense to an approved activity in the CFP Annual Statement
