Reporting of Matching Program In accordance with Public Law 100– 503, the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 1988 as amended, and OMB Bulletin 89–22, ‘‘Instructions on Reporting Computer Matching Programs to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), Congress and the Public,’’ copies of this notice and report are being provided to the U.S. House Committee on Oversight Government Reform, the U.S. Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, and OMB. Authority HUD has authority to collect and review mortgage data pursuant to the National Housing Act, as amended, 12 U.S.C. 1701 et seq., and related laws. This computer matching will be conducted pursuant to Public Law 100– 503, ‘‘The Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 1988,’’ as amended, and OMB Circulars A–129 (Managing Federal Credit Programs). One of the purposes of all Executive departments and agencies is to implement efficient management practices for Federal Credit Programs. OMB Circular A–129 was issued under the authority of the Budget and Accounting Act of 1921, as amended; the Budget and Accounting Act of 1950, as amended; the Debt Collection Act of 1982, as amended by the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996; section 2653 of Public Law 98–369; the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, as amended; the Federal Debt Collection Procedures Act of 1990, the Chief Financial Officers Act of 1990, as amended; Executive Order 8248; the Cash Management Improvement Act Amendments of 1992; and pre-existing common law authority to charge interest on debts and to offset payments to collect debts administratively. Objectives To Be Met by the Matching Program The objective of this matching program is to give program agencies access to a system that allows them to prescreen applicants for loans made, or loans guaranteed, by the Federal Government to ascertain if the applicant is delinquent in paying a debt owed to or guaranteed by the Federal Government. As part of this process, PO 00000 Frm 00061 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 HUD will be provided access to DOJ’s debtor data for prescreening purposes. The use of CAIVRS will allow HUD to better monitor its credit programs and to reduce the credit extended to individuals with outstanding delinquencies on debts owed to HUD and other Federal agencies. DOJ expects that its participation in CAIVRS will further other Federal agencies’ efforts to reduce credit risks through loan prescreening, and prompt student loan defaulters, who are denied credit by other Federal agencies, to make arrangements to repay their defaulted student loans. Under this computer matching program, HUD/CAIVRS receives limited information on borrowers who have defaulted on loans administered by participating Federal agencies each month. The information includes: Borrower ID Number—The Social Security Number (SSN), Employer Identification Number (EIN) or Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) of the borrower on a delinquent or defaulted Federal direct loan or Federally guaranteed loan. Federal agency personnel and authorized lenders must enter a user authorization code followed by either a SSN or EIN to access CAIVRS. Only the following information is returned or displayed: • Yes/No as to whether the holder of that SSN/EIN is in default on a Federal loan; and • If Yes, then CAIVRS provides to the lender: Æ Loan case number; Æ Record type (claim, default, foreclosure, or judgment); Æ Agency administering the loan program; Æ Phone number at the applicable Federal agency (to call to clear up the default); and Æ Confirmation Code associated with the query. Federal law mandates the suspension of the processing of applications for Federal credit benefits (such as government-insured loans) if the applicants are delinquent on Federal or Federally guaranteed debt. Processing may continue only after the borrower satisfactorily resolves the debt (e.g., pays in full or renegotiates a new payment plan). To remove a CAIVRS sanction, the borrower must contact the Federal agency that reported their SSN or EIN to HUD/CAIVRS using the information provided.

Reporting of Matching Program

    In accordance with Public Law 100-503, the Computer Matching and 
Privacy Protection Act of 1988 as amended, and OMB Bulletin 89-22, 
``Instructions on Reporting Computer Matching Programs to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB), Congress and the Public,'' copies of this 
notice and report are being provided to the U.S. House Committee on 
Oversight Government Reform, the U.S. Senate Homeland Security and 
Governmental Affairs Committee, and OMB.

Authority

    HUD has authority to collect and review mortgage data pursuant to 
the National Housing Act, as amended, 12 U.S.C. 1701 et seq., and 
related laws. This computer matching will be conducted pursuant to 
Public Law 100-503, ``The Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act 
of 1988,'' as amended, and OMB Circulars A-129 (Managing Federal Credit 
Programs). One of the purposes of all Executive departments and 
agencies is to implement efficient management practices for Federal 
Credit Programs. OMB Circular A-129 was issued under the authority of 
the Budget and Accounting Act of 1921, as amended; the Budget and 
Accounting Act of 1950, as amended; the Debt Collection Act of 1982, as 
amended by the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996; section 2653 of 
Public Law 98-369; the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, as amended; 
the Federal Debt Collection Procedures Act of 1990, the Chief Financial 
Officers Act of 1990, as amended; Executive Order 8248; the Cash 
Management Improvement Act Amendments of 1992; and pre-existing common 
law authority to charge interest on debts and to offset payments to 
collect debts administratively.

