AI Summary

  • Core Issue: The organization missed the federal deadline for submitting its single audit reporting package by 19 days.
  • Impacted Requirements: This delay violates the Uniform Guidance, specifically §.512, which mandates timely submission of audit reports.
  • Recommended Follow-up: Implement a robust internal control system to ensure future audits are completed and submitted on time.

Finding Text

Finding Criteria: Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance), Subpart F, §.512, requires Hand in Hand/Mano en Mano and Subsidiary to submit its single audit reporting package to the federal audit clearinghouse no later than 9 months after fiscal year-end. Condition and context: The federal reporting deadline for the State’s single audit reporting package was September 30, 2023; however, the organization did not issue its single audit reporting package until October 19, 2023. Effect: This finding results in a deficiency in internal control over compliance as the program’s management should have a system in place to ensure audits are filed timely. Cause: Prior auditors were unable to perform the audit and submit before the due date.

Corrective Action Plan

The organization should start their audit process earlier so that it can submit its single audit reporting package to the federal audit clearinghouse no later than 9 months after fiscal year-end. The organization has new auditors in the current year and expects to submit the single audit reporting package no later than 9 months after fiscal year-end.
