SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. General 

The Computer Matching and Privacy 

Protection Act of 1988 (Pub. L. 100–

503), amended the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 

552a) by describing the manner in 

which computer matching involving 

Federal agencies could be performed 

and adding certain protections for 

individuals applying for, and receiving, 

Federal benefits. Section 7201 of the 

Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 

1990 (Pub. L. 101–508) further amended 

the Privacy Act regarding protections for 

such individuals. The Privacy Act, as 

amended, regulates the use of computer 

matching by Federal agencies when 

records in a system of records are 

matched with other Federal, State, or 

local government records. 

It requires Federal agencies involved 

in computer matching programs to: 

(1) Negotiate written agreements with 

the other agency or agencies 

participating in the matching programs; 

(2) Obtain the Data Integrity Boards’

approval of the match agreements; 

(3) Publish notice of the computer 

matching program in the Federal 

Register; 

(4) Furnish detailed reports about 

matching programs to Congress and 

OMB; 

(5) Notify applicants and beneficiaries 

that their records are subject to 

matching; and 

(6) Verify match findings before 

reducing, suspending, terminating, or 

denying an individual’s benefits or 

payments. 

B. SSA Computer Matches Subject to 

the Privacy Act 

We have taken action to ensure that 

all of SSA’s computer matching 

programs comply with the requirements 

of the Privacy Act, as amended. 

Dated: February 22, 2007. 

Martin H. Gerry, 

Deputy Commissioner for Disability and 

Income Security Programs. 

Notice of Computer Matching Program, 

Social Security Administration (SSA) 

With Department of Veterans Affairs 

(VA), Veterans Benefit Administration 

(VBA) Match Number 1008 

A. Participating Agencies 

SSA and VA/VBA. 

B. Purpose of the Matching Program 

The purpose of this matching program 

is to establish the conditions for VA/ 

VBA as the source agency to disclose 

VA compensation and pension payment 

data to SSA, the recipient agency. This 

disclosure will provide SSA with 

information necessary to identify certain 

Supplemental Security Income (SSI) 

and Special Veterans Benefit (SVB) 

recipients under titles XVI and VIII of 

the Social Security Act (the Act) 

respectively, who receive VAadministered benefits. SSA will then 

update the SSI/SVB records to reflect 

the presence of such payments. 

The disclosure will also enable SSA 

to efficiently implement a Medicare 

outreach program mandated by Section 

1144 of title XI of the Act. Information 

disclosed by VA will enable SSA to 

identify income limits for certain 

individuals; to determine their potential 

eligibility for Medicare Savings 

Programs, and to identify these 

individuals to the States. 

C. Authority for Conducting the 

Matching Program 

The legal authority for SSA to 

conduct this matching activity is 

contained in sections 1631(e)(1)(B) and 

1631(f) of the Act, (42 U.S.C. 

1383(e)(1)(B) and 1383(f)(SSI)), and 

section 806(b) of the Act, (42 U.S.C. 

1006(b)(SVB)) and section 1144 of the 

Act, (42 U.S.C. 1320b–14). SSA is 

required to verify declarations of 

applicants for, and recipients of, SSI 

payments before making a 

determination of eligibility or payment 

amount. 

The legal authority for VA to disclose 

information for this match is contained 

in section 1631(f) of the Act, (42 U.S.C. 

Section 1383(f)). That section requires 

Federal agencies to provide such 

information as the Commissioner of 

Social Security needs for purposes of 

determining eligibility for or amount of 

benefits, or verifying other information 

with respect thereto. 

D. Categories of Records and 

Individuals Covered by the Matching 

Program 

VA will provide SSA with electronic 

files containing compensation and 

pension payment data from its system of 

records entitled the Compensation, 

Pension, Education and Rehabilitation 

Records—VA (58VA21/22) first 

published at 41 FR 9294 (March 3, 

1976), and last amended at 70 FR 34186 

(June 13, 2005), with other amendments 

as cited therein. SSA will then match 

VA data with SSI/SVB payment 

information maintained in its system of 

records entitled Supplemental Security 

Income Record and Special Veterans 

Benefits (SSA/OEEAS 60–0103.) 

Routine use 21 of 58VA21/22 and

Notice of Computer Matching Program, 

Social Security Administration (SSA) 

With Law Enforcement Agencies (LA) 

A. Participating Agencies 

SSA and LA. 

B. Purpose of the Matching Program 

The purpose of this matching program 

is to establish the conditions under 

which LA agree to disclose fugitive 

felon and parole or probation violator 

information to SSA. SSA will use this 

information to determine eligibility 

under titles II, VIII, and XVI of the 

Social Security Act and to select 

representative payees. 

C. Authority for Conducting the 

Matching Program 

This matching program is carried out 

under the authority of sections 

202(x)(1)(A)(iv) and (v), 202(x)(3), 

205(j)(2), 804(a)(2), 807(b) and (d), 

1611(e)(4) and (5) and 1631(a)(2) of the 

Social Security Act. 

D. Categories of Records and 

Individuals Covered by the Matching 

Program 

LA will submit names and other 

identifying information of individuals 

who are fugitive felons or parole or 

probation violators. The Master Files of 

Social Security Numbers (SSN) Holder 

and SSN Applications system of

the SSNs and identifying information 

for all SSN holders. The Master 

Beneficiary Record system of records, 

SSA/ORSIS 60–0090, and the

beneficiary and payment information. 

The Master Representative Payee File 

system of records, SSA/OISP 60–0222, 

contains information on individuals 

acting in a representative payee 

capacity. SSA will match data from 

these systems of records with data 

received from the LAs as a first step in 

detecting certain fugitive felons and 

parole or probation violators who 

should not be receiving benefits under 

titles II, VIII or XVI or who are 

prohibited from serving as a 

representative payee. 

E. Inclusive Dates of the Matching
