Finding No.2024-003: Noncompliance with Annual Financial Statements Audit and Single Audit Submission Requirements Assistance Listing Number: 93.566 Program Name: Refugee and Entrant Assistance State/Replacement Designee Administered Programs Federal Agency: Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Passed Through Entities: 1. California Department of Social Services 2. University of California, San Diego 3. California Rural Legal Assistance Foundation 4. San Diego Refugee Communities Coalition/United Women of East Africa Support Team 5. Public Health Institute (PHI) 6. License to Freedom Federal Award Numbers: ALSP22-0002-A1, ALSP23-0001, PUR00533092, ACS22-05-CAIR, 06568-AR76924 Federal Award Year: August 1, 2022 to June 30, 2026 Compliance Requirement: Reporting Criteria: California Nonprofit Integrity Act of 2004 requires nonprofit organizations to obtain an annual independent audit and must make the audited financial statements available to the California Attorney General no later than 9 months after the close of the fiscal year. Title 2 CFR § 200.512(a)(1) requires non-federal entities to submit the single audit reporting package, including the Data Collection Form (SF‑SAC) and the auditor’s reports, to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within the earlier of (i) 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s reports, or (ii) nine (9) months after the end of the audit period. Condition: The single audit reporting package for the year ended December 31, 2023, was submitted by CAIR-CA in August 2025. CAIR-CA also failed to complete its financial and single audit for the year ended December 31, 2024 within the required nine month deadline under 2 CFR 200.512. As of September 30, 2025, no single audit report has been issued or filed, resulting in noncompliance with federal audit requirements. Cause: The year ended December 31, 2023, represented CAIR-CA’s first year undergoing a single audit, with 2024 being its second. During this initial implementation period, management was in the process of aligning its internal processes with applicable federal reporting requirements, including FAC submission protocols and deadlines. As part of this transition, formalized procedures to support timely submission were established and refined. Effect: Delays in submitting the single audit reporting package result in noncompliance with federal requirements and may increase scrutiny from federal agencies or affect the timing of future funding. Questioned Cost: None Recommendation: We recommend that management continue to enhance its processes related to single audit compliance and formalize policies and procedures to support timely submission. This should include establishing clear timelines, assigning responsibility for monitoring key deadlines, and implementing a process to track submission status to the FAC. These steps will help promote timely and accurate submissions in the future reporting periods. Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan: Management has developed and implemented corrective actions to address this finding. As of January 1, 2026, formal procedures for FAC submission have been established, including defined roles, internal deadlines, and review protocols. A compliance tracking system has been implemented to monitor key reporting deadlines, and staff have received training on federal requirements. Management will continue to monitor adherence to these procedures to ensure timely submission in future reporting periods. Implementation date: January 1, 2026

2024-001 – Reporting – Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance Federal program: All programs impacted. Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR Section 200.512(a), the audit must be completed and the data collection form and reporting package must be submitted within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s report, or nine months after the end of the audit period, adjusted for any extensions permitted by the Office of Management and Budget. Condition: The reporting package and data collection form for the year ended December 31, 2024, was not filed by the deadline of September 30, 2025, to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. Context: The reporting package and data collection form for the year ended December 31, 2024, were filed late to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. Effect: The reporting package and data collection form for the year ended December 31, 2024, were not accessible to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse in a timely manner. Cause: Due to delays in completing the financial statement audit, which was issued on February 11, 2026, the Hospital was unable to submit the reporting package and data collection form to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse by the required timeline. Recommendation: We recommend the Hospital adopt policies and procedures, including tracking and monitoring of reporting requirements, to ensure that the audit, reporting package, and data collection form are electronically filed with the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the applicable deadline. Views of Responsible Official: See management’s Corrective Action Plan on page 51.

