OIG-CA-25-026 - Recommendation 14-1

Treasury OIG follow up with New Jersey's management to confirm if the $339,154,192 noted as unsupported expenditures within the Aggregate Payments to Individual types can be supported. If support is not provided, Treasury OIG should recoup the funds or request that New Jersey management provide support for other eligible replacement expenses, not previously charged to CRF, that were incurred during the period of performance. Further, based on New Jersey's responsiveness to Treasury OIG's requests and its ability to provide sufficient documentation and/or replace unsupported transactions charged to CRF with valid expenditures, Castro recommends Treasury OIG determine the feasibility of conducting an audit for the Aggregate Payments to Individuals payment type.
