Context – The Credit Union is required to submit three reports for the year ended December 31, 2022. All of the required reports were tested.

Identification as a repeat finding, if applicable – N/A
Recommendation – Management should review and update controls over federal grant reporting to ensure reports are prepared using complete and accurate information.
Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions – The input error was corrected prior to end of the audit. The credit union's CDFI analyst was contacted by the Chief Strategic Officer and the analyst opened the data field for editing in the AMIS system. The Chief Strategic Officer made the correction in the AMIS system and submitted the corrected information. The Chief Strategic Officer has assigned CDFI reporting responsibilities to the Director of Strategy. Future submissions will be performed by the Director of Strategy and reviewed by the Chief Strategic Officer prior to submission.
