APM 26-04: Audit Schedules Report for Issuers’ Audited Financial Statements

March 3, 2026

Summary

Ginnie Mae is introducing an Audit Schedules Report that replaces specific audit schedule attachments previously required under the HUD Consolidated Audit Guide. Issuers may begin using this new report as part of their annual audited financial statement submissions for fiscal years ending on or after December 31, 2025.

All Ginnie Mae Issuers are required to submit certain audit schedules as part of their annual audited financial statement submissions. The requirements for these audit schedules are generally found in the HUD Consolidated Audit Guide (Audit Guide). However, revised financial requirements were announced in APMs 22-08 and 22-09 which impact some of the audit schedules from the Audit Guide. In connection with these changes, Ginnie Mae is now announcing a new Audit Schedules Report which may be used in place of Attachments A, B, C, and D in Chapter 6 of the Audit Guide (as depicted in the chart below). Ginnie Mae will accept this newly announced Audit Schedules Report, and it may be completed and included as part of all audited financial statement submissions beginning with the fiscal year end date of December 31, 2025.​

As depicted in the chart below, certain attachments from the Audit Guide can be replaced with the new Ginnie Mae Audit Schedules Report.
