Finding 2025-001 – Housing Choice Voucher Tenant Files – Eligibility – Rent Calculations Noncompliance & Significant Deficiency Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Cluster – ALNs 14.871 and 14.879 Corrective Action Plan: Finding: Somerville Housing Authority (SHA) received the authority’s Single Audit for the year ended March 31, 2025, indicating that SHA received a finding of Significant Deficiencies. Auditors identified four instances of miscalculated income, two instances of missing or improper income verification, two instances of missing or improper deduction verification, and six instances in which the EIV report was not maintained in the tenant file. Extrapolation of errors to the population found the potential misstatement to be immaterial to program HAP expense. Auditors note that all income-related discrepancies were found in files selected from a HAP register dated earlier in the fiscal year, indicating improvements in compliance as the year progressed. Auditors recommend that SHA should continue to monitor areas and strengthen controls pertaining to income verification, calculation, and documentation retention to promote continued improvement and prevent recurrence of similar issues PHA Response: The SHA has implemented a corrective action plan to address noted deficiencies. The SHA has had significant staffing turnover in the last year. While vacant positions were filled, the SHA contracted with Nan McKay Associates (NMA) to complete all Annual Recertifications. NMA assigned four full-time staff to complete all recertifications and assigned one additional full-time staff person to conduct a monthly Qualify Control Review of all recertifications completed by NMA. During NMA’s contract, SHA focused on hiring and training new staff. SHA has hired a new Director of Leased Housing, a new Leased Housing Supervisor, three Leasing Coordinators, and a Tenant Selector. The Director and Supervisor have been providing one-on-one training and support. New staff have also been enrolled in training opportunities provided by outside vendors such as the Nan McKay Rent Calculation Class. As of 7/31/2024, SHA has resumed program management from NMA. SHA has also increased the agency’s internal quality control audits. The Director of Leased Housing has increased monthly SEMAP review from 40 to 50 files. Monthly feedback is provided to staffers individually and systemic issues are addressed to the entire department. The Supervisor also conducts a monthly review of the Income Verification Tool, following up with staffers to assist them in addressing discrepancies with their client’s records. Additionally, SHA has fully implemented an electronic file storage system, utilizing PHA Web’s online system to better organize, track, and maintain client files. Since implementation of the corrective action plan, 99% of reviewed files were found to have appropriate Payment Standards, 97% have appropriate third party documentation, and 94% have appropriate adjusted income. 97% were found to have appropriate Utility Allowances. Corrective action has been taken on all errors, and guidance has been provided to staff. SHA will continue conducting file audits, as well as following up with staff. PHA Goal: Based on the SHA’s monthly quality control sample of tenant files: (A) The SHA obtains third party verification of reported family annual income, the value of assets totaling more than $5,000, expenses related to deductions from annual income, and other factors that affect the determination of adjusted income, and uses the verified information in determining adjusted income, and/or documents tenant files to show why third party verification was not available; (B) The SHA properly attributes and calculates allowances for any medical, child care, and/or disability assistance expenses; and (C) The SHA uses the appropriate utility allowances to determine gross rent for the unit leased, (D) The SHA applies the appropriate payment standard in accordance with 24 CFR 982.505. PHA Strategies: Target Completion Date: 1) The SHA will review its current quality control tracking system to record the results of random sampling of files as required in 985.2. The SHA will revise this system on an ongoing basis if necessary. 3/31/2026 2) Confirm that 90% or more files sampled contain proper third party written verification (or equivalent) of income and assets, proper calculation of appropriate deductions and allowances and that appropriate utility allowance were used in the calculation of tenant rent. 3/31/2026 Persons Responsible: Matt Lincoln, Director of Leased Housing David Hospedales, Leased Housing Supervisor

Auditors identified two files missing proper income verification, and seven files missing the EIV report. Extrapolation of errors to the population found the potential misstatement to be immaterial to program HAP expense. Auditors note that all income-related discrepancies were found in files selected from a HAP register dated earlier in the fiscal year, indicating improvements in compliance as the year progressed. Auditors recommend that SHA should enhance its quality control procedures to ensure compliance with HUD income verification regulations and EIV review requirements. Regular internal reviews and staff training should be conducted t oaddress these compliance issues effectively. PHA Response: The SHA has implemented a corrective action plan to address noted deficiencies. The SHA has had significant staffing turnover in the last year. While vacant positions were filled, the SHA contracted with Nan McKay Associates (NMA) to complete all Annual Recertifications.

Finding 2025-002 – Low Rent Public Housing Tenant Files – Eligibility – Rent Calculations Noncompliance & Significant Deficiency Low Rent Public Housing – ALN 14.850 Condition & Cause: Our review of thirty (30) Low Rent Public Housing tenant files identified noncompliance in twelve (12) files within one or more categories. Of these, eight (8) files, or roughly 26%, were for the determination of adjusted annual income. Specifically, we noted the following: • Three (3) files were missing proper income verification • Three (3) files included income miscalculations • Two (2) files lacked required documentation to support deductions • Five (5) units did not have evidence of an annual inspection on file Based on extrapolation of these errors to the population, we identified likely questioned costs totaling $134,699, representing approximately 3.25% of total dwelling rental income. We also observed that the Public Housing department operated with significant staffing shortages for much of the fiscal year, which likely contributed to these deficiencies. PHA Response: The SHA has reviewed these deficiencies with the responsible staff members. Public housing staff have received internal training on required and acceptable income and deduction verifications and subsequent calculations. A file integrity checklist has been created for housing managers to ensure all required forms, calculations and required support is included and accurate. Further, internal file review procedures will be established in the current fiscal year. File integrity reviews will be performed by the Division Director and SHA is also exploring the value of peer reviews between housing managers and support staff. Internal inspection processes have also been improved. SHA has created a new Director of Operations position that is responsible for oversight and scheduling of inspections. This will provide more direct oversight of unit inspections and ensure that all annual and other inspections are performed timely and resulting reports are provided to the housing manager for the resident file.

