Federal Reports

KPMG LLP (KPMG), under contract with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of Inspector General, conducted an integrated audit of DHS’ fiscal year (FY) 2017 consolidated financial statements and internal control over financial reporting. KPMG issued an unmodified (clean) opinion over the Department’s financial statements, reporting that they present fairly, in all material respects, DHS’ financial position as of September 30, 2017. However, KPMG identified six significant deficiencies in internal control, two of which are considered material weaknesses. Consequently, KPMG issued an adverse opinion on DHS’ internal control over financial reporting. KPMG also reported instances in which DHS did not comply with four laws and regulations. DHS concurred with all of the recommendations.

Under a contract monitored by NCUA OIG, KPMG, an independent certified public accounting firm, performed an audit of NCUA’s closing package schedule as of September 30, 2017. KPMG’s audit report for the FY 2017 Consolidated Financial Statements of the U. S. Government includes an opinion on the closing package schedule, internal control over financial reporting specific to the closing package financial statements, and compliance and other matters specific to the closing package schedule.
