These internal controls should be in compliance with guidance in “Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government” issued by the Comptroller General of the United States or the “Internal Control Integrated Framework”, issued by the Committee of Sponsoring the Organization of the Treadway Commission (COSO).” Condition: During testing of reporting, it was noted that, for one sample, documentation was not retained of approval of financial reporting. Questioned Costs: None Context: A sample of 9 financial reports was made from a population of 54 total reports. Of the 9 sampled, 1 was missing evidence of authorized personnel review and approval. Cause: In this one instance, verbal approval was given rather than emailed approval. Effect: Without adequate documentation and controls in place to ensure costs are reasonable and intended for the program charged, Sound Generations could incorrectly charge expenditures to the federal program, report fraudulent expenditures, or not request appropriate reimbursement that Sound Generations is entitled to under the terms of the grant. Repeat Finding: No. Recommendation: CLA recommends that documentation is retained as proof of authorized personnel review. Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions: Sound Generations agrees with the finding. Sound Generations has revised its approval process to include digital signatures with time stamps by authorized personnel on all documentation rather than emailed approvals.

Action Taken: MHA will review and enhance as necessary the program’s existing quality control (QC) file review procedures as well as daily data validation reports to include a measure that cross-checks existing reports in the Yardi system of record and aids in validating data routinely submitted to HUD’s PIC system. To further mitigate the risk posed by frequent turnover among Housing Specialist-I (HS-I) staff, MHA will increase the frequency of training on rent and income determination for all staff including tenured team members and new hires, alike, to occur quarterly. In 2023, MHA implemented a Housing Specialist-II Team Lead to oversee HS-I staff processing annual reexaminations in accordance with 24 CFR 982.516. This team member is responsible for ensuring families are notified in a timely manner and if they do not comply with the annual reexamination requirement, they receive termination notices in compliance with HUD and MHA Administrative Plan requirements. MHA also implemented two compliance analysts in 2023; we will add another compliance analyst staff person in 2024 to increase the percentage of files undergoing quality control review. These three (3) Compliance Analyst will report to the Operations and Compliance Manager who monitors HUD’s PIC system and analyzes discrepancies between PIC data and MHA data housed in the Yardi system of record. This information is maintained in the program file. Name of Responsible Person: Paul and Magdalene Watkins, Program Administration Team Projected Completion Date: 12/31/2024
