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/.

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.

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