Finding #2024-001 – Material Weakness – Accounting Recordkeeping All Programs Other Criteria Accounting tasks, such as timely monthly analysis, reconciliations and review of accounts, play a key role in providing the accuracy of accounting data and information included in the interim and year-end financial statements. Trial balances should be maintained for the Organization continuously, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Detailed supporting schedules should be maintained for all significant asset, liability, revenue and expense accounts. Reconciling items should be investigated and resolved in a timely manner. All of the forementioned items are essential to ensure that financial statements and data collection forms are submitted in conformance with 2 CFR Section 200.512(a)(1). Condition During the year ended December 31, 2024, management did not properly accrue federal grant expenditures that were incurred during the fourth quarter of the year. As a result, federal grant expenses on cost reimbursement grants and related revenues were understated as of December 31, 2024, and required year end audit adjustments to properly reflect expenditures incurred but not invoiced or recorded as of year end. Cause The condition occurred due to turnover in personnel and a lack of effective internal controls surrounding the federal grant invoicing and accrual process. Specifically, management did not have sufficient procedures in place to ensure that all grant expenditures incurred during the period were timely identified and accrued for when invoices had not yet been submitted. In addition, periodic reconciliations between the incurred grant expenditures, amounts invoiced to grantors, and the revenue and expense recorded in the general ledger were not consistently performed. Effects As a result, federal grant expenditures incurred during the fourth quarter of 2024 were not properly accrued at year end, resulting in a misstatement of expenses and related liabilities. Although the misstatement was identified and corrected during the audit, there is an increased risk that future financial statements and federal reports may be misstated if effective controls over grant accrual and reconciliations are not implemented and maintained. In addition, this led to the Organization to be noncompliant with required deadlines for the Uniform Guidance. Questions Costs None. Perspective This audit finding is systematic. Statistical Sample A statistical sample is not applicable to this finding. Repeat Finding This audit finding is not a repeat finding. Recommendation We recommend that individuals overseeing the accounting and finance department continue to review the Organization’s current accounting policies and update existing policies or implement new policies, as needed, to ensure that federal grant expenditures are properly accrued for and recorded in the proper period and reconciliations between incurred expenditures, invoices submitted and amounts recorded in the general ledger are completed and reviewed monthly or quarterly, as appropriate. Views of Responsible Officials Management agrees with the finding and acknowledges that federal grant expenditures incurred during the fourth quarter of 2024 were not properly accrued due to weaknesses in the grant invoicing and reconciliation process. To remediate this issue, management has implemented procedures to identify and accrue grant expenditures incurred but not yet invoiced at period end, as needed.

Auditor’s Recommendations: FCCH should implement its approved policies and procedures and complete the year-end account reconciliations in a timely manner to ensure the timely completion of the audit and submission of the single audit reporting package. Management’s Response: FCCH leadership inherited a situation in which the organization was woefully behind in its accounting records. The existing team has relentlessly pursued getting caught up. Turnover has hampered our efforts, yet we remain committed to the task. We are committed to continuing the effort to become fully compliant and to submit our 2025 audit on time. The FCCH Board of Directors shall ensure accountability for completing all audits in the future on time.

Finding 2024-001 – Late Completion and Submission of Single Audit Reporting Package Federal Program Information Federal Awarding Agency: Various Federal Agencies Assistance Listing Numbers: Various Program Name: Multiple Federal Programs Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance and Other Matter Criteria Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) § 200.512(a) requires the auditee to submit the data collection form and reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s report(s), or nine months after the end of the audit period. In addition, 2 CFR § 200.507 requires the auditee to arrange for the performance of a Single Audit in accordance with Subpart F of Uniform Guidance. Condition The Organization’s Single Audit for the year ended December 31, 2023, was not completed within the required timeframe. As a result, the reporting package and data collection form were submitted late to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. The audit report due date was September 30, 2024; however, the reporting package was not submitted until March 11, 2025. Questioned Costs None. Context The Organization expended in excess of $750,000 in federal awards during the fiscal year and was therefore subject to the Single Audit requirements under Uniform Guidance. The delay resulted in noncompliance with the federal reporting requirements applicable to Single Audits. Cause Due to staffing capacity constraints, the Organization experienced delays in completing necessary year-end financial closing procedures, which resulted in the reporting package not being submitted within the required deadline. Effect or Potential Effect Failure to complete the Single Audit and submit the reporting package within the required timeframe may result in increased federal oversight, reputational risk, delayed funding decisions, and potential sanctions or restrictions from federal awarding agencies or pass-through entities. Recommendation We recommend that management strengthen its internal controls and monitoring procedures over the financial reporting and Single Audit process to ensure future compliance with Uniform Guidance reporting deadlines. Views of Responsible Officials Management agrees with the finding and has indicated that corrective actions will be implemented to improve the timeliness of the audit process and future FAC submissions.

