AUDITS
PART I: FEDERAL REQUIREMENTS
This part is applicable if the recipient is a State or local government or a non - profit organization as defined
in OMB Circular A -133, as revised.
In the event the recipient expends $500,000 or more in Federal awards during its fiscal year, the recipient
must have a single or program- specific audit conducted in accordance with the provisions of OMB Circular
A -133, as revised. The recipient agrees to provide a copy of the single audit to the Department's Single
Audit Unit and its contract manager. In the event the recipient expends less than $500,000 in Federal
awards during its fiscal year, the recipient agrees to provide certification to the Department's Single Audit
Unit and its contract manager that a single audit was not required. In determining the Federal awards
expended during its fiscal year, the recipient shall consider all sources of Federal awards, including Federal
resources received from the Department of Children & Families, Federal government (direct). other state
agencies, and other non -state entities. The determination of amounts of Federal awards expended should be
in accordance with guidelines established by OMB Circular A -133, as revised. An audit of the recipient

will meet the requirements of this part. In connection with the above audit requirements, the recipient shall

to subrecipients shall distinguish the subawards of incremental Recovery Act funds from
regular subawards under the existing program.
(d) Recipients agree to require their subrecipients to include on their SEFA information to specifically
identify Recovery Act funding similar to the requirements for the recipient SEFA described above. This

Accountability Office.

manager. In the event the recipient expends less than $500,000 in State financial assistance during its fiscal
year, the recipient agrees to provide certification to the Department's Single Audit Unit and its contract
manager that a single audit was not required. In determining the state financial assistance expended
during its fiscal year, the recipient shall consider all sources of state financial assistance, including state
financial assistance received from the Department of Children & Families, other state agencies, and other
nonstate entities. State financial assistance does not include Federal direct or pass - through awards and
resources received by a nonstate entity for Federal program matching requirements.
