Corrective Action: (SSS): SSS will verify student?s low-income levels for those with a FAFSA on file by having the University?s Financial Aid Department confirm that the student?s income is low-level per the Student Aid Report and FAFSA University?s Financial Aid Department confirm that the student?s income is low-level per the Student Aid Report and FAFSA. The EFC that is listed at $0 is information that is derived from the institution?s Financial Aid Department that is uploaded into Banner once the department verifies the information which comes from the FAFSA and parent/student taxes. (TS): Students in question were offered allowable activities (e.g., tutoring, career/college exploration) by TS program staff. However, these eight students elected to forgo involvement in permissible activities. During the audited period, the former TS program director retired and a new program director was hired. There was no overlap between the former and new program director. The TRIO Tracking Specialist reviewed, signed, and initialed documents in the absence of the TS Director. The applications audited show evidence of the initials of the TRIO Tracking Specialist which was intended to provide evidence of internal program control. Timeline of Corrective Action: 1. The above processes will be put in place by December 31, 2022. 2. A review of related TRIO grant processes and eligibility requirements for students currently involved in the programs will be conducted by June 30, 2023. 3. In addition to the above steps, the Roswell campus is in the process of reviewing the job description for a grants director to oversee federal grants. This position would include oversight of compliance with federal rules, regulations, guidelines, and campus policies. The ENMU-Roswell Campus HR office reviewed the grants director job description and started the process of posting this position on October 24, 2022. It is anticipated this position will be filled by January 31, 2023. 4. Additional compliance discussion sessions and grant requirement reviews for the involved TRIO grant program directors will take place in November 2022 with the campus senior leadership.

Corrective Action Plan For the Year Ended June 30, 2022 Finding: 2022-001 Jessica Murphy, Team Leader, Special Investigations Significant Deficiency, nonmaterial noncompliance Special Tests and Provisions (Enterprise Program Integrity) Per the North Carolina DSS Crosscutting Requirements compliance supplement, counties must acquire case documentation to substantiate the claim entry into the NC FAST Enterprise Program Integrity (?EPI?) system, including the budget and budget calculation sheets used to compute the amount of the overpayment. In one stance of a Food and Nutrition Services claim entered in EPI, there was not adequate case documentation to substantiate the claim and the budget calculated during the initial investigation in the claims file did not agree to the amount that was entered in EPI to be collected on by the county. This claim has since been reviewed, the budget was corrected and the amount in the EPI system, as well as the casefile, was updated. In order to prevent subsequent instances of this issue occurring, DSS Program Integrity staff will implement the following internal control measures effective 1/1/2023: ? Review and evaluate current DSS-1682 Report of Erroneous Issuance form for errors and miscalculations. In reviewing the case in which the error occurred, it was discovered that the DSS-1682 had a formula error in which the amounts did not total correctly on the spreadsheet. Therefore, the incorrect overpayment amount was entered into the EPI system. The DSS-1682 will be reviewed and updated to show the correct formula calculations and the previously-used incorrect form will be removed from usage by staff by 12/31/22. ? Additional second-party and third-party reviewing processes for overpayment claims. In the identified case finding, a second-party review was completed, as are all overpayment claims per Food and Nutrition Services policy, however this instance revealed that additional review, in the form of a third-party can provide a reduced risk-factor as the error could have been discovered by the additional review. Effective 1/1/23, all overpayment claims must be submitted for second-party review and third-party review prior to submission into the NC FAST EPI system. ? Revised case review tools. There is currently not a detailed, itemized review form that is used for Program Integrity. The current tool does have specifications for the evaluation of the overpayment calculation; however, it does not have additional indicators to allow for consistency in reviewing the specified overpayment months, program integrity budgets, financial transactions, and correct allotment amounts. In observation of this, it has been determined that a new case record review tool will be created and implemented effective 1/1/23. The proposed effect of this form will be that additional review and inquiry will be completed by the second party reviewer and the third-party reviewer and there will be increased compliance in regards to overpayment claim calculation. The planned controls have the projected effect of reducing the risk of overpayment calculation errors, incorrect budgeting, and invalid claim amounts entered into the NC FAST EPI system. Proposed completion: All measures effective 1/1/23 and ongoing.

The preparation of personnel activity reports (PARs) or periodic certifications or the equivalent is the most effective way to comply with this requirement. During the current year, the District?s PARs for two employees, did not accurately reflect what was charged to the grants in order to comply with Subpart I, 2 CFR ?200.430. Planned Corrective Action: Since the grant funding periods for each of these grants are still open, the District has contacted NYSED and has been advised to submit an amended budget for these additional costs charged, as they are allowable. In addition, the District will review its internal procedure documentation for payroll costs charged to the grants to ensure that the actual costs submitted for reimbursement are supported by the PARs for each employee.

View of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan ? Although the Organization has a secondary review process and a checklist in place to assure that clients are eligible and all required documentation is in place prior to authorizing payment assistance, the review processes will be corrected and improved in the following way: 1. Supervisor(s) will verify on the checklist that they have opened, viewed, and scrutinized all uploaded verifications to assure that the documentation meets funding source criteria and complies with eligibility standards set by the funding source, not simply note the presence of an uploaded document or concur that the client is eligible. 2. Another review of each file will be completed prior to any financial assistance payments being processed by the Associate Director for Housing. The purpose of this tertiary review is to monitor compliance with the updated checklist and approval process. Any errors will be noted and discussed with both the case manager and the supervisor. A log of the approvals and denials will be maintained and used to plan future training to ensure compliance. 3. When proof of eligibility is uploaded in a third-party system (such as the MSHDA CERA portal), OLHSA will retain the documentation in its local databases as well and a supervisor be required to indicate on the checklist that this step has been completed.

Significant Deficiency in Internal Controls over Reporting, and Compliance Finding: Grant and Contract Management; Reporting Recommendations: ? It?s recommended implementation of a documented tracking system for reports according to the deadlines provided by the funding entity. In the event an extension is necessary, that extension should be requested prior to the due date and should be documented. Multiple people should be involved in the reporting process, so that reports can still be filed timely in the event of unexpected absences or turnover in staff. Actions Taken: ? The agency has implemented a procedure within the finance department that will ensure reporting is submitted timely and accurately. A new reporting spreadsheet has been developed to improve effectiveness of this process and a deadline tracking system is now being utilized. If there are any questions regarding this plan, please call Kendrick Heinlein at 616.456.5664. Sincerely, Kendrick Heinlein Chief Executive Officer Area Agency on Aging of Western Michigan
