Department of Health and Human Services –Refugeeand Entrant Assistance Discretionary Grants Assistance Listing Number 93.576, Refugee and Entrant Assistance Wilson/Fish Program Assistance Listing Number 93.583; Grant period-year ended September 30, 2024. Criteria: Grant reports are to be submitted in accordance with deadlines outlined in the grant agreement. Condition: Grant reports selected for testing of timely submission were filed late. Questioned Costs: None Cause: Based on the large in flux of refugees in a short time period and additional funds being provided to the Organization on a retrospective basis, the Organization was not able to file the grant report timely, as these factors required additional work be done on the Organization's end to ensure the grant reports were filed accurately. Effect: Due to the fact that grants may not reimburse expenses incurred until grant reports are filed, this could result in a delay in cash receipts. Repeat Finding: Yes Recommendation: We recommend that management ensure that grants are filed timely Views of Responsible Officials: See Auditee’s Corrective Action Plan.