Finding 2024-001 – Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance – Untimely Submission of Single Audit Reporting Package Federal Program Information Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistance Listing Number(s): 14.235, 14.239, 14.241, 14.267 Program Name: Supportive Housing, HOME Investment Partnerships Program, Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS, Continuum of Care Program Type of Finding Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance Other Matter – Reporting Criteria In accordance with 2 CFR §200.512, the auditee is required to submit the Data Collection Form and reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s reports or nine months after the end of the audit period. Condition The Organization did not submit the required Single Audit reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the required timeframe for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. The reporting package was submitted in June 2026. Cause Management did not have adequate procedures in place to ensure timely preparation and submission of financial information required for completion of the audit and Single Audit reporting package. Delays in providing requested financial information to the auditors, along with other unforeseen circumstances encountered during the audit process, contributed to the untimely filing.. Effect Failure to submit the Single Audit reporting package timely constitutes noncompliance with Uniform Guidance reporting requirements and may subject the Organization to increased oversight from federal agencies and pass-through programs. Questioned Costs None noted. Recommendation We recommend management strengthen internal procedures related to the preparation, review, and timely submission of financial information necessary for completion of the audit and Single Audit reporting requirements. Management should establish formal timelines, assign responsibility for monitoring reporting deadlines, and enhance communication with auditors throughout the audit process to help ensure timely filing with the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action Management acknowledges the finding and recognizes improvements are needed in the coordination and timing of information provided during the audit process. Management plans to implement enhanced internal timelines and monitoring procedures for future audits and Single Audit submissions. Management will also work more closely with auditors throughout the engagement to help ensure all required information is provided timely and future reporting deadlines are met.

Information on Federal Programs: 93.083 – Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: Prevention of Disease, Disability, and Death through Immunization & Control of Respiratory & Related Diseases. Criteria or Specific Requirements: 2 CFR §200.512(a) requires the auditee to submit the data collection form and reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse by the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditors’ report, or nine months after the end of the audit period. Condition: For the year ended December 31, 2023, ATS’s single audit reporting package was required to be submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse by September 30, 2024 (nine months after year end). The auditors’ reports were issued on May 30, 2025, and the data collection form and reporting package were submitted on June 27, 2025. As a result, the submission did not meet the Uniform Guidance due date requirement. Cause: Fieldwork timelines for the 2023 audit were extended due to deficiencies in month end and year end closing, revenue recognition, and expense recognition and cut-off internal control processes, as outlined in findings 2023-001, 2023-002 and 2023-003. These delays in completing the financial statement audit and single audit contributed to the late issuance of the auditors’ reports and the late submission of the single audit reporting package. Effect: Late submission of the single audit reporting package represents noncompliance with the reporting requirements of 2 CFR §200.512(a). This noncompliance may result in ATS being considered a higher-risk auditee by Federal agencies and pass-through entities, and may negatively affect eligibility for future Federal funding. Perspective: Due to delays in completing the 2023 audit, ATS did not submit the single audit reporting package for the year ended December 31, 2023, to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse by the required due date. Questioned Costs: None. Identification as a Repeat Finding: Not applicable. Recommendation: ATS should implement and monitor procedures to ensure that future audits are completed in sufficient time to allow submission of the data collection form and single audit reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse by the earlier of 30 days after the date of the auditors’ reports or nine months after the end of the fiscal year, in accordance with 2 CFR §200.512(a). This should include strengthening the underlying financial reporting and closing processes noted in related findings so that they do not delay audit completion.

Criteria: In accordance with 2 CFR part 200, subpart F, section 200.512, the reporting package must be submitted the earlier of nine (9) months after year end or 30 days after the report issuance. Condition and context: The Organization did not adhere to the Uniform Guidance requirement of submitting the reporting package within the earlier of 30 days after the receipt of the audit report, or the nine (9) months after the end of the audit period. Cause: Due to high employee turnover and lack of internal controls over this function. Effect: The Organization was not in compliance with reporting requirements. Questioned Costs: None noted. Repeat finding: No, however due to the number of issues identified we believe this to be a systemic issue. Recommendation: We recommend the Organization adhere to Uniform Guidance reporting requirements. Management’s Response: Management concurs with the finding. See Corrective Action Plan.

