SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. General
The Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a), as
amended, establishes the conditions
under which computer matching
involving the Federal government could
be performed and adds certain
protections for individuals applying for
and receiving Federal benefits. Section
7201 of the Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101–
508) further amended the Privacy Act
regarding protections for such
individuals.
The Privacy Act, as amended,
regulates the use of computer matching
by Federal agencies when records in a
system of records are matched with
other Federal, State, or local government
records. Among other things, it requires
Federal agencies involved in computer
matching programs to:
(1) Negotiate written agreements with
the other agency for agencies
participating in the matching programs;
(2) Obtain the approval of the match
agreement by the Data Integrity Boards
(DIB) of the participating Federal
agencies;
(3) Furnish detailed reports about
matching programs to Congress and
OMB;
(4) Notify applicants and beneficiaries
that their records are subject to
matching;
(5) Verify match findings before
reducing, suspending, terminating or
denying an individual’s benefits or
payments.
B. OPM Computer Matches Subject to
the Privacy Act
We have taken action to ensure that
all of OPM’s computer matching
programs comply with the requirements
of the Privacy Act, as amended.

Notice of Computer Matching Program,
Office of Personnel Management (OPM)
With the Social Security
Administration (SSA)
A. Participating Agencies
OPM and SSA
B. Purpose of the Matching Program
The purpose of this agreement is to
establish the conditions under which
SSA agrees to disclose tax return
information to OPM. The SSA records
will be used in a matching program in
which OPM will match SSA’s tax return
records with OPM’s records on
disability retirees under age 60, disabled
adult child survivors, certain retirees in
receipt of a supplemental benefit under
the Federal Employees Retirement
System (FERS), and certain annuitants
receiving a discontinued service
retirement benefit under the Civil
Service Retirement System (CSRS). By
law, these annuitants and survivors are
limited in the amount they can earn and
still retain benefits paid to them. In the
case of the discontinued service
annuitants, retirement benefits cease
upon re-employment in Federal service.
OPM will use the SSA data to determine
continued eligibility for benefits being
paid.
C. Authority for Conducting the
Matching Program
Chapters 83 and 84 of title 5 of the
United States Code provide the basis for
computing annuities under CSRS and
FERS, respectively, and require release
of information by SSA to OPM in order
to administer data exchanges involving
military service performed by an
individual after December 31, 1956. The
CSRS requirement is codified at section
8332(j) of title 5 of the United States
Code; the FERS requirement is codified
at section 8422(e)(4) of title 5 of the
United States Code. The responsibilities
of SSA and OPM with respect to
information obtained pursuant to this
agreement are also in accordance with
the following: the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C.
552a), as amended; section 307 of the
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of
1982 (Pub. L. 97–253), codified at
section 8332 of title 5 of the United
States Code; section 1306(a) of title 42
of the United States Code; and section
6103(1)(11) of title 26 of the United
States Code.
D. Categories of Records and
Individuals Covered by the Match
SSA will disclose data from its MBR
file (60–0090, Master Beneficiary
Record, SSA/OEEAS) and MEF file (60–
0059, Earnings Recording and SelfEmployment Income System, SSA/
