We are engaged to audit a for profit entity with an RD Section 538 guaranteed loan.  HB-1-3565 is the ruling handbook and contains outdated (2011) audit guidance.  Does the guidance in HB-2-3560 now apply to Section 538 guarantees as well?  (538 is listed on the audit determination form) If so, I assume we just ignore all the non-applicable items?

Les Sparks

Dawn, the guidance for the 515 program in 3560 is not applicable to the 538 program. For the present, the 538 Guide should continue to be used, albeit with updated reports. Who knows when they will get around to updating it.

 

Good luck with the next week!!!

Thanks.  Just a further clarification.  The 538 guide requires non-major compliance report for programs between $500k-$2M and still requires report on AFHM – I’m assuming that is still correct? 

 

Thanks for your help!
