But that's less than 1% of the $42 million given to tornado victims last July.
Lawmakers asked auditor Mike Harmon's office to investigate claims of misdirected payments by the team Western Kentucky Tornado Relief Fund.
That fund collected private donations and then gave cash payments to victims.
The auditors report says the $239,000 in mistaken payments included duplicate payments, overpayments and payments sent to people who weren't eligible.
But that represented just one half of a percent of the money people receiving money.
In a separate review, the state Finance and Administration cabinet concluded that the funds were, quote, managed properly.
The inspector general said the funds were managed with complete transfer and C and in accordance with the law.
All of this comes just before the two year anniversary of the tornadoes, December 10th.
80 people died.
