of the renewal of the computer matching program between the U.S.

and VA Data Integrity Boards approve a new computer matching agreement 
(CMA), the computer matching program will begin on the effective date 
as specified in the CMA and as indicated in paragraph 5 of this notice.
    In accordance with the Privacy Act and applicable OMB guidance, the 
following information is provided:
    1. Names of Participating Agencies.
    The U.S. Department of Education and the U.S. Department of 
Veterans Affairs.
    2. Purpose of the Match.
    The purpose of this matching program between ED and VA is to verify

States Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, or Coast Guard; and (B) was 
released under a condition other than dishonorable.'' (20 U.S.C. 
1087vv(c)(1)). Under section 480(d)(1)(D) of the HEA, an applicant who 
is a veteran (as defined in section 480(c)(1)) is considered an 
independent student for purposes of Title IV, HEA program assistance 
eligibility, and therefore does not have to provide parental income and 
asset information to apply for Title IV, HEA program assistance. (20 
U.S.C. 1087vv(d)(1)(D)).
    3. Authority for Conducting the Matching Program.
    ED is authorized to participate in the matching program under

disclose this information to VA pursuant to routine use no. 16, as
