Corrective Action Plan for Federal Award Audit Finding 2025-001 Finding Title: Allowable Costs/Cost Principles – Improper expenditure recognition Federal Program: Title II, Part A, Teacher & Principal Training and Recruiting Assistant Listing Number: 84.367A Federal Agency Name: U.S. Department of Education Passed-Through Agency Name: Texas Department of Education Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance Description of Corrective Action The District acknowledges the internal control system did not timely detect the improper recognition of expenditures in the incorrect fiscal period. It is important to emphasize that the expenditures identified were ultimately removed from the current year activity and were excluded from the year-end reimbursement request. The District commits to strengthening its year-end closing procedures and providing comprehensive training to address the noted deficiency in monitoring and review. The following actions will be taken: Mandatory Staff Training on Expenditure Cut-off and Accruals The District will develop and implement mandatory, targeted training for all personnel responsible for processing, recording, reconciling, and reviewing federal grant expenditures, with a specific focus on year-end cut-off procedures and proper expense recognition (accruals versus prepaid expenses). Implementation of Formal Grant Expenditure Cut-off Review Procedure A formalized closing procedure will be implemented for all federal awards, ensuring a mandatory, documented review of expenditures and payables near the fiscal year-end. Persons Responsible Timothy Momanyi, Chief Financial Officer Thania Gonzalez, Assistant Superintendent of Business and Finance Anticipated Completion Date The initial staff training will occur by May 31, 2026. The full implementation of the new procedures, with documented adherence by all responsible staff, will be complete by June 30, 2026, ensuring the new controls are fully operational before the close of the 2025-2026 fiscal year.

Finding: 2025-001 Incomplete Tenant Records - Section 8 HCV Program (ALN 14.871) Condition: 1. For one (I) tenant, income verification was not performed for the current During our review of forty ( 40) tenant files under the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program, we identified multiple instances of missing documentation and compliance lapses: year, and prior year income was rolled forward. The HUD-50058 (Family Report) form was reviewed in the PIC system but was not present in the tenant file. 2. For one (I) tenant, the Approved Lease, HUD-52517 (Request for Tenancy Approval), and HUD-52641 (HAP Contract) forms were not present in the tenant file. Recommendation: We recommend that the Housing Authority strengthen internal controls over tenant file documentation by implementing a standardized checklist to ensure all required forms and records are consistently retained. Staff should receive periodic training on HUD documentation and compliance requirements to reinforce expectations and reduce errors. Management should also conduct routine internal reviews to verify that income verification and lease documentation are properly completed and maintained. These measures will help ensure that tenant eligibility and payment determinations are adequately supported and compliant with federal regulations. Planned Corrective Action: To address these findings, the Housing Authority will implement a standardized checklist for all tenant file changes, ensuring that all required forms and records are consistently retained. The Program Administrator and staff will conduct monthly reviews of completed re-examinations to verify that all necessary documentation is present and properly filed. All paperwork related to annual re­exams, transfers, move-ins, and interims will be scanned into the Lindsey software system within five working days of receipt, prior to physical filing. The Program Administrator will organize monthly training sessions on HCY/S8 program requirements, with participation tracked to ensure all staff attend. Weekly spot checks will be performed to confirm that the checklist is being used appropriately. These actions will be supported by updated training materials, access to the Lindsey software, and dedicated staff time for audits and training. To mitigate risks such as incomplete documentation, missed scanning deadlines, or low training attendance, the Housing Authority will implement pre-audit checklists, set automated reminders for staff, and make training mandatory. Management will monitor the implementation of these corrective actions and conduct follow-up reviews to ensure sustained compliance with HUD regulations.

Root Cause Analysis: The root cause of this finding was a misapplication of the approved indirect cost rate to the appropriate Modified Total Direct Cost (MTDC) base in connection with drawdown calculations. Although The EPI Center had an approved indirect cost rate and related policy in place, the operational procedures and system configurations necessary to consistently apply the methodology were still being refined and operationalized. The EPI Center notes that a formal, written Indirect Cost Rate Policy consistent with Uniform Guidance (2 CFR Part 200) was in place at the time of award. However, during the initial year of administering a federal award as fiscal agent, the procedures outlined in the policy were not fully operationalized. This resulted in a misapplication of the approved indirect cost rate. The overdraw resulted from applying the indirect cost rate to budgeted, rather than actual, direct expenditures. Management has since recalculated allowable indirect costs based on actual expenditures and has implemented enhanced controls to ensure accurate application of the MTDC base and compliance with federal requirements going forward. Response, with details: ☒Corrective Action Plan ☐Clarification Management acknowledges the misapplication of the approved indirect cost rate and has taken immediate steps to correct the calculation and ensure full alignment with federal requirements. Specifically, The EPI Center has recalculated indirect costs based on allowable expenditures within the Modified Total Direct Cost (MTDC) base and is actively engaging with the U.S. Department of Education to determine the appropriate resolution of the overdrawn amount. Management confirms that all underlying expenditures charged to the program were allowable, allocable, and supported by appropriate documentation, and no unallowable costs were identified. Corrective Actions Management has implemented the following corrective actions to address the issue and strengthen internal controls: 1. Training and Capacity Building (Completed - April 2026) Finance staff and senior leadership have completed targeted training on the application of indirect cost requirements under Uniform Guidance to reinforce compliance expectations. 2. Recalculation and Resolution of Overdraw (Implementation Initiated) The EPI Center has recalculated allowable indirect costs by applying the restricted 8 percent indirect cost rate for Teacher and School Leader Incentive Program (TSL) grants to actual expenditures incurred during the reporting period. The program officer has been informed of the miscalculation and resulting overdraw. The EPI Center will follow all applicable agency protocols upon receiving formal guidance from the U.S. Department of Education. Management is actively coordinating with the U.S. Department of Education to resolve the calculated overdraw and will comply with all agency guidance, including repayment of any amounts determined to be unallowable. Controls are now in place to ensure that all future drawdowns are calculated based on the approved indirect cost rate applied to the MTDC base and are subject to documented review prior to submission. 3. Standardized Indirect Cost Calculation Worksheets (Completed - April 2026) A standardized indirect cost calculation worksheet will be required and reviewed prior to approval of all drawdown requests. 4. Independent Oversight (Completed – June 2025) The EPI Center has engaged a third-party controller who will review and independently validate indirect cost calculations prior to submission, providing an added layer of oversight and control.