Objectives To Be Met by the Matching Program

    The objective of this matching program is to give program agencies 
access to a system that allows them to prescreen applicants for loans 
made, or loans guaranteed, by the Federal Government to ascertain if 
the applicant is delinquent in paying a debt owed to or guaranteed by 
the Federal Government. As part of this process, HUD will be provided 
access to DOJ's debtor data for prescreening purposes.
    The use of CAIVRS will allow HUD to better monitor its credit 
programs and to reduce the credit extended to individuals with 
outstanding delinquencies on debts owed to HUD and other Federal 
agencies. DOJ expects that its participation in CAIVRS will further 
other Federal agencies' efforts to reduce credit risks through loan 
prescreening, and prompt student loan defaulters, who are denied credit 
by other Federal agencies, to make arrangements to repay their 
defaulted student loans.
    Under this computer matching program, HUD/CAIVRS receives limited 
information on borrowers who have defaulted on loans administered by 
participating Federal agencies each month. The information includes: 
Borrower ID Number--The Social Security Number (SSN), Employer 
Identification Number (EIN) or Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) of 
the borrower on a delinquent or defaulted Federal direct loan or 
Federally guaranteed loan. Federal agency personnel and authorized 
lenders must enter a user authorization code followed by either a SSN 
or EIN to access CAIVRS. Only the following information is returned or 
displayed:
     Yes/No as to whether the holder of that SSN/EIN is in 
default on a Federal loan; and
     If Yes, then CAIVRS provides to the lender:
    [cir] Loan case number;
    [cir] Record type (claim, default, foreclosure, or judgment);
    [cir] Agency administering the loan program;
    [cir] Phone number at the applicable Federal agency (to call to 
clear up the default); and
    [cir] Confirmation Code associated with the query.
    Federal law mandates the suspension of the processing of 
applications for Federal credit benefits (such as government-insured 
loans) if the applicants are delinquent on Federal or Federally 
guaranteed debt. Processing may continue only after the borrower 
satisfactorily resolves the debt (e.g., pays in full or renegotiates a 
new payment plan). To remove a CAIVRS sanction, the borrower must 
contact the Federal agency that reported their SSN or EIN to HUD/CAIVRS 
using the information provided.

Records To Be Matched

    HUD will use records from the Single Family Default Monitoring 
System (SFDMS/F42D (72 FR 65350 November 20, 2007)), and Single Family 
Insurance

[[Page 43631]]

System--Claims Subsystem (CLAIMS/A43C (72 FR 65348 November 20, 2007)), 
as combined in CAIVRS to provide an up-to-date dataset to be used in 
records matching. SFDMS maintains data on mortgages that are 90 or more 
days delinquent. The Mortgagee or Servicer must submit a Monthly 
Delinquent Loan Report (HUD-92068-A) to HUD on a monthly basis until 
the mortgage status has been completed by all Mortgagees, or is 
otherwise terminated or deleted. Mortgagees and Servicers provide 
default data to HUD via Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) or using the 
Internet via FHA Connection, through which the data is sorted, pre-
screened, key entered, edited, and otherwise processed. Reports are 
generated for HUD Headquarters and Field Offices to review.
    CLAIMS provides automated receipt, tracking and processing of form 
HUD-27011, Single Family Application for Insurance Benefits. CLAIMS 
provides online update and inquiry capability to Single Family 
Insurance and Claims databases, and to cumulative history files. Claim 
payments are made by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) via an HDS 
platform (IBM mainframe/Treasury interface) on a daily basis.
    The DOJ will provide HUD with debtor files. These files are 
maintained in a Department wide DOJ system of records entitled, Debt 
Collection Enforcement System, JUSTICE/DOJ-016. The notice for this 
system of records, including a routine use permitting this disclosure, 
was published in the Federal Register on February 21, 2012 (77 FR 9965-
9968). The DOJ debtor files contain information on individuals or 
corporations with unsatisfied judgments.

    HUD will notify individuals at the time of application for a HUD/
FHA mortgage. HUD and DOJ published a notice concerning routine use 
disclosures in the Federal Register to inform individuals that a 
computer match may be performed to determine a loan applicant's credit 
status with the Federal Government. The Privacy Act also requires that 
a copy of each Computer Matching Agreement entered into with a 
recipient agency shall be available upon request to the public.
