Per 2 CFR 200.512, the audit must be completed and the reporting package and data collection form must be submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the earlier of 30 calendar days after the receipt of the auditors' report, or nine months after the end of the audit period.

Effect or Potential Effect: The Alliance was not in compliance with the reporting requirements outlined in the agreement and in 2 CFR 200.500 through 521. Recommendation: We recommend that the Alliance implement procedures to ensure timely completion and submission of future single audits.
