SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a), as
amended, provides for certain
protections for individuals applying for
and receiving federal benefits. The law
governs 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. The Privacy Act requires
agencies involved in computer matching
programs to:
1. Negotiate written agreements with
the other agency or agencies
participating in the matching programs;
2. Provide notification to applicants
and beneficiaries that their records are
subject to matching;
3. Verify information produced by
such matching program before reducing,
making a final denial of, suspending, or
terminating an individual’s benefits or
payments;
4. Publish notice of the computer
matching program in the Federal
Register;
5. Furnish reports about the matching
program to Congress and OMB; and
6. Obtain the approval of the
matching agreement by the Data
Integrity Board of any federal agency
participating in a matching program.
This matching program meets these
requirements.
B. Purpose of the Matching Program
The purpose of the matching program
is to provide new hire, quarterly wage
(QW), and unemployment insurance
(UI) information from OCSE’s National
Directory of New Hires (NDNH) to state
agencies administering TANF for the
purpose of verifying the eligibility of
adult TANF recipients and applicants
and, if ineligible, to take such action as
may be authorized by law and
regulation. The State Agencies may also
use the NDNH information for the
purpose of updating the applicants and
recipients’ reported participation in
work activities and updating contact
information maintained by the state
agencies administering TANF.
