We further recommend the Division develop controls and procedures to ensure that all required subawards are reported accurately and timely to FSRS. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Regarding the subaward identified as not timely reported, the Division confirms that the subaward was submitted in SAM.gov on December 9, 2024. In accordance with FFATA reporting requirements, the subaward should have been reported no later than the end of the month following the month in which the subaward was issued. The delay in reporting was the result of administrative oversight. Since the prior finding, the Division has reviewed and strengthened its internal controls related to FFATA reporting to ensure compliance with federal requirements. Updated procedures have been implemented to formally track all subawards subject to FFATA reporting, including documentation of subaward issuance dates, calculation of reporting due dates, and verification of submission in SAM.gov within the required timeframe. In addition, the Division has implemented a secondary review process to monitor FFATA reporting on an ongoing basis. This includes periodic review of subaward activity and confirmation that all required reports have been submitted timely. These enhanced controls are intended to prevent recurrence of late reporting and to ensure full compliance with FFATA requirements going forward.

The Office should provide training of State agency personnel and conduct periodic reviews of written capital project justifications to ensure that they comply with program requirements. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The ARPA team acknowledges that the repeat finding related to capital project justifications resulted from gaps in enforcement and follow-up procedures with state agencies. While guidance was provided, the team did not consistently ensure that complete and compliant capital project justifications were obtained and reviewed prior to reporting. Contributing factors included limited staffing resources also impacted agencies’ ability to provide complete historical information for projects initiated in prior reporting periods. In several cases, agency personnel responsible for original project justifications were no longer available, making it more difficult to obtain sufficient documentation to meet Treasury requirements. However, the ARPA team recognizes that these challenges do not mitigate the responsibility to ensure compliance with reporting requirements. To address this, the ARPA team will implement enhanced controls to ensure compliance with capital project justification requirements. These include requiring complete justifications prior to reporting, use of a standardized template and review checklist, and a formal second-level review process to verify completeness and accuracy. In addition, the team will maintain centralized tracking of all submissions, implement formal escalation procedures for nonresponsive agencies, and provide ongoing training and guidance, including support for new agency personnel. Periodic compliance reviews will also be conducted to ensure continued adherence to program requirements. These actions are designed to strengthen internal controls, improve accountability, and ensure that all reported capital project justifications fully comply with Treasury requirements.

Reference Number: 2025-012 Prior Year Finding: 2024-006 Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Labor State Agency: Department of Labor State Division: Division of Unemployment Insurance Federal Program: Unemployment Insurance, COVID-19 – Unemployment Insurance Assistance Listing Number: 17.225 Award Number and Period: UI372152255A10 (10/1/2021 – 12/31/2024) UI393142355A10 (10/1/2022 – 12/31/2025) 24A55UI000067 (10/1/2023 – 12/31/2026) 25A55UI000116 (1/1/2024 – 12/31/2027) Compliance Requirement: Special Tests and Provisions – Employer Experience Rating Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance, Other Matters Recommendation: The Division should review and enhance procedures and controls to ensure that employer experience rates are properly calculated and applied. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: Disagreement with Finding-New Employer Rate Assignment Action taken in response to finding: We disagree with the finding as we believe the employer’s account effective date and liability status were established in accordance with the applicable state UI laws and regulations. Documentation can be provided to substantiate this determination. Account# 69821 was established in November of 2024 with a liability date of 04/2013 per employer’s application on file, which gave the employer a new employer rate of 2.8. After my discussion with the auditor on 3/19/26, I pulled the folder to further investigate. Based on this review, we conclude that the rate assignment was accurate and compliant, and therefore the finding appears to be based on a misunderstanding of the employer’s account status or the applicable rate criteria. The business already implemented a corrective action plan in 2025 which entailed changing how the calculation is performed. This calculation is now done outside of the Mainframe system in compliance with Title 19 rules with results uploaded into the system after calculation. The UI program successfully provided an auditable population for calendar year 2025 Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Angela Hackett, Administrator Planned completion date for corrective action plan: We have internal controls in place to mitigate the risk of an incorrect rate being assigned to a new employer. This issue was corrected in 2025 when finding was first originally presented.