Criteria: According to 2 CFR 200.512, the annual single audit must be completed and the data collection form and reporting package must be submitted within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s report or nine months after the end of the audit period (September 30, 2025). Condition: The Foundation’s 2024 single audit reporting package was not submitted by the due date of September 30, 2025. Questioned Costs: None Context: N/A Cause: The Foundation experienced turnover in the accounting department in key positions in recent years, which caused significant delays in completion of the year-end reconciliations of the financial statements and the schedule of expenditures of federal awards. Effect: The Foundation was unable to completely reconcile certain general ledger accounts timely, which resulted in the audit not being completed within the reporting deadline. Auditor’s Recommendation: The Foundation should implement its approved policies and procedures and complete the year-end account reconciliations in a timely manner to ensure the timely completion of the audit and submission of the single audit reporting package. Management’s Response: The Foundation acknowledges that the 2024 single audit reporting package was not submitted by the September 30, 2025 deadline under 2 CFR 200.512. This delay resulted directly from the challenges detailed in Finding 2024-001. Significant accounting turnover delayed year-end reconciliations and SEFA preparation. The Foundation has implemented substantial corrective actions to address root causes and ensure future timeliness. As outlined in the response to Finding 2024-001, comprehensive SOPs now govern financial close, revenue/deposit processing, reconciliations, payroll, fiscal sponsorship financial management, and fund setup. These promote consistent monthly GL reconciliations, accurate/timely transaction recording, strong documentation, and efficient inter-departmental coordination. Supporting improvements include standardized monthly reporting, system integrations reducing manual workSection III—Federal Award Findings and Questioned Costs 2024-003—Late Audit Report clear responsibilities and timelines in SOPs, and emphasis on procedural continuity to mitigate transition risks. The Foundation is completing remaining 2024 items and committed to submitting the package promptly.

By these actions, the Foundation has remediated the conditions and is positioned to meet all future single audit deadlines while maintaining strong fund stewardship.

Reporting – Late Report Submissions to Federal Audit Clearinghouse and HUD Identification as a Repeat Finding: Not a repeat finding Federal Awards: 14.881 -HUD Moving to Work Demonstration; 14.195 - HUD Project Based Cluster; 21.027 - Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery FUnds. Finding: The Authority did not file its annual 2023 Single Audit and Data Collection Form timely with the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) and did not file its audited Financial Data Schedule timely with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). Sample Size and Population: Sampling was not applicable to this finding. Questioned Costs: None Criteria: As stated in 2 CFR 200.512(a)(1), the Uniform Guidance requires submission of the Single Audit Reporting Package and Data Collection Form to the FAC nine months after the fiscal year-end. As stated in 24 CFR 902.33(c), HUD requires public housing authorities to submit an audited Financial Data Schedule (FDS) through FASS-PH no later than 9 months after the fiscal year-end. As such, the Authority’s 2023 Single Audit and Data Collection Form submission to the FAC and the audited FDS submission to HUD were both due September 30, 2024. Condition: The FAC submission and the audited FDS submission were each filed more than 20 days after the due date. Cause: During 2023, the Authority underwent a major accounting and tenant management software conversion which resulted in delays in completing the Single Audit. Effect: • The Authority was non-compliant with Uniform Guidance and HUD reporting deadlines. • Late availability of audit information delayed Federal oversight and public transparency. Recommendations: Develop internal controls that provide for month-end and year-end accounting close milestone that include deadlines that will ensure external reporting deadlines are able to be met.

Condition: IJD did not submit its Single Audit report for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024 to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within the required nine-month deadline. Cause: The late submission was due to a number of factors, including turnover in key positions on the finance team, accounting system changes and overall lack of resources available dedicated to completing the annual audit in a timely manner. Effect or Potential Effect: Failure to submit the Single Audit report by the required deadline results in noncompliance with Federal regulations, potentially delaying Federal oversight and impacting IJD’s ability to access Federal funding in the future. Questioned Costs: None. Context: This finding is considered systemic rather than isolated. The entity has not had prior findings related to late submissions in recent years. However, the combination of new financial system implementation and staff turnover created unusual circumstances that delayed preparation of accurate financial information and completion of the audit.

