Auditor Considerations: The Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Program (Rebroadcast)

Navigating single audits that include CSLFRF COVID-19 relief funding

Many auditors will have to audit the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Program for the first time in 2022.

The $350 billion program is one of the largest federal programs subject to single audit ever, with over 30,000 recipients.

Although funding went primarily to states, local government, and tribal entities, those recipients could potentially pass the funding down to not-for-profits or even for-profit entities.

Adding to the challenge is that many small local government recipients of this funding have not had to undergo an audit of federal financial assistance in the past.

This two-hour webcast by the Governmental Audit Quality Center (GAQC) is intended to help auditors having to address this program in their single audits.
