Finding Text
Criteria:
2 CFR Part 92.209(h) establishes the maximum subsidy that a participating Organization may pay to, or on behalf of a family. The Organization must also establish a “minimum tenant contribution to rent.”
Condition:
The Organization established the maximum subsidy and the minimum tenant contribution to rent for a tenant during the fiscal year, but the amount actually charged to the tenant was different than the amount calculated.
Cause:
The Organization utilized a third-party provider during the year, and new recertifications were completed by the provider. However, for the one home identified, the rent for a tenant did not agree to the minimum tenant contribution to rent.
Effect:
One tenant was charged less rent than they should have been.
Questioned Costs:
None
Recommendations:
The Organization should charge tenants rent based on the minimum tenant contribution to rent, which is calculated annually as a part of the recertification process.