VIEWS OF RESPONSIBLE OFFICIALS We are resolving these deficiencies by leveraging the new Government ERP system, scheduled for launch in July 2026. This platform will provide the essential functionality to properly configure our Chart of Accounts, ensuring that all TANF and PTTA administrative expenditures are automatically segregated by federal award and Assistance Listing Number (ALN). This system will be the foundation for accurate, traceable, and reconcilable financial reporting, supported by robust internal controls and multi-level supervisory oversight. Action Steps: 1. ERP Chart of Accounts Configuration – Configure the ERP system with a granular Chart of Accounts that strictly segregates TANF and PTTA administrative expenditures, ensuring every transaction is coded to the correct federal grant and ALN. 2. Automated Reporting Workflow – Utilize the ERP's financial reporting modules to generate ACF-196TR reports directly from the General Ledger, ensuring reported expenditures are 100% traceable to source transactions. 3. Digital Reconciliation Workpaper – Require the ERP to generate an automated "Reconciliation Package" for every ACF-196TR submission, which links reported line items directly to General Ledger accounts, eliminating discrepancies. 4. Staff Training & ERP Stabilization – Execute comprehensive training for all finance staff on the new ERP accounting structure, reconciliation modules, and federal reporting requirements, ensuring the system is utilized for full audit compliance.

VIEWS OF RESPONSIBLE OFFICIALS The Department of the Family and PR-DDS acknowledge the audit finding regarding the differences identified between the balances reported on Form SSA-4513, the PRIFAS accounting records, and the supporting documentation for unliquidated obligations. To address this issue, the following corrective actions will be implemented: 1. Monthly meetings will be held between the Department of the Family’s Finance staff and PR-DDS administrative and fiscal personnel to review and monitor all outstanding obligations and any differences identified between the PRIFAS records and the reports prepared for the Social Security Administration (SSA). 2. A formal monthly reconciliation will be performed between the balances reported on Form SSA-4513 and the financial records maintained in PRIFAS. Any discrepancies identified will be analyzed, documented, and supported with appropriate evidence. 3. Differences between the PRIFAS records and valid obligations that are not reflected in the system will be explained and documented in the comments section of Form SSA-4513, as applicable. 4. The review process for unliquidated obligations will be strengthened through periodic evaluations to identify obligations that should be modified, liquidated, or canceled in accordance with SSA requirements. 5. Written internal procedures will be developed for the preparation, review, and approval of Form SSA-4513, including the retention of supporting documentation necessary to substantiate the reported balances. Management further notes that certain obligations related to Medical Evidence of Record (MER) and Applicant Travel (AT) are authorized and monitored by PR-DDS before the related disbursements occur. These obligations are not recorded in the PRIFAS accounting system until payment is processed by the Special Payments Office (OPE). As a result, temporary differences may exist between the balances reflected in PRIFAS and the unliquidated obligations reported on Form SSA-4513. To address this situation, PR-DDS and the Department of the Family’s Finance Office have established a monthly reconciliation process to identify, document, and explain all temporary differences between PRIFAS records and the obligations maintained by PR-DDS. In addition, any significant differences will be properly disclosed and explained in the comments section of Form SSA-4513 and supported by the appropriate documentation. IMPLEMENTATION DATE The monthly meetings and formal reconciliation process began during Fiscal Year 2026 and will continue an ongoing basis.

VIEWS OF RESPONSIBLE OFFICIALS ADFAN concurs with the finding. The agency acknowledges the requirement to maintain written procedures in accordance with 2 CFR §200.302, including procedures related to cash management and the determination of allowable costs under federal awards. The condition identified was impacted by limited staffing resources within the Finance Area, which affected the timely completion and formalization of the required written procedures. In addition, the Finance Procedures Manual is currently under review and revision to ensure compliance with Uniform Guidance requirements and to strengthen internal controls over federal programs. As corrective action, ADFAN is completing the update and formalization of the Finance Procedures Manual, which will incorporate the written procedures required by Uniform Guidance. Upon completion, the revised manual will be formally approved, communicated to relevant personnel, and implemented across the agency. Management will also continue assessing staffing needs and resource allocation within the Finance Area to support the ongoing maintenance and monitoring of financial policies and procedures.
