What needs to be sent to DHS?
We need to receive one complete audit reporting package (and only require one copy) in order for us to consider the agency to have fulfilled the contract requirement of providing us with an audit report that meets our standards. This one copy of the reporting package can either be sent to us via U.S. mail or electronically as a PDF document. This package will vary somewhat depending on the type of audit. For single audits, we require all items that are required elements of the federal reporting package. For all other audits, we expect one copy of each of the following items: • Opinion on the financial statements • Financial statements and notes thereto • Report(s) on internal controls and compliance and other report elements required by the Provider Agency Audit Guide and the State Single Audit Guidelines o Management letter or similar document conveying auditor’s comments issued as a result of the audit, if applicable • Management’s responses to all of the auditor’s recommendations fo