SECTION III - FEDERAL AWARD FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS 2025-001 – SPECIAL TESTS AND PROVISIONS: PAYMENT STANDARDS Other Matter/Significant Deficiency U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development CFDA #: 14.871 / 14.879 – Housing Voucher Cluster Issue Identified: It was brought to the attention of the North Providence Housing Authority (NPHA) in May 2025 that a procedural error occurred regarding the implementation of decreased payment standards for existing subsidized participants. The error involved applying the decreased payment standards immediately (at most recent annual reexamination), rather than adhering to the required 12-month written notice period for existing participants. The correct procedure, as per HUD policy, requires applying the decreased payment standards only at the participant's second annual review of income following the effective date of the decrease. Corrective Action: The NPHA took the following immediate and diligent steps to rectify this oversight: 1. Identification of Affected Participants: A comprehensive review was conducted to accurately identify all families whose subsidies were incorrectly calculated due to the premature application of the decreased payment standards. 2. Recalculation and Adjustment: For all affected participants, the housing assistance payment (HAP) was retroactively recalculated using the higher, correct payment standard that should have remained in effect during the notice period. 3. Issuance of Refunds: The difference between the higher, correct HAP, and the lower, incorrect HAP was calculated. This amount was then refunded to compensate participants for any increased tenant rent they may have paid as a result of the error. Status of Correction: The NPHA confirms that the corrective action is complete. • As of Friday, September 26, 2025, all identified affected participants have been fully compensated and made whole. • The distribution of all calculated refunds related to the incorrect application of the 2024/2025 payment standards is finalized. Preventative Measures: To prevent recurrence, the NPHA has implemented updated policies and procedures to ensure strict compliance with HUD regulations regarding changes to payment standards: • The NPHA staff is now fully aware of the specific HUD policy requiring a 12-month written notice for existing participants before a decreased payment standard is applied. • New internal controls and verification steps have been established to ensure that future decreased payment standards are applied only at the second annual income review for existing participants, following the issuance of the 12-month notice. Planned Implementation Date of Corrective Action: July 1, 2025. Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Marilee Arsenault, Stephnie Dos Reis, and Eileen Reyes

During fiscal year 2025, the Foundation identified a control failure with their established FFATA reporting control. After thorough review of active subaward agreements, the Foundation identified one contract that was not reported timely. Due to the grant's termination date of April 2, 2025, the Foundation was not able to file the report through SAM.gov. However, the Foundation promptly reached out to the National Endowment for Humanities (NEH) for assistance with filing. At this time, the Foundation has not received a response from NEH on next steps. The Foundation has since enhanced its control to include a three-way reconciliation using system generated reports to validate completeness of the Foundation’s monthly list of executed subaward agreements prior to reporting deadline. In addition to the reconciliation, the Foundation has implemented a FFATA process checklist which captures the process steps, applicable contract execution date(s), report submission date(s) and sign off/approval of the monthly process. A secondary review and approval of the process have been included in the updated control. The enhanced control was implemented for the September 2025 FFATA reporting.

Criteria: 2 CFR 200.303(a) states that the Center is required to establish and maintain effective internal control over the federal award that provides reasonable assurance that the non-federal entity is managing the federal award in compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of the federal award.

The sample size was determined based upon the guidelines provided by the AICPA which is not a statistically valid sample. Cause: The Center misunderstood that the performance reports were applicable during the revolving stage. Effect: Not reporting performance reports may impact the federal agency’s ability to assess the effectiveness of the federal program. Corrective Action Plan: All EDA reporting will be completed and submitted to ensure the Center is up to date on required filings. In addition, the Center will work with the EDA to understand when reporting requirements will change during the revolving process.

Upon consultation with the Office of the Provost and the appropriate Deans of the affected Colleges, the program length for the Master’s programs at the University was updated to two (2), for those programs between 30 and 36 credit hours in length; and three (3) academic years, for those whose minimum credit hours exceeds 36 credit hours, which will meet a reasonable progression to such degree. The Office of Registrar updated all such programs to reflect the decision for the University in November 2024. The students noted in the 2025-001 finding ceased to be active prior to the updated process’ implementation and were excluded from the reporting population. All activity contained in the sample selection for changes after the implementation date were handled in accordance with the regulations. One of those students reenrolled and the Program Length was updated to correctly reflect the student’s new program. The University will continue to monitor this area for any future discrepancies. Responsible Parties: The University has identified the Registrar – Paula Brown along with the Director of the Office of Financial Aid – James Hubener as the responsible parties to ensure continued monitoring of the activity on these types of items to ensure timely and accurate reporting to NSLDS. Estimated Completion Date: November 30, 2024