Material Weakness – Reporting Criteria The Uniform Guidance requires that all entities that expend in excess of $750,000 to file audited financial statements and Data Collection Form within 9 months of year-end. (2 CFR Section 200.512). Entities are required to submit timely GAAP-based audited financial information to HUD’s Financial Assessment Subsystem within 90 days of year end. (24 CFR Section 5.801(c)(2) and HUD Handbook 4065.1 REV-1, paragraph 2-1 (D)(1)(b)). Condition The Project’s December 31, 2024 audited financial statements were not filed with the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within nine months of year-end. The audited financial statements were not reported to HUD’s Financial Assessment Subsystem within 90 days of year end.

Criteria: OMB's Uniform Guidance 2 CFR 200.512 requires a Data Collection form to be filed the earlier of 30 days after receipt of the Single Audit Report of nine months after year-end for those entities expending more than $750,000 of federal funds. Condition: The County of Newton, Texas did not file the required Data Collection form within the required time period. Cause: Due to a change in staffing of management level positions, including the County Auditor and County Judge, the County of Newton, Texas was unable to compile its internal reports and prepare its financial statements in a timely manner for audit. Due to the timing of the preparation of the financial statements, the County of Newton, Texas was unable to submit the Data Collection form timely and was not in compliance with reporting requirements. Effect: The noncompliance with compliance attributes required under the Uniform Guidance 2 CFR 200 may affect the County of Newton, Texas's current grant contracts and the opportunity to qualify for future grants. Recommendation: The County of Newton, Texas's Commissioner's should adopt and management should implement internal controls over oversight, monitoring and reporting to ensure compliance requirements as per the Uniform Guidance 2 CFR 200.

2024-001 LATE FILING OF THE SINGLE AUDIT REPORTING PACKAGE WITH THE FEDERAL AUDIT CLEARINGHOUSE Federal Agency:U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Federal Program Title & Assistance Listing Number: 93.243 Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Projects of Regional and National Significance Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency and Other Non-compliance Compliance Area: Reporting Questioned Costs: None Condition UVNR did not submit its Single Audit reporting package, including the audited financial statements, data collection form, schedule of findings and questioned costs, summary schedule of prior audit findings, and corrective action plan, within the required filing period. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the reporting package was required to be submitted no later than September 30, 2025. Criteria Title 2 CFR § 200.512 requires the audit, data collection form, and reporting package to be submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the earlier of:  30 calendar days after the auditee receives the auditor’s reports; or  Nine months after the end of the audit period. Accordingly, UVNR’s reporting package for the year ended December 31, 2024, was due no later than September 30, 2025. Effect The Single Audit reporting package was not available timely to Federal agencies, pass-through entities, grantors, and other users of the audit reports. Late submission may result in additional oversight, restrictions on Federal awards, delayed grant funding, or other actions by Federal agencies or pass-through entities. UVNR was not in compliance with the reporting requirements of 2 CFR § 200.512. Cause UVNR did not have adequate procedures to ensure that year-end financial records, the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards, audit schedules, and supporting documentation were prepared and provided timely. The Organization also did not have an effective process to monitor the Federal Audit Clearinghouse filing deadline and the status of the audit.

Finding 2024-001 Audit Delays Federal Agencies: U.S. Department of State and U.S. Agency for International Development Federal Programs: International Programs to Support Democracy, Human Rights and Labor and Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas Assistance Listing Numbers: 19.345 and 98.001 Pass-through Entity: None Award Identification Number and Year: S-LMAQM-20-GR-2099, S-LMAQM-20-GR-2100, SAQMIP- 22-GR-0005, S-AQMIP-23-GR-0343, 720-523-18-CA-00006, 720-486-23-LA-00001 Criteria or Specific Requirement: As noted in 2 CFR §200.303 "The non-Federal entity must 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. These internal controls should be in compliance with guidance in "Standards for Internal Control in the Federal Government" issued by the Comptroller General of the United States or the "Internal Control Integrated Framework", issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO)". As noted in 2 CFR §200.512 the audit report should be submitted nine months after the end of the audit period. Condition: There were delays in performing the audit, resulting in a late filing of the Uniform Guidance audit. In addition, we noted that certain accounts had not been reconciled throughout the year, but instead as part of audit preparation only. We noted that reconciliation of the indirect rate had also been delayed due to late receipt of a final rate and that further analysis is pending to determine any adjustments that may be required from the final rate determination. Cause: The above conditions arose due to numerous factors, including transition and turnover within the accounting department. Effect or Potential Effect: Timely year-end closure is important to avoid increased potential for fraud, misstatements, and failures to adhere to donor and other regulations. Effective filing of documents decreases the potential for non-compliance with donor requirements, questioned costs or findings. Questioned Costs: None Context: ICFJ has been impacted by funding changes as well as transition in staff within the acconting department. Identification as a Repeat Finding, if Applicable: Not applicable Recommendation: We recommend that ICFJ ensure that a monthly close process is followed to ensure timely and accurate financial reporting, transparent documentation of review and approval of transactions, and compliance with applicable donor requirements. Financial and compliance documents should be filed to permit prompt retrieval.

