The findings from the December 31, 2024, Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs are discussed below. The findings are numbered consistently with the number assigned in the schedule. Finding 2024-001 U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Moving to Work Demonstration Program - ALN 14.881 Eligibility and Reporting Repeat Finding from 2021(2021-001), 2022(2022-001), and 2023 (2023-001) Maher Duessel Finding Condition: During our review of 40 tenant files prepared by the Housing Authority of the City of Pittsburgh (Authority) as part of the biennial reexamination process, we noted a lack of functioning internal controls which led to the below exceptions in our testing. We noted four instances where a tenant recertification using the HUD-50058, Family Report (Form) (which provides eligibility and reporting information) was not completed, on a timely basis. We also noted one instance where other documentation to support the reporting and eligibility assessment as part of completion of the HUD-50058 was not provided. This includes items such as support for income calculation and medical deductions. These exceptions indicate a lack of functioning internal controls and oversight to ensure compliance with HUD requirements related to timely and accurate tenant recertifications. HACP Management Response/Action Taken: Action Taken: The HACP will continue to monitor and train staff regarding processes and procedures, to include and not limited to the Housing and Urban Development's (HUD) hierarchy of income verification. As noted in previous responses, the HACP continues to experience challenges in hiring and retaining staff as a result of the complexity of the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program. In fiscal year (FY) 2024, the HCV Department had a significant turnover in both line and managerial staff. The HACP promoted an aggressive hiring plan to attract new talent to fill vacant positions due to the great resignation that the HACP, along with other national Agencies, continue to experience. In addition, the HACP has adopted the policy of hiring more staff than needed in the event of turnover. The HACP will continue to utilize the Internal Compliance (IC) Department to review recertifications and compile audit report cards based on the accuracy of recertifications reviewed. The audit report cards are used as an additional management tool to determine whether additional training is needed for staff and the department in general. The HACP continues to: • Send notices regarding re-certifications 120 days in advance of the due date, o Send 10-day notices for missing AR documents o Send 30-day notices when there is no or insufficient response to the 10 day notice sent • Require Managers to review reports to assure timely submission of re-certifications, • Utilize the IC Department to review and sample files from the Occupancy and the HCV portfolio, • Offer periodic staff training on re-certification, • Offer participants the use of technology to complete paperwork In addition to the above noted internal controls, the HACP will institute Bob.ai in FY 2026 as an additional tool to notify both the participant and the HACP staff when the recertifications are due and provide notification of missing documents. The One Stop Shop (OSS) is staffed with three (3) full-time staff members to receive information from participants and landlords to provide timely customer service. In July of 2024, the OSS was equipped with computers for the public to access HACP staff virtually. The use of the computers allows staff to interact with participants regarding minor issues without having the staff physically come to the OSS, thus saving time and money for both the external customer and the Authority. The opening of the One Stop Shop has been successful in receiving the public and responding to concerns.

Prior RHA staff were not ensuring that the Utility Allowance schedules were being completed correctly and matching up to the 50058, which made the HAP incorrect. Of the forty (40) tenant files sampled by the auditors, seven (7) files did not have utility allowances calculated; two (2) files had 50058’s that did not agree with the HAP payments being paid to the landlords and four (4) files could not be located for testing. RHA had sent all of its paper files to a scanning company to have everything scanned and saved back onto our server for safekeeping. RHA has gone paperless and will not keep paper tenant files again. Some of the files that the auditors requested were either not scanned yet or we could not find. Staff continue to be trained and educated on the importance of ensuring all documents on in the digital tenant file with backup documentation for income / asset verification as well as ensure that the 50058 UA matches the 52667 form and scanned into their digital file of the voucher holder. These issues should begin to decrease as we cycle through and get all paperwork caught up. 2024 Annual Reexams were behind due to staffing issues in 2023 and into 2024.

Finding Number: 2024-002 Finding Title: Eligibility - METS Program: 93.778 Medical Assistance Program Name of Contact Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Jodi Halvorson Corrective Action Planned: Timelines: This error occurred from a worker that is no longer in our agency. It was discovered after the worker left that the application was filed away without processing. This is not our policy, and we will be discussing the importance of program timelines in our unit meeting. Verification of Citizenship status (error with SSN entry): This case was received from a previous county. The SSN was entered incorrectly which did not produce citizenship verification in the system. It was noted that there was a birth certificate on file, but METS case files do not get transferred between counties, so we did not have the birth certificate. The SSN was corrected which was able to ping the verification of the citizenship. Going forward, for the next 3 months we will be looking at each case that is transferred into our county to make sure the citizenship has been verified and if not, request the birth certificate or other verification. After the initial 3 months, we plan to do random case checks. Anticipated Completion Date: 9/15/25 we will have the unit meeting and discuss timelines 12/31/25 will be our 3-month goal of checking transferred in cases for citizenship
