Audit Finding: 2022-026 Emergency Rental Assistance Program: 21.023 Reporting Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance Summary: There was no review of the SF-425 reports or Quarterly Reports by an individual independent of the preparation of the reports. Recommendation: Implement internal controls to ensure reports are reviewed prior to submission. Agency Response: The Nevada Housing Division (“Division”) agrees with the finding. The Division would like to note, and be given consideration for, the substantive fact of the context of the time period in a pandemic, a once in a lifetime crisis that was impacting daily work and personal lives of all Nevadans, including Division staff. Corrective Action: The Division will establish an internal audit and compliance committee to enhance oversight of existing policies for assessing risk, monitoring, and sharing best practices across its business. The internal audit and compliance committee will be responsible for reviewing internal controls and policies on an annual basis, following up on any audit findings and ensuring follow-through of corrective action plans. This will include ensuring policies and procedures are followed in which reports submitted to federal funders are reviewed by an individual independent of the preparation of the reports.

Finding #: 2022-025 – Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Compliance Condition: Assistance listing numbers were not communicated at disbursement Cause: Adequate internal controls were not in place to ensure compliance Effect: Noncompliance at the subrecipient level may occur Corrective Action In February 2023, Court accounting staff were made aware of the need to include the CFDA # on payments made with federal funds and began including the CFDA # as part of the Line Description for all payables transmitted to the State, which was then included on the subrecipients’ remittance advices. If you have any questions, please contact Casandra Vanzura, Chief Accountant, at cvanzura@nvcourts.nv.gov. Sincerely, Todd Myler Chief Financial Officer

Audit Finding 2022-024: U.S. Department of the Treasury Coronavirus Relief Fund, 21.019 Finding: Some expenditures were not reported in the appropriate classification or by vendor. Recommendation: Recommend the Nevada Governor’s Finance Office (GFO) enhance internal controls to ensure Financial Progress Reports are prepared in accordance with governing requirements. Agency Response: Does the agency Agree with Finding: Yes Additional Comments: The GFO relied on the U.S. Department of Treasury guidance, frequently asked questions and other reporting and recordkeeping documents to administer the fund. This information was revised multiple times throughout the grant period, which was extended for an additional year on December 28, 2020, two days before it was to expire in December 2020 causing difficulties in decision determination. It wasn’t until the guidance for the American Rescue Plan Act was received and reviewed that the manner in which the reporting for the payments to state agencies was questioned. Corrective Action: On November 12, 2021, a request was sent to the CARES help desk at U.S. Department of Treasury for clarification regarding state agency reimbursements for COVID related expenditures. This response verified that reporting for state agency reimbursement needed to be completed for each vendor by contract, grant or direct payment over $50,000. Once confirmation was received from U.S. Department of Treasury, the process to determine expenditures by vendor over $50,000 (reporting under contract, direct or grant) for each State Agency Reimbursement Project by Fiscal Year. This analysis was in process while the Single Audit was ongoing and was completed and reported in GrantSolutions for the quarter ending June 2022. The reporting during this quarter was revised to address the finding of payroll costs separated by fiscal year according to the dropdown categories of substantially dedicated public health and safety and administrative leave. These payroll costs were eliminated from the Direct section in the reporting portal to the Aggregate of Direct Payments to Individuals section in the amount of $304,516,094 since the payroll was for the prime recipient.

