**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :** 
I. Background

Congress mandated that the Immigration and Naturalization Service, as a precursor to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), establish a system to verify the immigration status of individuals seeking government benefits. Authority for having a system for verification of citizenship and immigration status of individuals seeking government benefits can be found in the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA), Public Law (Pub. L.) 99–603; the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (PRWORA), Public Law 104–193, 110 Stat. 2168; Title IV, Subtitle A, of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 (IIRIRA), Public Law 104–208, 110 Stat. 3009; and the Real ID Act of 2005, Public Law

109–13. Based on these authorities and in accordance with the Privacy Act of
1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a, DHS USCIS proposes to establish a new DHS system

of records titled ‘‘DHS/USCIS–004 Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements Program System of

Records.’’

USCIS Verification Division administers the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) Program, a fee-based intergovernmental initiative designed to help Federal, state, tribal, and local government agencies check immigration status when granting benefits, licenses, and other lawful purposes. SAVE is supported by

and uses information derived from individuals, partner agencies, the Verification Information System (VIS) and other DHS, Department of State, and Department of Justice systems.

The REAL ID Act of 2005, Public Law 109–13, 119 Stat. 231, 302 (2005) (codified at 49 U.S.C. 30301 note) requires all state Departments of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to utilize the USCIS SAVE program to verify the legal immigration status of applicants for driver’s licenses, driver’s permits, and

state-issued identification cards. Congress delayed the initial implementation date from May 2008

until December 2009. DMVs access SAVE through the American

Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators Network (AAMVAnet) or via Internet access using Web 3 or Web Services, which is a support

service that allows SAVE customer agencies to access VIS information through a software interface.

Previously, USCIS documented the SAVE and E-Verify Programs in the VIS Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) and System of Records Notice (SORN). VIS was and continues to be the underlying technology of both systems. In order to assist the public in better understanding the two programs, USCIS has issued a separate E-Verify SORN and, with this publication, is updating the original VIS SORN with this updated SORN. SAVE is described in previous SORNs, most recently in the VIS SORN (73 FR 75445, December 11, 2008).

SAVE Usage Overview

The SAVE Program was originally limited to immigration status verification for eligibility determinations of any public benefit, license, or credential—the benefit or

‘‘entitlement’’ referred to in the name of the program. However, over time the scope of SAVE has grown to include the implementation of Section 642(c) of IIRIRA, which obligates USCIS to respond to inquiries ‘‘by a federal, state, or local government agency seeking to verify or ascertain the citizenship or immigration status of any individual within the jurisdiction of the agency for any purpose authorized by law.’’ This expansion was highlighted in previous versions of the SAVE Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA).

Accordingly, to the extent that a Federal, state, or local government entity has the legal authority to verify immigration status, SAVE, as an access method to USCIS systems, is authorized to respond to the request. Specifically, in addition to verifications for purposes of granting government benefits, this includes verification for purposes of background investigations for individuals, and cohabitants of the individuals undergoing background investigations.

Government agencies input biographic information into SAVE for

status determinations. If SAVE has a record pertaining to the individual, the government agency automatically receives limited biographic information on the citizenship and immigration

status of the individual. If SAVE does


### 58527 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 183 / Wednesday, September 21, 2011 / Notices

not have a record pertaining to the individual, SAVE prompts the customer agency asking if they would like a manual second step verification, with possible escalation to a manual third step verification, Form G–845, if appropriate. Although SAVE may receive a Social Security Number (SSN) from its supporting VIS systems or customer agencies as part of a status determination, it does not specifically request or return SSNs in its responses.

The primary use of the SAVE information is to provide immigration status information for any legally mandated purpose to Federal, state, and local government customer agencies. The majority of customer agencies use SAVE to determine if applicants are entitled to receive the public benefits, licenses, or credentials that they administer. For example, based on IRCA, customer agencies use SAVE when providing benefits such as education and housing assistance, unemployment benefits, and Medicaid

or other state health insurance benefits. PRWORA, through its definition of public benefits, allows customer agencies to use SAVE to determine the immigration status for purposes such as granting licensing and loans. (IIRIRA) provides for customer agencies to use SAVE for any legal purpose, such as credentials, background investigations, and voter registration. In addition, the Real ID Act of 2005 requires that all states utilize SAVE to verify the immigration status of individuals claiming to be non-U.S. citizens for driver’s licenses, driver’s permits, and

identification cards.

Information in SAVE will only be

used for SAVE verifications and other purposes incidental to the SAVE process, such as customer agency registration and relationship management, user accountability, program quality management, and monitoring and compliance activities.

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, DHS proposes to establish a new DHS system of records notice titled ‘‘DHS/USCIS–004—Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements Program’’ system of records. The USCIS

Verification Division administers the SAVE Program. SAVE is an intergovernmental initiative designed to assist benefit-granting Federal, state, and local agencies determine if non-U.S. citizen applicants are entitled to receive the public benefits, licenses, or credentials that they administer. Previously, DHS published a single system of records notice for the E-Verify and SAVE Programs as part of the underlying technology, VIS (73 FR 75445, December 11, 2008). DHS is now publishing separate system of records notices for E-Verify and SAVE in order to assist the public in better understanding these programs. This newly established system of records will be included in DHS’s inventory of record systems.

With the publication of this SAVE SORN to accompany the E-Verify SORN (76 FR 26738, May 9, 2011), the VIS

SORN will be retired.

II. Privacy Act

The Privacy Act embodies fair information practice principles in a statutory framework governing the means by which the U.S. Government collects, maintains, uses, and

disseminates individuals’ records. The Privacy Act applies to information that is maintained in a ‘‘system of records.’’ A ‘‘system of records’’ is a group of any records under the control of an agency for which information is retrieved by the name of an individual or by some identifying number, symbol, or other identifying particular assigned to the individual. In the Privacy Act, an individual is defined to encompass U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents. As a matter of policy, DHS extends administrative Privacy Act protections to all individuals where systems of records maintain information on U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, and visitors. Below is the description of the DHS/USCIS–004 Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements Program System of

Records.

In accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), DHS has provided a report of this system of records to the Office of Management and Budget and to Congress.
