DOMESTIC ASSISTANCE ecovery Act: Audit of Arkansas Development Finance Authority's Payment Under 1602 Program
U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s FY 2016 Compliance with the Improper Payments Information Act (IPIA), as amended by the Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Act P.L. 111-204 (IPERA), and the Improper Payments
The IPERIA requires agencies and entities, such as the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), with improper payment estimates that do not meet the statutory thresholds to report an estimate of the annual amount and rate of improper payments, as well as reduction targets in their annual Agency Financial Reports (AFRs) or Performance and Accountability Reports (PARs) per M-15-02 Part IA 9 Step 4c (page 16). These agencies also are required to conduct a risk assessment to identify programs/activities that may be susceptible to significant improper payments. If an agency determines that it is not at high risk for significant improper payments, then risk assessments are required every 3 years. If no programs are at risk for significant improper payments, the other requirements on annual reduction targets, corrective action plans, etc. are not applicable. Additionally, small agencies should have a payment recapture program in place.

This is our final audit report conducted in support of OIG’s oversight role for the planning and implementation of the 2020 Census. The audit’s original objective was to assess the risk that the Address Canvassing Test would not accomplish its stated goals. However, after we began audit fieldwork, the Bureau removed the term “goals” from the test plan. As a result, we modified our audit objective to review the Address Canvassing Test’s cost and schedule, as well as in-field and in-office components of the test.
Civil money penalty (CMP) collections received by the Minnesota Department of Human Services (State agency) during our audit period totaled $592,000. However, the State agency reimbursed nursing facilities $114,000, or only about 20 percent of the amount collected, for expenditures incurred during the same time period. Although expenditures incurred during the audit period were generally allowable, we identified claims of $5,000 for nursing facility staff wages and supplies that were already supported by other Federal and State funding sources.
