NOFA Q&A

Question

7/27/2016
Please clarify administrative vs. indirect expenses.

In regard to PSH - During the webinar, it was indicated that agencies could apply for both admin (up to 7%) and indirect (to cover some of the operational costs related to staffing (I assume mileage, phones, office space, etc). Since the audio was challenging, can you please clarify?

Answer

Please refer to 24 CFR Part 578 - subpart D for understanding of the eligible costs and the activity under which they are eligible. OPERATING does NOT mean operating a program - see in specific section 578.55 (a). Indirect costs are eligible as a cost under any activity & sub activity provided it is: 1) included in the description of the costs intended to be paid for with grant funds, and2) is in agreement with your agency's Cost Allocation Plan.
