How much money USACA get from the ICC anyway?

Last I heard they were going bankrupt and ICC had to stop their funding because of irregularity in their financial accounts. Don't know what happened after that but it wasn't a hunky dory situation for them.

The USACA gets more than other associate nations such as Nepal and Papua New Guinea, because the United States is a "priority area" for the ICC. I am not sure about the exact allocation, but it is definitely more than $1 million per year (Nepal receives around $200,000 per year). The USACA uses most of this amount to "buy" players from West Indies and South Asia. A large part of their national team players are former U-19 players from West Indies and Pakistan, as well as a few first-class and international players. And a significant share of the funds get stolen, and that is the reason why they are facing bankruptcy.
Not sure if it's a correct assessment.

I remember reading a USACA bankruptcy report last month or so and it looked like ICC stopped USACA funding for like 1-2 quarters, mainly due to their accounting %uckups and the amount was more or less the same as $200K.

This is a recent report.
