During the audit, 1) noted $264,673 in payments originally classified as non-federal funding until auditors’ review identified that amount is federal funding (ALN 19.510). 2) Noted $5,717 in payments originally classified as non-federal funding until auditors’ review identified that amount is federal funding (ALN 93.042). A change to the SEFA was required to adjust the amounts reflected as federal awards. Questioned Costs: None Context: The initial SEFA provided understated federal awards by $264,673 (ALN 19.510) passed-through the United States Catholic Conference of Bishops/Migration and Refugee Services and understated federal awards by $5,717 (ALN 93.042) passed-through the Northwestern Illinois Area Agency on Aging. Cause: Lack of review of final calculation of the SEFA. Effect: Amounts inaccurately reflected on the SEFA. Repeat Finding: This finding is not a repeat finding. Recommendation: We recommend Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Rockford establish controls to evaluate grant agreements to capture funds identified as federal accurately and perform review of final SEFA to avoid any calculation related errors. Views of Responsible Officials: There is no disagreement with this finding.
