U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (Pass-through from Virginia Office of Community Planning and Development) Assistance Listing #14.267 Finding 2022-003 Known Questioned Costs for a Federal Program Not Audited as a Major Program Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR 200.516(a)(4) known questioned costs that are greater than $25,000 for a program that is not audited as a major program must be reported as an audit finding in the federal awards section of the schedule of findings and questioned costs. In September 2022, the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development/Virginia Office of Community Planning and Development, identified $1,463 of unallowed expenditures and a deficit of $27,464 in the required cash match under the Continuum of Care program for the year ended December 31, 2021, as a result of monitoring. Condition: The Federal awarding agency has determined, in accordance with 24 CFR 578.51; 24 CFR 578.57, $1,463 of allowable HMIS expenses were not documented and that in accordance with 2 CFR 200.1; 2 CFR 200.103(a)(11); 2 CFR 200.306; 24 CFR 578.73 the grantee failed to match $27,464 on its Continuum of Care rapid rehousing project. Cause: The Federal awarding agency believes staff requesting reimbursement were not fully aware of what constitutes an allowable project expense and that grantee misinterpreted regulations concerning match for Federal grants. Effect: The Federal awarding agency asserts that grantee requested reimbursement for non-reimbursable expenses and did not contribute the required match to its Continuum of Care project. Recommendation: Grantee is required to repay $1,463 for unallowable HMIS and $27,464 for match deficit. Views of responsible official: NRCA has developed a corrective action plan. NRCA is in the process of resolving this matter with the Department of HUD and is currently seeking counsel to ensure this resolution is resolved in an acceptable and appropriate manner.