Finding 2022-021 Investigations performed by the UI BAM supervisor or senior investigator are not reviewed by someone other than the investigator. In addition, completion of cases and timely data entry requirements were not met. A nonstatistical sample of 60 completed BAM cases out of a population of 734 was selected for testing. The investigator and reviewer were the same person for 17 of the cases tested. In addition, a time lapse report of case completion was examined for paid claims accuracy. Of these investigations, 85.19% of the cases were completed within 90 days, rather than the 95% required. In addition, the total completion was 92.12% complete, rather than the 98% completion required. Recommendation We recommend the Department implement internal controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties on all BAM investigations and to ensure timeliness requirements are met. Nevada DETR’s Response The Employment Security Division’s Unemployment Insurance Support Services (UISS) recognizes the importance of internal controls for a system of checks and balances to ensure no one person has control over all parts of BAM investigations, and to ensure investigation timeliness. Background: BAM timeliness has been impacted since 2020 due to many factors that include but are not limited to significant staff turnover (i.e., retirement, promotions, and recruitment/retainment of qualified staff). Historically, the BAM supervisor PCN 5089 has been tasked with training and reviewing new staff work and activities, which resulted in experienced investigators’ work not being reviewed in attempts to meet timeliness on other BAM cases. Nevada DETR ESD UISS’ Corrective Action Plan: Attached (ATTACHMENT A) is DETR’s Benefit Accuracy Measurement (BAM) Segregation of Duties Internal Control. Estimated Date of Completion: COMPLETED Contact Person: Kristine K. Nelson, ESD Administrator, DETR/ESD (775)684-3828, kknelson@detr.nv.gov

Finding 2022-020 Amounts reported on the ETA 2112 were misreported by category (benefit type). A nonstatistical sample of four out of 12 monthly reports was selected for testing. Errors were noted on each of the four reports tested as follows: Month Ended July 31, 2021 • Deposit and disbursement total variances of $29,400. • Off-setting variances in specific benefits ranging from $1,069 to $522,826.

Month Ended April 30, 2022 • Off-setting variances in specific benefits ranging from $2,992 to $161,515. Recommendation We recommend the Department enhance the internal controls to ensure benefit payments are appropriately categorized by type. Nevada DETR’s Response DETR has revised the current internal control procedure to ensure benefit payments are appropriately categorized by type. Please reference the sections titled “Previous day Adjustments” and “Verify the Draw Request to Treasurer’s Draw Confirmation”.

Finding 2022-022 Accurate and timely subaward information was not reported in the FFATA Subaward Reporting System (FSRS). A nonstatistical sample of three out of a population of eight applicable subawards obligations during the year was selected for testing: Obligation dates were reported as October 1, 2021 for all three subawards rather than August 2, 2021 (two subawards) or September 22, 2021 (one subaward). Recommendation We recommend the Department implement internal controls to ensure subaward information is submitted in accordance with the FFATA. Nevada DETR’s Response DETR-Fiscal Management Unit has established a procedure for FFATA Sub-Contract and Award Reporting. This procedure was placed in effect in May 2023 and will be provided as an attachment to DETR’s corrective action plan. In addition to the newly implemented procedure, internal controls have been updated - the Grants and Projects Analyst will be responsible for implementing this process and ensuring the reports are submitted in accordance with the FFATA.

Finding 2022-019: U.S. Department of Agriculture Child Nutrition Cluster: School Breakfast Program, 10.553 National School Lunch Program, 10.555 Special Milk Program for Children, 10.556 Summer Food Service Program for Children, 10.559 Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program, 10.582 Reporting Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance and Material Noncompliance The Nevada Department of Agriculture (NDA) did not have internal controls to ensure subaward information was submitted in accordance with the FFATA. Subaward obligations were not reported in the FSRS and therefore not included on the FFATA’s website for public information disclosure. A nonstatistical sample of 6 out of a population of 54 applicable subaward obligations was selected for testing. The quantity and subaward obligation errors were noted as follows: The NDA accepts these findings and will take corrective action to enhance internal controls to ensure FFATA required information is reported annually. Corrective action: The NDA will begin submitting information in accordance with FFATA at the end of the 2023 award period per direction from the federal partner that annual submittals are in compliance with FFATA for the Child Nutrition Cluster programs. The submittal of information will be done as part of the NDA’s closing procedure for these awards. Date of completion: February 28, 2024

