      Quality Control (QC) Plan outlines the processes and procedures used by the
      nonprofit to monitor its compliance with FHA nonprofit program guidelines. A
      Finding refers to a determination of defect by the nonprofit agency. ii. Standard
      The nonprofit must develop and implement a QC Plan that explains its internal
      and external audit and monitoring procedures and must fully comply with the
      requirements in the Doing Business with FHA – Nonprofits section. The QC Plan
      must include the nonprofit’s reports, any reports of fraud, corrective action
      plans, and review procedures. The nonprofit must maintain and update its QC
      Plan as needed to ensure it remains fully compliant with all applicable FHA
      requirements. iii. Required Documentation The nonprofit must retain all QC review
      results, including all selection criteria, review documentation, Findings, and
      corrective actions taken to mitigate or resolve Findings. This documentation
      must be maintained for a minimum of three years. The nonprofit must make all
      documentation relating to its QC Plan available to FHA at any time upon request.
