When the information is uploaded, an error report is generated detailing any noted issues with the family information. The City is then required to correct the information to eliminate the errors.

Therefore, it appears that errors are not being resolved timely. Effect and Questioned Costs: Potentially incorrect information has been reported to HUD.
