Statement of Condition: The Corporation did not submit the data collection form and required reporting package to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse (FAC) within the required due dates for the single audit for the year ending June 30, 2022.
Criteria: The Uniform Guidance, 2 CFR Part 200 Section 200.512(d), Report Submission, requires any non-federal entity that expends Federal awards which must be audited under Subpart F of 2 CFR to electronically submit to the FAC the data collection form and the reporting package described in 2 CFR Part 200 Section 200.512. Additionally, 2 CFR Section 200.512(a) requires the reporting package and data collection form to be submitted to the FAC the earlier of 30 calendar days after the reports are received from the auditors or nine months after the end of the audit period.
Effect: Noncompliance with Uniform Guidance regulations.
Cause: Timing delays in receipt of information required to complete the audit for the year ending June 30, 2022
Context: A test was performed to review the two most recent fiscal year audits performed under the Uniform Guidance and the required data collection forms were submitted to the FAC to determine if the Corporation qualified as a low-risk auditee. A single audit was performed under the Uniform Guidance for the years ending June 30, 2022 and 2021, however, the data collection form was not submitted to the FAC within the required due dates for the year ending June 30, 2022.
Questioned Costs: N/A
Recommendation: We recommend management ensure that the data collection forms are submitted electronically to the FAC within the required due dates each fiscal year going forward.
Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan: Management acknowledges the data collection form for the years ended June 30, 2022 was not submitted to the FAC within the required due dates. Management will provide additional oversight to ensure the data collection forms are submitted electronically to the FAC each fiscal year going forward within required due dates. The data collection form for the year ending June 30, 2022 was submitted to the FAC on June 12, 2023.