Finding 2022-018: U.S. Department of Agriculture Child Nutrition Cluster: School Breakfast Program, 10.553 National School Lunch Program, 10.555 Special Milk Program for Children, 10.556 Summer Food Service Program for Children, 10.559 Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program, 10.582 Reporting Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance The Nevada Department of Agriculture (NDA) did not have adequate internal controls to ensure accurate information was reported to the federal awarding agency. Inaccurate information was reported to FNS. A nonstatistical sample of seven out of a population of 36 reports was selected for testing. The October 2021 FNS-10 report includes annual information (rather than monthly). Line 12b – Membership (Enrollment) of Public Schools was reported as 13. The actual enrollment supported by the underlying documentation of public schools was 22. The NDA accepts these findings and will take corrective action to enhance internal controls to ensure amounts reported to FNS are correct. Corrective action: The NDA has new staff completing data entry and certification of these reports in the federal system that have been extensively trained on required federal reporting. NDA will ensure that additional checks and balances are put in place to review the FNS-10 reports to ensure they match up with appropriate data collected. Date of completion: June 30, 2024

2.) Finding 2020-002 Report Submission Delay a. Program Information: 17.270 Reentry Employment Opportunities b. Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR 200.329, non-Federal entities must submit quarterly financial reports at the interval required by the Federal awarding agency or pass-through entity no later than the specified due date. If a justified request is submitted by a non-Federal entity, the Federal agency may extend the due date for any quarterly financial report. c. Condition: During our audit, we identified one quarterly financial report that was submitted to the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) after the stated due date. Response: Explanation: This delay was due to an unawareness of process limitations regarding the user application process for the Payment Management System (PMS), which is required for any new Finance Director. A formal application and access request form needs to be submitted along with documentation to support the request for access (including proof of identity, proof of employment, and role confirmation). These conditions, along with the 24-72 hour processing time required to get a user application approved by the PMS providers, led to our one-day-late submission of the required quarterly financial report. Corrective Action: We have established a more proactive approach to managing reporting requirements and a protocol for timely submissions of reports. This includes: - Mandatory PMS application processing as part of the early onboarding process for any new Finance Director. - Early preparation of reports, scheduling reviews a month ahead of the submission deadline. - Direct communication lines with the contract administrators and program directors. - Standard procedures identified to request extensions in case of anticipated delays, specific to each contracting agency. Future Measures: Regular training session for our team are planned to help staff stay informed about reporting requirements, procedures, and deadlines.

Finding 2022-002: Eligibility, Reporting and Special Test and Provision Repeat Finding of Portions of 2021-002 Federal Program: Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers Federal Agency: Department of Housing and Urban Development Pass-Through Entity: N/A Assistance Listing Number: 14.871 Federal Award Numb...
Finding 2022-002: Eligibility, Reporting and Special Test and Provision Repeat Finding of Portions of 2021-002 Federal Program: Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers Federal Agency: Department of Housing and Urban Development Pass-Through Entity: N/A Assistance Listing Number: 14.871 Federal Award Numbers: N/A Criteria: Per 24 CFR section 982.516, the Housing Authority must conduct a reexamination of family income and composition at least annually. Third-party verification of family income, value of assets, expenses deducted from income, and other factors that affect adjusted income must be obtained and documented. The Housing Authority must determine income eligibility and calculate the tenant's rent payment using the documentation from third-party verification in accordance with 24 CFR part 5 subpart F. The Housing Authority is also required to submit HUD-50058, Family Report, for each examination per 24 CFR part 908. The amount paid for housing assistance payments (HAP) must correspond to HUD-50058. Condition/Context: No documentation of family income, composition, third-party verification, or HUD‑50058 were provided for two of the twenty five tenants selected for testing for the required reexamination during the fiscal year. Our sample was not statistically valid. Questioned Costs: Housing assistance payments for the tenants noted above is not determinable. Cause: The lack of supporting documentation may be related to the Housing Authority changing voucher program administrators during fiscal year 2020. While the current administrator has access to tenant files, the eligibility determinations done in fiscal 2020 were done by a previous contractor. Also due to the Housing Authority falling behind on obtaining audits, the documents being requested by auditors are several years old. Effect: The Housing Authority may be making inaccurate or ineligible HAP payments on behalf of tenants. Recommendation: The Housing Authority should ensure their vendors properly maintain documentation regarding eligibility determinations. Views of Responsible Officials: WBHA is concerned that the current contract administrator for the HCV Program has failed to comply with providing the requested documentation. We are engaging with our current HCV Contract Administrator (Allegiant Property Management, LLC) on expectations for compliance currently and in the future. WBHA is also exploring other contract administrators or possibly opting out of the HCV Program altogether and working with WHEDA to administer WBHA’s HCV Program vouchers.

