Criteria 2 CFR 200.512 stipulates the requirement that the Single Audit reporting package 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. Cause Due to turnover, internal controls were not properly designed, executed, and monitored to ensure a timely preparation of reports and records for audit purposes. As a result, management did not comply with the submission requirements of 2 CFR 200.512. Effect Late reporting could cause additional oversight or restriction by certain grantors

Corrective Action Plan

Recommendation We recommend that management enhance its internal control structure, including financial close and reporting, to ensure timely filing of future Single Audit reporting packages. Management Response Corrective Action FNCH recognizes the critical importance of establishing robust internal controls to guarantee the timely preparation and accurate submission of reports and records for audit purposes, particularly in alignment with the requirements outlined in 2 CFR 200.512. To effectively implement these internal controls, management will enforce procedures for the timely preparation of all necessary reports and records, including the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA). This will not only facilitate smoother audit processes but also ensure adherence to the 2 CFR 200.512. Management will train staff and establish timelines and responsibilities for report preparation and documentation to enhance compliance and streamline overall operations. Expected Outcome: • On‑time Single Audit filings in compliance with federal rules. • Clear visibility and accountability for deadlines. • Reduced risk of penalties and funding delays. • Greater confidence from agencies and stakeholders. Due Date of Completion: 3 days following issuance of the audit report Responsible Party(ies): CEO, CFO
