Subject: eZ-audit A-133 submissions - IMPORTANT
Dear Association,
On 12/12/03, the
Department issued an electronic announcement stating that
institutions that submit A-133s annual audits (public and
private, non-profit) were temporarily suspended from having to
submit their A-133s audits through the Department's eZ-Audit
on-line submission process.
It has recently
come to my attention that some school officials may be under
the impression that this meant that schools filing A-133s
audits would not have to submit any audits until the
Department informed the affected schools that eZ-Audit was
operational again. This is WRONG. I want to make it very
clear that schools required to file A-133 audits still need to
submit A-133 audits within 9 months from the end of the
school's fiscal year to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse.
Failure to submit to the Clearinghouse on time will constitute
a late audit submission. Late audits are considered a major
compliance issue with our office.
eZ-Audit will be
accepting A-133 audits in the very near future (possibly next
week). An electronic announcement will be sent informing all
schools of the new operational date for submitting A-133
audits. Schools with upcoming submission dates will have 60
days to submit their A-133 audit from the operational date
specified in the announcement (this is in ADDITION to
submitting audits to the Clearinghouse).
Please share this
information with the appropriate officials/offices on your
campus that are in charge of submitting school audits.
