# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The 2022 Supplement (2 CFR part 200, subpart F, and appendix XI to Part 200) adds five new programs (that are funded by the American Rescue Plan Act) and provides updates on many other programs, where necessary. In total, the 2022 Supplement contains audit guidance for 235 individual programs and 48 clusters of programs from 22 Federal agencies. The 2022 Supplement is a continuation of efforts to maximize the value of grant funding by applying a risk-based, data-driven framework that balances compliance requirements with demonstrating successful results. It requires a review for performance reporting for 63 programs.

As part of the development of the audit guidance contained in the Supplement, OMB shared the draft language developed by the agencies with recipient and audit stakeholders, including the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), the National Association of State Auditors, Controllers and Treasurers (NASACT), the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO), and agency Inspector General offices for comments. The comments were reviewed, adjudicated, and addressed by the relevant agencies and OMB. All necessary changes are reflected in the final published version.

Deidre A. Harrison,

Acting Controller.
