Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions: The documentation supporting program check requests is maintained by the program staff in the client files. When requesting a disbursement for a client, the case manager prepares a check request after following the process prescribed by the program and contract for determining an allowable disbursement. The check request is then reviewed and approved by a supervisor who also checks for eligibility and allowability of the disbursement. Only the approved check request is provided to the finance office to create the disbursement to avoid duplication of records. The client files and these records have been reviewed during site visits and previous audits without exception and with no delay in providing requested information. To further improve this process, however, the program has added a new form to be completed for each new client’s rental costs clearly identifying the costs to be paid and the source information for those costs. The supervisor reviewing disbursement requests will also affirmatively indicate on the check request that they have verified this documentation in the client file.

The Authority will work to implement a process to improve tenant file management, ensure complete supporting documentation, and address disbursement variances.

For six out of the sixteen tenants tested, the Authority was unable to provide the tenant file for review.

The Authority did not provide a copy of its Annual Contributions Contract (ACC), which serves as the foundational agreement between the Authority and HUD for the receipt and use of federal funds. 2. The Authority failed to provide a signed MTW Certification of Compliance for the most recent fiscal year, which affirms board approval of the MTW Plan and Report and verifies the Authority's adherence to MTW statutory objectives and HUD program requirements. 3. The Authority did not provide the required supplement to the annual MTW Plan, which outlines planned uses of MTW funds and activities for the fiscal year. 4. The Authority also failed to provide the HUD-issued approval letter for the supplement to the annual MTW Plan, which is necessary to validate HU D's acceptance of the Authority's proposed activities.Planned Corrective Action: Fiscal Year 2024 was a year marked by personnel turnover in key administrative, accounting, and human resources positions.

For the MTW HAP (HCV) sample, the Authority did not properly complete the "Summary Decision on the Unit" section of the HUD Form 52580-A, which documents the final pass or fail outcome of the Housing Quality Standards {HQS) inspection. As a result, it could not be confirmed whether the unit met HQS requirements at the time of assistance. 2. In six out of twenty-three HCV tenant files tested, housing assistance payments did not agree with the amounts reported on HUD Form 50058, and no reconciliations or explanations were provided. 3.

In the MTW Public Housing sample, five out of seventeen tenant files contained discrepancies between tenant receipts or rent register balances and the amounts reported on HUD Form 50058, without adequate explanation or reconciliation. 5.
