Management’s Response and Corrective Action Plan: MLSC management acknowledges the finding and concurs in part. MLSC has an established Fixed Asset and Capitalization Policy in accordance with LSC Financial Guide § 3.6.1, which includes maintaining a detailed subsidiary ledger and lapsing (depreciation) schedule. During the audit, the lapsing schedule was provided to the auditors upon request. However, the master fixed asset record (which includes itemized property details, funding source, and location) was not submitted because it was not requested during the audit process. Responsible person: Chief Fiscal Officer, Jocelyn Mallari Corrective action planned: To further ensure full compliance and to strengthen documentation and transparency, MSLC, with the supervision of the Chief Fiscal Officer, MLSC continues to enforce the existing Fixed Asset and Capitalization Policy and ensures that all property records are maintained in accordance with LSC Financial Guide 3.6.1. MLSC ensures to conduct periodic internal review of fixed assets registry and continues to maintain these records and made them readily available and provided to auditors, even if not specifically requested. Anticipated completion date: Completed.

Management’s Response and Corrective Action Plan: MLSC management would like to provide the following clarification regarding the finding that MLSC did not use the prior-year end fund balance before expending the current year’s LSC grant. Just in the first month of 2024, we already have a substantial deficit from the funding that we received. We have started using the fund balance that is in our bank account. There was no other source of funds for us but the fund balance. Being non-profit, whatever is on hand is used first and whatever is received last is the actual cash on hand at the end of the year. It is also important to note that MLSC’s local funder's grants are not received on a regular monthly basis. Some are disbursed quarterly, and FSM is received only once—typically toward the end of the fiscal year. The appearance of using current-year funds first is due to the timing and presentation in the audit schedule, not the actual fund flow. Responsible person: Chief Fiscal Officer, Jocelyn Mallari Corrective action planned: None Anticipated completion date: Completed.

COUNTY OF WASHINGTON, NEW YORK Corrective Action Plan Year ended December 31, 2024 To Whom It May Concern: There were two finding reported for corrective action in Washington County's single audit for the year ended December 31, 2024. The findings and the County’s response are listed below: Finding 2024-002 Criteria - In accordance with Uniform Guidance, 2 CFR § 200.512(a)(1), non-federal entities that are required to have a Single Audit must submit the audit reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receiving the auditors’ reports, or nine months after the end of the fiscal year. The non-federal entity is responsible for submitting the reporting package, which includes the Data Collection Form (DCF) and the required audit reports. Condition - Management did not submit the reporting package including the DCF for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, to the FAC by the deadline of September 30, 2025. Cause - The auditee experienced delays in providing necessary information to the external auditors, which led to the late filing. Effect of Condition - Failure to submit the single audit on time is a violation of federal regulations and will result in the County not being a low-risk auditee for the next two audit periods. Recommendation - Management should implement internal controls and procedures to ensure the timely submission of future reporting packages and the DCFs to the FAC. This should include establishing a project timeline and assigning responsibilities of key tasks to County employees as necessary. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action - The County Treasurer and Board of Supervisors will develop and implement internal controls and procedures to ensure the timely submission of future reporting packages to the FAC. Management expects to have this developed in time for the audit of the year ended December 31, 2025.

Finding Number: 2024-004 Reporting (Material Weakness) Programs: Unaccompanied Children Program ALN#93.676 Contract#: 90ZU0323 & 90ZU0548 Contract Period: 07/01/23 - 06/30/24 Planned Corrective Action: The auditors noted that one SF-PPR quarterly report, two SF-425 quarterly reports, the annual federal financial report and the Uniform Guidance report were not submitted on time. Also, one SF-PRR quarterly report tested was noted to have not been submitted. Management acknowledges these items. Since that time, corrective actions have been implemented to improve timeliness, accuracy, and documentation: Management has reinforced the importance of timely filing through internal policies and incorporated review steps to verify completeness and accuracy of each report before submission. Ownership of report preparation and review responsibilities has been clearly assigned to designated Program and Finance staff. a) A centralized reporting calendar has been established, identifying all required submission deadlines under Uniform Guidance §200.328, §200.329, and §200.512. b) A standardized reconciliation template is now being used for the SF-425 to ensure all amounts reported can be tied directly to accounting records and underlying support. These improvements are designed to ensure ongoing compliance with all federal reporting requirements and to prevent recurrence of these issues in future reporting periods.

Finding Number: 2024-002 Closing Process (Significant Deficiency) Planned Corrective Action: The auditors noted issues related to the timeliness of the financial statement close process, additional entries to finalize the trial balance, and a lack of segregation of duties which led to journal entries being prepared, reviewed and posted by the same person in the general ledger system. The issues noted were largely the result of significant turnover within the Finance Department, including the departure of the former head of the department without a proper transfer of institutional knowledge to remaining staff or incoming leadership. Since that time, oversight has improved considerably, and key processes have been reviewed, updated, and formally documented. While the current size of the Finance Team necessitates that the same individual generally enters and posts journal entries, we have implemented compensating controls that we believe are appropriate given the assessed levels of risk and materiality. These controls include role-specific responsibilities for journal entries and reconciliations. For example, with respect to cash activity, different team members handle cash receipts, disbursements, and inter-account transfers. Additionally monthly bank reconciliations are formally reviewed and signed off by Fiscal Department management. Management remains committed to strengthening internal controls, maintaining adequate segregation of duties to the extent practicable, and continuing to enhance the overall financial close and reporting process. Person Responsible: The Executive Director and Chief Financial Officer Completion Date: July 2024