Reference Number: 2025-010 Prior Year Finding: 2024-004 Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Labor State Department Name: Department of Labor State Division Name: Division of Unemployment Insurance Federal Program: Unemployment Insurance, COVID-19 – Unemployment Insurance Assistance Listing Number: 17.225 Award Number and Year: UI372152255A10 (10/1/2021 – 12/31/2024) UI393142355A10 (10/1/2022 – 12/31/2025) 24A55UI000067 (10/1/2023 – 12/31/2026) 25A55UI000116 (1/1/2024 – 12/31/2027) Compliance Requirement: Eligibility Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance, Other Matters Recommendation: The Division should review and enhance procedures and controls to ensure that claimant eligibility is properly determined, that documentation supporting claimant eligibility is retained, and that documentation is readily available for audit. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: For 3 of 60 claimants, the Division was unable to provide documentation that the claimant provided weekly updates. These cases (sample 2,7 and 36) relate to claimant weekly certifications and their responses to required eligibility questions for the applicable benefit weeks. Due to existing mainframe system limitations, the Division does not have the ability to directly view all claimant responses within the system interface. In preparation for the CLA review, Application Support generated a comprehensive report capturing weekly certification responses for all sampled claimants, based on Social Security Numbers. However, three claimants did not appear on this report, and therefore their responses could not be verified at the time of review. The Division has identified both short-term and long-term corrective actions to address this discrepancy:  Short-term solution: A service ticket has been submitted to the Application Support team to investigate and resolve the issue that caused these claimants to be excluded from the report. Once resolved, future reports are expected to consistently capture all claimant responses associated with weekly certifications. * Long-term solution: The Division recognizes the need for a modernized system to improve the efficiency and reliability of claims processing and adjudication. Current case management systems are outdated and have limited functionality. Implementation of an updated system will allow for automated capture of weekly certification responses, improved data accessibility, and enhanced identification of potential compliance issues requiring investigation.

Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: We acknowledge that audit ready evidence was not produced in a timely fashion but respectfully disagree that the Division did not maintain this evidence. The lack of timely production can be attributed to lack of awareness of the proper repository where such audit evidence was maintained and/or could be easily retrieved, as opposed to no maintenance at all.

The Division should not seek federal reimbursement unless it can substantiate that the time and effort was dedicated to the federal program. Documentation should be readily available for audit. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: We agree that the division was unable to provide documentation supporting the timesheet approval as asserted. However, we respectfully disagree that the lack of timesheet approval translates into charging the program with unallowed costs. It’s important that the auditors understand that the division’s responsibility to ensure that payroll charges to the program are appropriate begins with ensuring that each employee tasked with performing program functions are hired into the correct division internal program unit (“IPU”). And then further within that IPU, instruct employees to use a specific activity code that is assigned to various federal programs. In the samples reviewed, employees properly used the correct activity code to record time for the work performed. Action taken in response to finding: The business will continue to refine its process for demonstrating the appropriateness of allowed payroll costs to the program and present a substantial action plan in late FY2027.

Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The Division of Unemployment Insurance (Division) acknowledges the finding and agrees that improvements are necessary to ensure full compliance with Benefits Accuracy Measurement (BAM) program requirements. The Division recognizes the importance of conducting weekly investigations and adhering to established timeliness standards to maintain the integrity and accuracy of unemployment insurance benefit payments and denied claims. The Division notes that the identified deficiencies were primarily due to significant staffing shortages and competing operational demands, which were further exacerbated by the sustained workload associated with pandemic-related programs. These challenges affected the Division’s capacity to complete the required number of weekly investigations and to meet prescribed case completion timeframes. To address these issues, the Division has taken and will continue to take corrective actions, including: · Actively recruiting and onboarding additional staff dedicated to BAM operations. · Providing enhanced training to ensure staff are equipped to conduct timely and thorough investigations. · Implementing improved case management and tracking mechanisms to monitor timeliness and workload distribution. · Evaluating internal processes to identify efficiencies and reduce delays in case completion. The Division is committed to strengthening internal controls and ensuring compliance with federal requirements. Management will continue to monitor progress and take additional corrective actions as necessary to meet BAM performance standards moving forward.
