FINDING 2024-001: SECTION 202, ASSISTANCE LISTING NUMBER 14.157 Condition: One of the tenant files tested did not include support for household income on the recertification tested. In addition, the tenant file did not contain a copy of the tenant's signed application or a completed move-out inspection. Criteria: All tenant files should contain support for household income on the recertification. In addition, the tenant file should include a copy of the tenant's signed application and a move-out inspection. Effect: There is no financial effect. Context: A sample of tenant files was selected to ensure compliance with HUD regulations. The test found that one of the files tested was not in compliance. The non compliance did not have a financial effect. The details and results of the sample are as follows: Population - 15, Dollars - N/A; Sample - 2, Dollars - N/A; Not in Compliance - 1, Dollars - N/A; Questioned Costs - None; Cause: Project management failed to obtain support for household income during the recertification process. In addition, Project management failed to obtain the tenant's signature on the initial application and failed to complete a move-out inspection. Recommendation: Project management should be reminded that obtaining proper documentation during the move-in, recertification, and move-out process is important in tenant management. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The Project agrees with the finding. Project management will be reminded to obtain the proper documentation during the move-in, recertification, and move-out process.
