The Department of Human Services, Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services (DMHAS) agrees that for fiscal year 2024 it did not complete Federal Funding Accountability & Transparency Act (FFATA) uploads timely. DMHAS maintains written FFATA policies and procedures, and it is compliant with its SSA SFY 2023 Corrective Action Plan (CAP) which included a January 1, 2025 implementation date. However, DMHAS was unable to comply timely with the FFATA reporting requirements due to competing reporting requirements, in conjunction with the volume of data and effort required. In addition to the significant progress DMHAS reported in the FY 2023 CAP update provided below, DMHAS accomplished the following: On October 21, 2024, DMHAS on boarded a full-time FFATA Analyst dedicated to FFATA data collection and uploads. On October 23 and October 29, 2024, DMHAS conducted training for the FFATA analyst. On or about January 29, 2025 and February 3, 2025, in an effort to demonstrate its proficiency and show its good faith efforts to comply, DMHAS uploaded all SUPTRS SFY23 and SFY24 Test Contracts (FAIN ending 5822) for the SSA SFY 2024. On or about February 3, 2025 and February 19, 2025, in an effort to demonstrate its proficiency and show its good faith efforts to comply, DMHAS uploaded all SOR SFY23 and SFY24 (FAIN ending 5743) Test Contracts for the SSA SFY24. Thereafter, DMHAS completed the following uploads: • February 27, 2025 – SOR FAIN ending 5743 – remaining contracts (outside of the SSA24 Test group) up to the FSRS ceiling (which limits data entry to forty (40) pages and UEIs. • March 4, 2025 – SUPTRS FAIN ending 7054 – all contracts uploaded. • March 6, 2025 – SOR FAIN ending 7774 – all contracts (into FSRS prior to migration) • March 6, 2025 – SUPTRS FAIN ending 5822 - remaining contracts (outside of the SSA24 Test group) up to the FSRS ceiling (which limits data entry to forty (40) pages and UEIs. On January 22, 2025, the DMHAS Compliance Quality Assurance Specialist who helps monitor FFATA compliance completed the federal SAM.gov training. On March 5, 2025, the DMHAS FFATA Analyst completed the federal SAM.gov training. DMHAS remains committed to FFATA compliance, is prioritizing FFATA reporting, and is making a good faith effort to comply. However, DMHAS notes various federal issues outside of the State’s control that are causing delays and increasing administrative burden. More specifically, uploads that predated the conversion from FSRS to Sam.gov were limited by a system error so DMHAS was precluded from entering all contracts/UEIs. In addition, FAINs are missing from SAM.gov, thus precluding the submission of the corresponding uploads. DMHAS is documenting the upload limitations and missing FAINs, along with its continued efforts to overcome the various obstacles outside of its control.

DMHAS acknowledges that the FAIN was omitted in a single notice of sub recipient award that predates the implementation date of its FY 2023 Corrective Action Plan (CAP). The award at issue relates to a “special County” add-on contract (one (1) of a total of nineteen (19)) that is tracked manually and in the DMHAS Contract Information Management System (CIMS) on which it currently relies to relay the data components required by 2 CFR 200.332. The single omission of the FAIN was due to a clerical error, whereby CIMS was not updated consistent with the manual record of the 2024 County contract renewal. DMHAS acknowledged in its FY 2023 CAP that CIMS was being replaced with SAGE in order to automate sub recipient notices, reduce administrative burden and decrease clerical errors that result from manual data entry. DMHAS notes that the original 2025 SAGE go-live date has been delayed and moved to Summer 2026. Therefore, DMHAS made improvements to CIMS (that is available to Providers). In addition to identifying the federal funding source in the program column and in the notes, CIMS now includes a federal drop down box that links the federal NOAs to the subrecipient agreement. DMHAS is compliant with its FY 2023 CAP which included a July 1, 2024 implementation date. Beginning July 1, 2024, DMHAS starting using a new Subaward template that includes the requisite data elements. DMHAS created a contract policy update and completed template trainings in-person and remotely. The DMHAS Compliance Unit audited the use of the new template to ensure Subaward include the requisite data elements.

The Department of Human Services’ Division of Family Development (DHS/DFD) acknowledges the audit finding that 3 of the 40 sampled providers had not been inspected as required by program policy. DHS/DFD contracts with the Department of Children and Families’ Office of Licensing (“OOL”) as the regulatory authority to monitor and inspect licensed centers and family child care providers. In response to this finding, OOL has implemented internal measures to ensure that monitoring occurs on an annual basis. These measure include the use of the New Jersey Child Care Information System (NJCCIS). A subsequent inspection of licensed child care centers was conducted on September 13, 2024. Regarding the two other family child care providers, the Child Care Resource and Referral (“CCR&R”) works in conjunction with OOL to track health and safety inspections. However, CCR&R did not monitor the two family child care providers in 2023. Since then, monitoring has been carried out in 2024 which included a review of the annual training requirements for these providers. To enhance compliance with inspections, CCR&R has acquired updated software to improve its monitoring capabilities. Copies of the 2024 inspection reports can be provided upon request. The DFD’s Office of Child Care will develop internal controls and procedures to ensure that inspections are performed as required by program policy.

The New Jersey Department of Labor and Workforce Development (DLWD) continues to monitor workloads for both first payment and non-monetary time lapse measurements. Identity verification remains an issue with a segment of the claim population, and delays with claimants completing their ID verification has a direct bearing on first payment and non-monetary time lapse. DLWD will continue to work on improving communications around the importance of timely verifying ID and provide assistance to claimants that may be struggling with this process. DLWD has been working with USDOL to expand identity verification options and expects the new process to be in full production by June 30, 2025. It will allow claimants to report to any USPS Post Office for an in-person ID verification. This additional in-person option to complete ID verification provides greater flexibility for claimants to complete this requirement, especially those that struggle with the digital verification process that DLWD currently uses. We expect the new process to have a positive impact on time lapse scores and overall improvement for these metrics. Most recent time lapse figures showed that for the period November 2024 through February 2025, combined non-monetary time lapse exceeded the 80% ALP for each month.

The system controls in place for FPUC continues to require that an underlying UI/PUA payment must first be issued before any FPUC payment could be generated. Similar controls were in place for any PUA payments, where claimants have to choose a valid pandemic related reason for being unemployed before any PUA payment could be issued. These controls, before any CARES Act related payment could be issued, were in place for the duration of the CARES Act program. No PUA or FPUC payment should be issued without these requirements being met. We will continue to enforce these controls.