2024-004 Timely Filing of Single Audit Report Type of Finding Compliance - Other Matter Criteria or Specific Requirement According to 2 CFR 200.512(a) of the Uniform Guidance, auditees are required to submit the audit report and Data Collection Form (DCF) to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within the earlier of 30 calendar days after the reports are received from the auditor or nine months after the end of the audit period. Condition and Context The DCF has not been submitted by its due date of September 30, 2025. Cause Delays in the federal single audit process led to the delay in the federal single audit being completed. Effect or Potential Effect Delays in the single audit resulted in the FAC deadline being missed. Failure to submit the single audit report timely constitutes noncompliance with federal audit requirements. No questioned costs are reported as this requirement is administrative in nature. Recommendation The County should implement formal internal control policies and procedures to rectify the conditions noted above. Views of Responsible Official Management’s corrective action plan is included at the end of this report after the Schedule of Prior Year Findings.

Federal Program: Direct - USDA Rural Utilities Service award; ALN 10.760, 'Water and Waste Disposal Systems for Rural Communities' (Single Audit / Uniform Guidance) Condition: The Great Northwest Wholesale Water Commission did not complete and submit its reporting package, including the SEFA and the single audit report, to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within nine months of the fiscal year end. Questioned Costs: None. Criteria: Under 2 CFR §200.512, the audit must be completed, and the data collection form and reporting package must be submitted within 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor's report, or nine months after the fiscal year end, whichever is earlier. Context / Cause: The Commission was not aware that its federal award expenditures exceeded the $750,000 single audit threshold under 2 CFR §200.501 and did not engage auditors until November 2025. As a result, the single audits for the years ended December 31, 2022, 2023, and 2024 are being performed concurrently and will be submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse upon completion. Effect: Non-compliance with federal filing deadlines, which can place the entity on a federal risk-status list or jeopardize future grant funding eligibility. Recommendation: Management should implement a strict year-end financial closing schedule and engage external auditors early to ensure the SEFA is compiled, reconciled, and audited on time. Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding and has established a timeline to complete future filings prior to the statutory deadline.

Criteria The Uniform Guidance requires that all entities that expend in excess of $750,000 to file audited financial statements and Data Collection Form within 9 months of year-end. (2 CFR Section 200.512). Entities are required to submit timely GAAP-based audited financial information to HUD’s Financial Assessment Subsystem within 90 days of year end. (24 CFR Section 5.801(c)(2) and HUD Handbook 4065.1 REV-1, paragraph 2-1 (D)(1)(b)). Condition The Project’s December 31, 2024 audited financial statements were not filed with the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within nine months of year-end. The audited financial statements were not reported to HUD’s Financial Assessment Subsystem within 90 days of year end. Cause Turnover in staffing and lack of oversight led to information not being ready for audit in a timely manner. Questioned Costs Not Applicable. Context We reviewed all report submissions for compliance and internal controls. Effect The Project could have had federal funding delayed or reduced. Repeat Finding This is not a repeat finding. Recommendation We recommend the Project review its internal control policies and procedures to ensure timely reporting. Response The Project agrees with the finding and will implement controls to ensure timely reporting for future submissions.

