Download as PDF ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 86 / Thursday, May 4, 2023 / Notices for certain benefits. Whether you are applying for a Federal, state, or local government benefit, you may need to provide the government agency your DHS-issued documentation showing you are covered by DED and/or showing you are authorized to work based on DED. Examples of such documents are: • Your current EAD with a DED Category Code of A11, even if your country of birth noted on the EAD does not reflect the DED designation for Hong Kong; or • Your Form I–797, Notice of Action, reflecting approval of your Form I–765; or • Your Form I–797 or Form I–797C, Notice of Action, reflecting approval or receipt of a past or current Form I–765. Check with the government agency requesting documentation regarding which documentation the agency will accept. Some state and local government agencies use the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) program to confirm the current immigration status of applicants for public benefits. While SAVE can verify that an individual is covered by DED, each state and local government agency’s procedures govern whether they will accept an unexpired EAD, Form I–797, or Form I–797C. If an agency accepts the type of DED-related document you present, such as a DEDbased EAD, the agency should accept your automatically extended EAD, regardless of the country of birth listed on the EAD. It may assist the agency if you: a. Give the agency a copy of the relevant Federal Register notice showing the EAD extension in addition to presenting your recent EAD with your A-Number or USCIS number; b. Explain that SAVE will be able to verify the continuation of DED using this information; and c. Ask the agency to submit a SAVE verification request with your information and follow through with additional verification steps, if necessary, to obtain a final SAVE response verifying your coverage under DED. You can also ask the agency to look for SAVE notices or contact SAVE if they have any questions about your immigration status or automatic extension of DED-related documentation. In most cases, SAVE provides an automated electronic response to benefit-granting agencies within seconds, but occasionally verification can be delayed. You can check the status of your SAVE verification by using CaseCheck at https://save.uscis.gov/casecheck/. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:12 May 03, 2023 Jkt 259001 CaseCheck is a free service that lets you follow the progress of your SAVE verification using your date of birth and one immigration identifier number (ANumber or USCIS number) or Verification case number. If an agency has denied your application based solely or in part on a SAVE response, the agency must offer you the opportunity to appeal the decision in accordance with the agency’s procedures. If the agency has received and acted on or will act on a SAVE verification and you do not believe the response is correct, the SAVE website, https://www.uscis.gov/save, has detailed information on how to make corrections or update your immigration record, make an appointment, or submit a written request to correct records.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice informs the public that HUD is seeking approval from OMB for the information collection described in Section A. ADDRESSES: A. Overview of Information Collection Title of Information Collection: Project Based Vouchers (PBV) Online Form. OMB Approval Number: OMB: 2577– 0296. Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection. Form Number: HUD is developing a standardized electronic system that will collect this information. Within the scope of this collection, HUD requests the information in this notice from PO 00000 Frm 00136 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Public Housing Authorities (PHA) participating in the PBV program. Description of the need for the information and proposed use: PHAs apply for funding to assist low-income families to lease housing. One of the programs through which PHAs provide housing assistance is the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program, a tenant-based rental assistance program. This program operates by providing vouchers that cover a portion of the contract rent for a unit. Some PHAs project-base their vouchers (the rental assistance is connected to a unit, not a family). Project-based vouchers (PBVs) are becoming a larger percentage of PHAs overall HCV portfolios, rising from just over 110,000 in 2016 to approximately 307,000 at the end of 2022. The PBV portfolio is expected to grow even more with the on-going conversion of up to 455,000 public housing units to project-based assistance under the Congressionally authorized Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD). HUD currently collects information on individual participants in the HCV program who are in PBV units and Project Based Certificate (PBC) housing through the PIC system. In addition, HUD collects aggregate information on the total number of PBVs under contract at the PHA level. HUD currently does not systematically collect information on the project or development level for PBVs. This leaves a gap in HUD’s information collection of PBVs between the individual tenant data and the aggregated PHA data. HUD does not systematically collect information on the development or project level, including the number of units at PBV projects, what exceptions apply, their rents, the terms of contract, and numerous other potential data points. This creates a challenge for monitoring, tracking and analyzing PBV projects, and limits HUD’s ability to respond to requests for information on the PBV program from Congress and other sources. Additionally, it prevents HUD from having data with which to make informed decisions on risk-mitigation strategies with respect to PBVs. Potential risks are particularly heightened in the case of RAD PBV where a PHA-owned property is required to have an independent entity that performs inspections and determines rent adjustments. Currently, HUD has limited information about RAD PBV properties after conversion and is unable to adequately monitor their long-term viability. Through this collection, HUD is requiring the submission of project-level data on all E:\FR\FM\04MYN1.SGM 04MYN1
