Xxxxxxx of the Matching Program. The Privacy Act, as amended by the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 1988, provides that no record contained in a system of records (SOR) may be disclosed for use in a computer matching program, except pursuant to a written agreement containing specified provisions. 5 U.S.C. § 552a(o).

Information is also obtained, as necessary, in order to assure that SSI benefits are only provided to eligible individuals (or eligible spouses) and that the amounts of such benefits are correct. Section 1631(e)(1)(B) of the Social Security Act (Act) (42 X.X.X § 0000(x)(0)(X)). The Commissioner of Social Security may review DI benefits to determine if a reduction in benefits is required based on wages or self- employment.Section 224(h) of the Act (42 U.S.C. § 424a(h)).

Xxxxxxx of the Matching Program. The Privacy Act of 1974, as amended by the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act of 1988, hereinafter “Privacy Act,” requires that each matching agreement specify the purpose and legal authority for conducting the matching program. 5 U.S.C. § 552a (o)(1)(A). The purpose of the matching program is to assist the state agency in administering the Unemployment Compensation (UC) benefits program including ensuring timely and accurate UC benefit payments, ensuring program integrity, assessing and collecting unemployment tax contributions, and fulfilling federal reporting requirements. The state agency will transmit to OCSE the name and Social Security number (SSN) of each UC applicant or beneficiary. OCSE will provide the state agency with new hire and quarterly wage information from the National Directory of New Hires (NDNH) pertaining to the individuals and their employers. The state agency will use the NDNH comparison results to establish or verify the individuals’ eligibility for benefits or continuing compliance with statutory and regulatory requirements governing the UC program. The NDNH comparison results will enable the state agency to: • Verify wages paid to applicants and beneficiaries to determine initial and continuing eligibility for benefits • Prevent, detect, and collect improper UC benefit payments by identifying beneficiaries who have unreported wages and those who have returned to work and fraudulently continue to claim benefits • Locate individuals with outstanding UC overpayments or “skip-tracing” Pursuant to additional U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) requirements to administer UC benefit programs, states may use NDNH results to perform additional tasks. With the expansion of responsibilities required by state workforce agencies under their mandate, such as jobs placement and tax compliance enforcement, the uses approved for NDNH have expanded beyond determining eligibility and amounts of benefits. While the following list is not exhaustive of all possible purposes, it provides additional guidance to states on appropriate uses for, and limitations on use of, NDNH data.

Xxxxxxx of the Matching Program. This agreement establishes a computer matching program between the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the State Public Assistance Agencies (SPAAs, described in Attachment A: PARIS SPAA List). The purpose of the matching program is to provide the SPAAs with VA compensation and pension data on a periodic basis to use in determining public assistance applicants’ and recipients’ eligibility for benefits under the Medicaid, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and general assistance programs, and to use in helping relevant veterans to better understand similar benefits available through the VA which may be better alternatives. The matching program helps ensure fair and equitable treatment in the delivery of benefits attributable to funds provided by the Federal Government. The Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families (HHS/ACF) will act as the facilitating agency, and the Department of Defense, Defense Manpower Data Center (DOD/DMDC) will conduct the match and provide associated support. ACF, in its role as match facilitator, will support each SPAA in its efforts to ensure appropriate delivery of benefits by assisting with drafting the necessary agreements, helping arrange signatures to the agreements, and arranging computer support services to implement the SPAA matches with VA data. ACF will forward a report containing a public notice of the proposed matching program for prior approval by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and Congress, and will publish the approved notice in the Federal Register. The disclosures of VA data under this matching program are authorized by a routine use published in a VA System of Records Notice (SORN), as described in Attachment B: VA Routine Use. To accomplish this match, the SPAAs will provide DMDC with a file of identifying information about individuals receiving Medicaid (CMS), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), and/or general assistance benefits. VA will provide DMDC with a file of identifying information about individuals receiving VA compensation and pension benefits and the amounts of the benefits. DMDC will match the SPAAs’ files with the VA file and provide match results to the relevant SPAAs. The SPAAs will then use the VA information to verify client circumstances for benefit eligibility and to initiate actions when appropriate. This agree...