Criteria: Under 2 CFR 200.512(a), an auditee must submit the single audit reporting package, including financial statements and the schedule of expenditures of federal awards (SEFA), no later than 30 days after receipt of the auditor’s report or nine months after the fiscal year-end, whichever comes first. Organization management is responsible for ensuring the financial statements are prepared and issued timely to meet the Single Audit submission deadline established by the FAC. Statement of Condition: The auditee’s single audit financial statements were not issued by the required due date. The fiscal year ended on December 31, 2024, making the reporting package due no later than September 30, 2025. However, the audit report date is August 25, 2026, resulting in the late submission of the single audit reporting package to the FAC. Cause of Condition: The delay occurred because of employee turnover and lack of adequate internal controls over financial reporting timelines. The auditee did not have sufficient processes in place to ensure the timely preparation and issuance of financial statements. Effect of Condition: Because the financial statements and reporting package were issued late, the auditee failed to comply with federal reporting requirements, federal agencies and pass-through entities did not receive timely financial and compliance information needed for monitoring and oversight, and the delay increases the risk that financial reporting issues may go undetected or unresolved. Questioned Costs: None. Recommendation: We recommend that management (1) strengthen internal controls over year-end financial reporting to ensure timely completion of the audit, (2) implement a detailed closing schedule and tracking process to monitor deadlines, (3) ensure adequate staffing or external support during the financial statement preparation and audit process, and (4) conduct periodic reviews to confirm compliance with federal Single Audit submission deadlines. Identification of Repeat Finding: The finding is a repeat of the finding noted in the audit for December 31, 2023 as finding 2023-004. Views of Responsible Officials: Management understands and accepts the recommendation as outlined in the Corrective Action Plan.

Assistance Listing Number, Federal Agency, and Program Name: All major programs Federal Award Identification Number and Year: 2024 Finding Type – Material weakness over compliance Repeat Finding - Yes Criteria – Per 2 CFR 200.512 (a) (1), the audit must be completed, and the data collection form described in paragraph (b) of this section and reporting package described in paragraph (c) of this section must be submitted within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor's report(s), or nine months after the end of the audit period. Per 2 CFR 200.501 (b), a non-Federal entity that expends $750,000 or more during the non-Federal entity's fiscal year in Federal awards must have a single audit conducted in accordance with § 200.514. Condition – The data collection form was not submitted within the required time as required by 2 CFR 200.512 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Context – The County’s single audit was not completed prior to the due date of data collection form. Identification of How Questioned Costs Were Computed – N/A Questioned Costs – None Cause – The County’s Schedule of Federal Awards was not prepared in a timely manner. Effect – Data collection forms were not submitted on time. Recommendation – We recommend that the County develop a reliable system to close the financial records in a timely manner. View of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan – Management agrees with finding. See corrective action plan.

Finding: 2024-004 Timely Submission of the Data Collection Form (DCF) to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse Federal Agency(ies): United States Department of Defense Federal Program(s): Research and Development Cluster Assistance Listing Number(s): 12.300, 12.330 Pass-through Entity (if applicable): Direct awards and pass-through awards from RTI International and Greensight, Inc. Award Identification Number and Year: Various Criteria or Specific Requirement (Including Statutory, Regulatory, or Other Citation): Pursuant to 2 CFR 200.512, a non-Federal entity that expends $750,000 or more in Federal awards during its fiscal year is required to submit the Single Audit reporting package, including the Data Collection Form (DCF), to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor's reports or nine months after the end of the audit period. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, the Organization was required to submit its reporting package and Data Collection Form no later than September 30, 2024. Condition: RoboNation did not timely submit its Single Audit reporting package and Data Collection Form for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The reporting package was not submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse until March 6, 2026, approximately 17 months after the required filing deadline of September 30, 2024. In addition, because the fiscal year 2023 audit was not completed in a timely manner, fieldwork for the fiscal year 2024 Single Audit was not scheduled to begin until after the September 30, 2025 filing deadline applicable to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024. Cause: RoboNation did not maintain effective controls to monitor and ensure timely completion of the annual Single Audit process and submission of required reporting to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. Specifically, procedures were not in place to monitor filing deadlines, coordinate audit completion activities, and ensure that required Federal reporting was submitted within the timeframe prescribed by Uniform Guidance. Effect or Potential Effect: RoboNation was not in compliance with the reporting requirements of Uniform Guidance. Untimely submission of the Single Audit reporting package may limit the ability of Federal agencies and pass-through entities to perform timely oversight of Federal awards and increases the risk of sanctions or additional monitoring by Federal awarding agencies. Questioned Costs: N/A Context: RoboNation was required to submit one Data Collection Form and reporting package related to its fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. The submission was made approximately 17 months after the required deadline. Identification as a Repeat Finding, if Applicable: No Recommendation: We recommend that management implement procedures to monitor all Single Audit reporting deadlines and establish a formal timeline for financial statement preparation, audit completion, review, and submission of the reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse. Management should periodically monitor progress against these deadlines throughout the year to ensure compliance with Uniform Guidance reporting requirements.

