Local Community-Based Workforce to Increase COVID-19 Vaccine Access and HIV Emergency Relief Project Grants Criteria: The Data Collection Form is required to be submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse ("FAC") within nine months of year end (2 CFR 200.512(a)(2). Condition: The Data Collection Form was not submitted to the FAC within the nine-month period for the year ended June 30, 2022. Effect: The Organization was not in compliance with the requirement to complete the filing required by the Uniform Guidance within nine months of its year end. Context: When performing our audit we noted the Data Collection Form submission to the FAC was not filed on a timely basis. Cause: The Organization was in the process of a merger. In addiiton, there were personnel changes within the Organization. Both incidents caused delays in concluding the audits on a timely basis.
