Condition / Context The Data Collection Form was not submitted by its due date of November 11, 2024.

Effect Such finding could impact subsequent federal funding. Identification as a Repeat Finding, if Applicable N/A Recommendation Improve the timeliness of financial information and submit the Data Collection Form by the due date. View of Responsible Official and Corrective Action The delay in the submission of the Data Collection Form was a direct result of the audit team moving to a new accounting firm and a miscommunication as to which firm was going to assist with the completion of the Data Collection Form. Management has taken steps to ensure that the Data Collection Form for the year-ended June 30, 2025 will be submitted timely. Upon identifying the late submission, management immediately completed the submission of the 2024 Data Collection Form and reporting package on August 12, 2025.

Additionally, program-specific requirements may mandate timely submission to other agencies, including Rural Development (RD). Condition and Context: The auditee did not submit the required audit reports to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) and Rural Development (RD) in a timely manner. Specifically: The 2023 Audit Report was not submitted to the FAC as required under 2 CFR Part 200, Subpart F. The 2024 Audit Report was submitted past the regulatory deadline to both the FAC and RD. Cause: The delays and omissions appear to have resulted from the prior auditor not being able to submit the Audit Report due to technical issues and the Rural Department not providing the loan statements in a timely manner. Effect: Failure to submit audit reports timely impedes the federal government’s oversight responsibilities, potentially affects the auditee's risk assessment, and may jeopardize continued funding eligibility. Recommendation: Management should establish and adhere to a documented internal timeline to ensure timely audit preparation and submission. This should include calendar reminders, assigned staff responsibilities, and periodic checks throughout the audit cycle. Communication with the auditor should begin early in the fiscal year to ensure deadlines are met.

Section III. Federal Award Findings and Questioned Costs 2024-001 Reporting Information on Federal Program Assisting Listing Number 21.027, U.S. Department of the Treasury, Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds American Rescue Plan Act Criteria or Specific Requirement According to 2 CFR Part 200.512, auditees are required to submit the audit reporting package, including the Single Audit report, to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within 30 days after receipt of the auditors report(s), or nine months after the end of the audit period, whichever comes first. Condition The auditee did not submit the audit reporting package for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 within the required time frame. The Single Audit report was submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse on April 4, 2025, which is beyond the required deadline of September 30, 2024. Questioned Costs: $0 Context: The reporting package was submitted 186 days past the deadline. Cause - The delay was due to a lack of effective internal controls and oversight to ensure timely submission of the audit reporting package. Effect or Potential Effect - Late submission of the audit reporting package may result in non-compliance with federal requirements, potentially affecting the auditees eligibility for future federal funding and subjecting the auditee to increased scrutiny or penalties. Recommendation - We recommend that the YMCA establish and implement a formal process to monitor and ensure timely submission of the audit reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. This process should include setting internal deadlines and assigning responsibility to specific personnel for compliance monitoring. Views of Responsible Officials Management has reviewed the finding related to the late filing of the audit report to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse and has developed the following plan to address this finding and ensure compliance going forward: 1. Root Cause Analysis Previous to 2023, the last time the YMCA was required to have a Single Audit was the year ended December 31, 2012. Because this was a new process to the YMCA, we were unaware that we needed to submit the Single Audit to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. In past years, the independent audit firm initiated the e-filing process on our behalf. 2. Action Steps The YMCA will develop a year-end Federal Awards checklist to include all necessary preparation steps including but not limited to preparation of the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA); corresponding audit documentation; and procedures for filing the completed Single Audit to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse including confirmation that independent auditors have reviewed and certified the submission to the Clearinghouse. 3. Responsible Parties The Controller will complete the checklist and perform the filing to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse and the CFO will review and approve. 4. Timeline Submission of the Single Audit to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse as well as completion, review, and approval of the checklist will be done within 30 days of receipt of the final Single Audit report. 5. Monitoring & Evaluation The checklist and approval process will be monitored on an annual basis to ensure ongoing compliance and effectiveness of this corrective action plan.

Condition and context: The Organization did not submit its 2023 Single Audit reporting package to the FAC within the required timeframe. The submission occurred after the nine-month deadline.

Finding 2024-003: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Mortgage Insurance for the Purchase or Refinancing of Existing Multifamily Housing Projects (Section 223(f)/207) Statement of Condition: The Organization did not submit the data collection forms and required reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) by the required due date for the single audit for the year ending December 31, 2023. Criteria: The Uniform Guidance, 2 CFR Part 200 Section 200.512(d), Report Submission, requires any non-federal entity that expends Federal awards which must be audited under Subpart F of 2 CFR to electronically submit to the FAC the data collection form and the reporting package described in 2 CFR Part 200 Section 200.512. Additionally, 2 CFR Section 200.512(a) requires the reporting package and data collection form to be submitted to the FAC the earlier of 30 calendar days after the reports are received from the auditors or nine months after the end of the audit period. Effect: Noncompliance with Uniform Guidance regulations. Cause: The completion of the audit for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 was delayed due to the absence of signatures. Context: A test was performed to review the two most recent fiscal year audits performed under the Uniform Guidance and the required data collection forms were submitted to the FAC to determine if the Corporation qualified as a low-risk auditee. A single audit was performed under the Uniform Guidance for the year ending December 31, 2023, however, the data collection form was not submitted to the FAC within the required due dates. Questioned Costs: $0 Recommendation: We recommend the board of directors and management ensure that the audit and data collection forms are completed timely and the data collection form and required reporting package are submitted electronically to the FAC each fiscal year going forward by the required due date.

The data collection form for the year ending December 31, 2023 was submitted to the FAC on January 2, 2025.
