FINDING: 2025-001 (Noncompliance) Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (“HUD”) Program Name: Supportive Housing for the Elderly CFDA #: 14.157 Federal Award Identification Number: 024-EE088-WAH Criteria The Organization is required to prepare a Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (“SEFA”) in accordance with the prescribed guidelines of the Uniform Guidance. In addition, 2 CFR Section 200.512(a) of the Uniform Guidance requires the reporting package and Data Collection Form to be submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse the earlier of 30 calendar days after the reports are received from the auditor or nine months after the Organization’s year end. Condition / Context The Data Collection Form was not submitted by its due date of November 11, 2024. The late report submission is a condition identified per examination of the audit report date, in comparison to the required submission deadline date of the Data Collection Form and reporting package. Questioned Costs None Cause Change by audit team to a new firm and miscommunication between the audit firm and the Organization regarding submission of Data Collection Form. Effect Such finding could impact subsequent federal funding. Identification as a Repeat Finding, if Applicable N/A Recommendation Improve the timeliness of financial information and submit the Data Collection Form by the due date. View of Responsible Official and Corrective Action The delay in the submission of the Data Collection Form was a direct result of the audit team moving to a new accounting firm and a miscommunication as to which firm was going to assist with the completion of the Data Collection Form. Management has taken steps to ensure that the Data Collection Form for the year-ended June 30, 2025 will be submitted timely. Upon identifying the late submission, management immediately completed the submission of the 2024 Data Collection Form and reporting package on August 12, 2025.
