the Social Security Administration

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to subsection (o) of the Privacy Act of
1974, as amended, (5 U.S.C. 552a), the
DMDC and SSA have concluded an
agreement to conduct a computer
matching program between the agencies.
The purpose of this agreement is to
verify eligibility of individual’s of
Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
payments and the entitlement of
individuals to Special Veterans Benefits
(SVB).
The parties to this agreement have
determined that a computer matching
program is the most efficient,
expeditious, and effective means of
obtaining the information needed by the
SSA under the Social Security Act to
verify the eligibility/entitlement of and
to verify payment/benefit amounts for
certain SSI and SVB recipients/
beneficiaries. Conducting such a manual
match would impose a considerable
administrative burden, constitute a
greater intrusion of the individual’s
privacy and would result in additional
delay in the eventual SSI payment and
SVB benefit recovery of unauthorized or
erroneous payment.
A copy of the computer matching
agreement between SSA and DMDC is
available upon request to the public.
Requests should be submitted to the
address caption above or to the Office of
Payment Policy, Office of Income
Security Programs, Office of Disability
and Income Security Programs, Social
Security Administration, 0106 RRCC,

Computer Matching Program Between
the Social Security Administration and
the Department of Defense for
Verification of Social Security
Supplemental Security Income
Payments and Special Veterans Benefits
A. Participating Agencies:
Participants in this computer matching
program are the Social Security
Administration (SSA) and the Defense
Manpower Data Center (DMDC) of the
Department of Defense (DoD). The SSA
is the source agency, i.e., the activity
disclosing the records for the purpose of
the match. The DMDC is the specific
recipient activity or matching agency,
i.e., the agency that actually performs
the computer matching.
B. Purpose of the Match: The Social
Security Act requires SSA to verify,
with independent or collateral sources,
information provided to SSA by
recipients of SSI payments and
beneficiaries of SVB benefits. The SSI
and SVB recipient/beneficiaries
provides information about eligibility/
entitlement factors and other relevant
information. SSA obtains additional
information as necessary before making
any determinations of eligibility/
payment or entitlement/benefit amounts
or adjustments thereto. With respect to
military retirement payments to SSI
recipients and SVB beneficiaries who
are retired members of the Uniformed
Services or their survivors, SSA
proposes to accomplish this task by
computer matching with the DOD.
C. Authority for Conducting the
Match: The legal authority for the
matching program is contained in
sections 1631(e)(1)(B), (f), and 806(b) of
the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C.
1383(e)(1)(B), (f) and 1006(b)).
D. Records to be Matched: The
systems of records maintained by the
PO 00000
Frm 00010
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
respective agencies under the Privacy
Act of 1974, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a,
from which records will be disclosed for
the purpose of this computer match are
as follows:
SSA will use records from a system of
records identified as 60–0103, entitled
‘‘Supplemental Security Income Record
and Special Veterans Benefits, SSA /
ODSSIS’’, last published in the Federal
Register at 71 FR 1830, January 11,
2006.
DoD will use the system of records
identified as DMDC 01, entitled,
‘‘Defense Manpower Data Center Data
Base’’, published 73 FR 5820, January
31, 2008. Attachment 5 is a copy of the
system notice with the appropriate
routine use, i.e., RU l (e) (l) annotated.
E. Description of Computer Matching
Program: SSA, as the source agency,
will provide DMDC with an electronic
file which contains the data elements.
Upon receipt of the electronic file,
DMDC, as the recipient agency, will
perform a computer match using all
nine digits of the SSN of the SSI/SVB
file against a DMDC database which
contains the data elements. The DMDC
database consists of extracts of
personnel and pay records of retired
members of the uniformed services or
their survivors. The ‘‘hits’’ or matches
will be furnished to SSA. SSA is
responsible for verifying and
determining that the data on the DMDC
electronic reply file are consistent with
the SSA source file and resolving any
discrepancies or inconsistencies on an
individual basis. SSA will also be
responsible for making final
determinations as to eligibility for/
entitlement to, or amount of payments/
benefits, their continuation or needed
adjustments, or any recovery of
overpayments as a result of the match.
1. The electronic file provided by SSA
will contain approximately 8.6 million
records extracted from the SSR/SVB.
2. The electronic DMDC database
contains records on approximately 2.3
million retired uniformed service
members or their survivors.
F. Inclusive Dates of the Matching
Program: This computer matching
program is subject to public comment
and review by Congress and the Office
of Management and Budget. If the
mandatory 30 day period for comment
has expired and no comments are
received and if no objections are raised
by either Congress or the Office of
Management and Budget within 40 days
of being notified of the proposed match,
the computer matching program
becomes effective and the respective
agencies may begin the exchange at a
mutually agreeable time and thereafter
on a quarterly basis. By agreement
E:\FR\FM\17MRN1.SGM
17MRN1
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 50 / Tuesday, March 17, 2009 / Notices
between SSA and DMDC, the matching
program will be in effect for 18 months
with an option to renew for 12
additional months unless one of the
parties to the agreement advises the
other by written request to terminate or
modify the agreement.
