In fiscal year (FY) 2019, we audited nine local Postal Service units in eight different districts that addressed issues related to local purchases and payments. One of the issues we tested was exceeding the $1,000 invoice limit by using multiple no-fee money orders for local purchases and payments. These reports resulted in 11 recommendations to district management to reiterate policies and procedures, train applicable employees, and provide tax reportable documentation to vendors receiving payments. Our objective this time was to evaluate whether corrective actions taken by the Postal Service, in response to those reports, sufficiently addressed the issue of exceeding the $1,000 invoice limit by using multiple no-fee money orders for local purchases and payments.