Management agrees that due to turnover in staff during 2022 and 2023, there were gaps in communication leading to the cost allocation formulas and leadsheet account reconciliations not being updated on a continuing basis as reimbursement requests were being to the California Department of Social Services. Management believes that all key accounting positions have since been filled by qualified personnel. A formal close process and reconciliation of all balance sheet accounts and indirect cost allocations each month will ensure reimbursement requests are complete and accurate. Process documentation is also being prepared to help personnel in the accounting department follow proper control procedures. Action: Develop and document process for drawdown calculation and year end reconciliation to accounting records. Due Date: 3/1/23 Staff: Don Reynolds, contracted CFO

Preparation of Financial Statements and Schedules of Expenditures of Federal and State Awards Condition: Village staff does not prepare the financial statements and schedules of federal and state awards. The Village has designated an individual responsible for reviewing and accepting the financial statements and schedules of federal and state awards. Criteria: Internal controls over preparation of the financial statements and schedules of federal and state awards, should be in place to provide reasonable assurance that a misstatement would be prevented or detected. Cause: The Village does not prepare the financial statements and full schedules of federal and state awards. Effect: Because management relies on the auditor to assist with the preparation of the financial statements and schedules of federal and state awards, the Village’s system of internal control may not prevent, detect, or correct misstatements in the financial statements and schedules of federal and state awards. Recommendation: The auditors will work with the Village to make personnel more knowledgeable about its responsibility for the financial statements and schedules of federal and state awards. Response: The auditors prepare the financial statements and schedules of federal and state awards, but we review and accept prior to issuance. We prepare financial reports that are reviewed by the Village Board monthly. Any concerns or questions are addressed throughout the year.

Criteria: The Wyoming Department of Education (WDE) requires that school districts report student-level information to WDE using WDE684. Student-level information includes data on the graduation rates for all public high schools in the District using the four-year adjusted cohort rate. The District is required to maintain appropriate written documentation to support the removal of a student from the regulatory adjusted cohort. The WDE684 requires information relating to exit codes, to provide information for WDE to calculate graduation rates. The District uses a multi-purpose educational software, PowerSchool, for the purposes of tracking student data, individually or in aggregate. The District uses PowerSchool when creating reports that contain district-wide data, such as enrollment, which is reported to WDE. WSRP noted that if an instance arises that requires a student to be removed from District enrollment, an exit code must be submitted in PowerSchool to provide the reason for the student removal. Exit codes are then submitted as part of the WDE684 submission to WDE which is then used to calculate the District's graduation rate. Finding: WSRP noted one instance out of thirteen selections where student sampled who was removed from enrollment in the Albany County School District did not have sufficient appropriate documentation to the support the exit code reported on form WDE684. Improper exit codes were included within PowerSchool to report data to WDE on the WDE684 submission. Action Plan: District Administration will implement an approval control in the process of submitting an exit code for a student in PowerSchool to ensure the exit code properly reflects the circumstances surrounding the student's situation. Further, District Administration will hold individual schools and related site administrators accountable for obtaining appropriate written documentation confirming that students who transfer out of the District are enrolled in another school or in an education program that culminates in the award of a regular high school diploma and that all documentation related to the transfer is kept in the student’s file.

Finding 2022-001 Finding: CACFP requires that non-Federal entities receiving Federal Awards establish and maintain internal control designed to reasonably ensure compliance with Federal Statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the Federal award. The Club was unable to replicate exact payroll expenses that were reported to the state monthly for the program. This is due to a lack of payroll documentation retained monthly. This documentation took time to replicate during the audit. No fraud is suspected related to payroll reporting issues for the program. Response: Adjustments were made to the payroll process to retain all supporting documentation and to replicate any prior period paperwork. The Club switched to a new payroll processor which has enabled improved payroll reporting.
