Finding #2024-002 Housing Voucher Cluster Reporting Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action The Authority’s accounting team has been coordinating closely with HUD-Honolulu to resolve the submission of our unaudited and audited Fiscal Year (FY) 2020 and 2021 financial data, as required by June 6, 2024. Provided is a breakdown of the Authority’s progress: 1. FY 2020 unaudited submission was sent to HUD on May 18, 2024, and has since been approved. 2. FY 2021 unaudited submission is completed and has been inputted into FASS-PH. 3. FY 2020 and 2021 audited submissions require certification from an Independent Public Auditor (IPA). The Authority is currently in the process of procuring an IPA for this purpose, and the Request for Quotation (RFQ) is ongoing. 4. FY 2022 audited submission was unfortunately rejected by our current IPA on May 23, 2024. The Authority and the auditing firm are actively working together to address this and to ensure the reporting requirements are met. 5. FY 2023 unaudited submission has been approved by HUD. 6. FY 2023 audited submission is completed and inputted into FASS-PH. The Authority and the current IPA are working together to submit the report to HUD. 7. FY 2024 unaudited submission has been approved by HUD. 8. FY 2024 audited submission will be inputted and completed once the audit is completed. FDS line items 11170, 11180, 96900 are calculated amounts in the FASS-PH. These FDS line items are not reported in the Authority’s General Ledget Accounts, therefore a comparison should not be performed. The Authority is committed to fulfilling all reporting requirements accurately and timely. The Authority will continue to prioritize these submissions. Responsible Party: Frances Danieli, Controller Anticipated Date of Completion: Ongoing effort with the IPA and HUD