2024-001 - Untimely Audit Completion Condition The District did not have their fiscal year 2024 financial statement audit or fiscal year 2024 Single Audit completed within the required nine-month time frame. Criteria Per Idaho State Statute 67-450B, a local government entity whose annual expenditures (from all sources) exceeds two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) in a fiscal year shall cause a full and complete audit of its financial statements to be made each fiscal year. The entity shall file a completed audit report with the legislative services office within nine months after the end of the audit period. Additionally, Under Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200.512), auditees that expend $750,000 or more in federal awards during the fiscal year must have a Single Audit conducted. The reporting package, including both the financial statements and the Single Audit, must be submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within nine months after the end of the audit period. Cause The District was unfamiliar with the Single Audit requirements, including the nine-month submission deadline. Fiscal year 2024 was the District’s first year requiring a Single Audit, and District personnel were unaware that the Single Audit followed the same statutory and federal timing requirements as the financial statement audit. As a result, necessary preparations and documentation for the Single Audit were not initiated early enough to meet the required deadline. Effect of Condition There is no financial effect of this deficiency; it is a State compliance issue only. Additionally, failure to submit the Single Audit within the required timeframe constitutes noncompliance with federal Uniform Guidance and may affect future federal funding or the District’s eligibility for certain grants. Recommendation We recommend the District obtain an understanding of Single Audit requirements related to timing, documentation expectations, and reporting obligations and incorporate these deadlines into its annual financial and compliance reporting calendar. Ensuring that key staff are aware of federal requirements will help the District meet future Single Audit deadlines.

Criteria - In accordance with Uniform Guidance, 2 CFR § 200.512(a)(l), non-federal entities that are required to have a Single Audit must submit the audit reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within the earlier of 30 calendar days after receiving the auditors' reports, or nine months after the end of the fiscal year. The non-federal entity is responsible for submitting the reporting package, which includes the Data Collection Form (DCF) and the required audit reports. Condition - Management did not submit the reporting package including the DCF for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2024, to the FAC by the deadline of July 31, 2025. Cause - The Organization experienced delays in completing year end account reconciliations and was unable to provide the necessary information to the external auditors to complete the year end audit, leading to the late filing. Effect of Condition - Failure to submit the single audit on time is a violation of Federal regulations and will result in the Organization not being a low-risk auditee for the next two audit periods. Statistical Sampling - The sampling was not intended to be, and was not, a statistically valid sample. Questioned Costs - None. Perspective - Due to the late submission for this federal program, programs with required reporting may have similar issues. Recommendation - Management should implement internal controls and procedures to ensure timely reporting and closure of the year end books, establishing a project timeline and assigning responsibilities of key tasks to Organization employees as necessary. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions - The Organization acknowledges and is aware of this finding. Management and fiscal departments are responsible for timely reporting. Management will follow its comprehensive policies and procedures and complete reporting submissions on time for future periods.

2024-001 Late Audit Submission Federal Program Information: Funding agency: U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development Title: Supportive Housing for the Elderly AL number: 14.157 Condition: While the audit report was completed on June 30, 2025, the submission of the audit package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) was not completed until after nine months after the end of the audit period, June 30, 2025, which is the due date for audit report submission. Criteria: 2 CFR section 200.512(a) requires the reporting package and data collection form be submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse 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: A non-material non-compliance exists as the audit package was submitted after the due date. Cause: The audit package was ready to be submitted on the date of the deadline, but the current, active Unique Entity Identification Number (UEI) was unable to be located to enter in the Federal Audit Clearinghouse system in order to submit the audit package. Repeat: No Auditor's Recommendation: We recommend management ensures the Organization has an active UEI number at all times and has access to the number when needed. View of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding and has written a corrective action plan.
