VERIFICATION PROCEDURES. DHS-USCIS, upon receipt of an immigration status verification case from CA-DSS regarding a Benefit Applicant for TANF and SNAP, agrees to provide CA-DSS through the SAVE Program the following information pertaining to the individual: SAVE Program case verification number, name, date and country of birth, date of entry, and immigration status data. The SAVE Program may also provide information regarding periods of employment authorization and the name, address, and social security number of the Benefit Applicant’s sponsor, if any, if requested by CA-DSS. See Section E for details. DHS-USCIS agrees to provide CA-DSS with instructional materials required for the proper use of the SAVE Program. These instructional materials address the policies and procedures governing use of the program, including (1) program access, (2) verification procedures, (3) disclosure of information and privacy protections, and (4) non- discrimination requirements. DHS-USCIS agrees to provide CA-DSS with a sufficient number of primary verification user codes to assure the effective implementation of this Agreement. DHS-USCIS agrees to provide CA-DSS with the name, address, and telephone number of appropriate points of contact (POC) within DHS-USCIS, or its contractor organization, to answer any questions about the program, including its proper use and billing issues. CA-DSS agrees to ensure, and report completion of, the proper training of its employees and contractors in the use of the SAVE program, to ensure that its employees and contractors will complete all verification procedures necessary to determine immigration status before making any adverse determination against a Benefit Applicant for reasons relating to the Benefit Applicant’s immigration status, to provide appropriate monitoring of CA-DSS’s use of the SAVE program to protect against misuse and abuse, and to respond in a timely manner to possible misuse of the program. To initiate a SAVE Program case, CA-DSS agrees to provide the alien registration number, I-94 number, or other immigration identifier or document of each benefit applicant whose immigration status must be verified to determine eligibility for TANF and SNAP administered by CA-DSS. If the SAVE Program cannot determine an individual’s records, requires additional information to provide an accurate response, or provides CA-DSS with information that does not match the status claimed by the individual, CA-DSS agrees that it will conduct additional verification ...

VERIFICATION PROCEDURES. ED may not suspend, terminate, reduce, or make a final denial of assistance under the Title IV Student Financial Assistance Programs or take other adverse action against an individual as a result of the information produced by this matching program, unless (1) ED independently verifies the information, or ED's Data Integrity Board determines, in accordance with guidance issued by the Director of the OMB, that: (a) the information is limited to identification and amount of benefits paid by ED under a Federal benefit program; and (b) there is a high degree of confidence that the information provided to ED is accurate; (2) such individual has received a notice stating the results of the match and stating that the individual has at least 30 days to provide documentation to the institution to contest the results of the match; and (3) the subsequent 30-day notice period has expired. The notice will state that DHS-USCIS has not verified the applicant’s immigration status commensurate with the requirements of eligibility for federal student aid and that the applicant must provide appropriate documentation to the institution in order to verify the applicant’s immigration status. Applicants for, or recipients of, assistance under the Title IV Student Financial Assistance Programs may not have their benefits suspended, terminated, reduced, denied, or otherwise adversely affected as a result of information produced by this matching program until third step procedures as specified by ED have been used to independently verify such information. These third step procedures are described as follows: • Under 34 C.F.R. 668.33(a)(2), applicants for assistance under the Title IV Student Financial Assistance Programs must document their immigration status to prove their eligibility. Under current policy guidelines, if DHS-USCIS is unable to verify the applicant’s immigration status through automated initial or second step verification, institutions may not determine that the applicant is in an eligible immigration status for purposes of receiving federal financial aid unless they independently verify this eligibility, by visual inspection and identification of the immigration documents representing the applicant’s current immigration status and submission of a completed paper or electronic Form G-845, along with copies of the DHS-USCIS provided documentation for manual review by DHS-USCIS of an applicant’s immigration records before disbursing Title IV Student Financial Assista...
VERIFICATION PROCEDURES. SSA verifies the name/SSN combinations in its SORs. SSA will compare the identity of information in its records for the matched individual with the NDNH information and then determine whether the information in the NDNH is consistent with the information in SSA’s files. If the information is not consistent, SSA will contact the individual to confirm the information provided in the NDNH. If the individual is unable to confirm the information, SSA will contact the employer shown by the NDNH QW information to confirm the information shown by the comparison results, and the appropriate source agency to confirm the UI payment information. SSA will independently verify the NDNH information, investigate, and confirm information that is used as a basis for an adverse action against an individual, as described in 5 U.S.C. § 552a(p)(1) and (2).

VERIFICATION PROCEDURES. Before an AE may take any adverse action based on the information received from the match, the individual will be permitted to provide the necessary information or documentation to verify eligibility information. When an AE determines that an individual is ineligible for an IAP based on the information provided by the match, and that information is inconsistent with information provided on the streamlined eligibility application or otherwise by an Applicant or Enrollee, the AE will comply with applicable law and will notify the Applicant, or Enrollee of the match findings and provide the following information: (1) The AE received information that indicates the individual is ineligible for an IAP; and (2) the Applicant, or Enrollee has a specified number of days from the date of the notice to contest the determination that the Applicant or Enrollee is not eligible for the relevant IAPs.
VERIFICATION PROCEDURES. ED may not suspend, terminate, reduce, or make a final denial of any financial assistance or payment under Title IV of the HEA to an individual, or take other adverse action against such individual as a result of information produced by this matching program until an institution participating in a program under Title IV of the HEA has asked the applicant to produce evidence of Veteran status or allows the applicant to file as a dependent student. Under the matching program, individual applicant records are matched at the time ED processes applications for Title IV, HEA Program assistance. ED will only send the records of applicants who reported that they are Veterans to VA for matching with the BIRLS System. As a result of an unsuccessful match (VA values 2, 3, or 4), ED notifies the applicant and the applicant’s educational institution that VA has not confirmed the applicant’s Veteran status via the application output document that is sent both to the institution and the applicant. If VA cannot confirm Veteran status, the applicant must provide proof of Veteran status to the institution if that is the sole reason the student qualified for independent status. For an applicant whose Veteran status is questioned, but he or she qualified as an independent student under criteria other than Veteran status, no further action is required of the applicant. Important features of this match are the volume and speed of the system. The system is designed to yield match results from applicant data in a short time frame so that applicants have information available to make informed decisions about the Title IV, HEA program assistance available at the institutions where they applied. In fact, the match is so efficient that up to 919 applications per day have been processed in peak months. The applicant is determined to be the best source of information on the validity of notice results. Consequently, ED’s notification process is highly automated and requires compressed verification procedures because it is not possible to intervene until after the output document (the Student Aid Report (SAR)/ Institutional Student Information Record - (ISIR)) is issued and challenged by the student. Individual applicants are required personally to resolve match discrepancies. Indeed, the OMB guidelines anticipate such a situation when they state: “It would be of dubious utility to apply the verification requirements equally to all matches and argue that a match that results in an advers...
