Note Regarding Federal, State, and 

Local Government Agencies (Such as 

Departments of Motor Vehicles) 

While Federal Government agencies 

must follow the guidelines laid out by 

the Federal Government, state and local 

government agencies establish their own 

rules and guidelines when granting 

certain benefits. Each state may have 

different laws, requirements, and 

determinations about what documents 

you need to provide to prove eligibility 

for certain benefits. Whether you are 

applying for a Federal, state, or local 

government benefit, you may need to 

provide the government agency with 

documents that show you are a TPS 

beneficiary and/or show you are 

authorized to work based on TPS. 

Examples of such documents are: 

(1) Your current EAD; 

(2) A copy of your Notice of Action 

(Form I–797C), the notice of receipt, for 

your application to renew your current 

EAD providing an automatic extension 

of your currently expired or expiring 

EAD; 

(3) A copy of your Notice of Action 

(Form I–797C), the notice of receipt, for 

your Application for Temporary 

Protected Status for this re-registration; 

and 

(4) A copy of your Notice of Action 

(Form I–797), the notice of approval, for 

a past or current Application for 

Temporary Protected Status, if you 

received one from USCIS. Check with 

the government agency regarding which 

document(s) the agency will accept. 

Some benefit-granting agencies use the 

USCIS Systematic Alien Verification for 

Entitlements (SAVE) program to confirm 

the current immigration status of 

applicants for public benefits. 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 the following link: https:// 

save.uscis.gov/casecheck/, then by 

clicking the ‘‘Check Your Case’’ button. 

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. 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 upon or will act upon a SAVE 

verification and you do not believe the 

response is correct, you may make an 

InfoPass appointment for an in-person 

interview at a local USCIS office. 

Detailed information on how to make 

corrections, make an appointment, or 

submit a written request to correct 

records under the Freedom of 

Information Act can be found on the 

SAVE website at http://www.uscis.gov/

Description of the Need for the

collection of information is specified in 

24 CFR 203.264 AND 24 CFR 203.269. 

In general, the lenders use the ACH 

application to remit the periodic 

premium payments through SFPCS–P 

for the required FHA insured cases and 

to comply with the Credit Reform Act.

[Docket No. FR–6109–N–01] 

Allocations, Common Application, 

Waivers, and Alternative Requirements 

for Community Development Block 

Grant Disaster Recovery Grantees 

AGENCY: Office of the Assistant 

Secretary for Community Planning and 

Development, HUD. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: On April 10, 2018, HUD 

allocated nearly $28 billion in 

Community Development Block Grant 

disaster recovery (CDBG–DR) funds 

appropriated by the Further Additional 

Supplemental Appropriations for 

Disaster Relief Requirements Act, 2018. 

HUD allocated $10.03 billion for the 

purpose of assisting in addressing 

unmet needs from disasters that 

occurred in 2017; $2 billion for 

improved electrical power systems in 

areas impacted by Hurricane Maria; and 

$15.9 billion for mitigation activities. 

This notice applies only to the $10.03 

billion allocated for long-term recovery 

from disasters that occurred in 2017. A 

future notice will specify the 

requirements and process for the 

electrical power systems funding and 

the mitigation funds. 

This $10.03 billion allocation for 

addressing unmet recovery needs 

supplements the $7.4 billion in CDBG– 

DR funds appropriated by the 

Supplemental Appropriations for 

Disaster Relief Requirements Act, 2017, 

which allocated funds to Texas, Florida, 

Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands 

in response to qualifying disasters in 

2017. In HUD’s Federal Register notice 

published on February 9, 2018 (the 

‘‘Prior Notice’’), HUD described those 

allocations, applicable waivers and 

alternative requirements, relevant 

statutory and regulatory requirements, 

the grant award process, criteria for 

action plan approval, and eligible 

disaster recovery activities.

Appendix A: Allocation Methodology 

I. Allocations 

The Further Additional Supplemental 

Appropriations for Disaster Relief 

Requirements Act, 2018 (Division B, 

Subdivision 1 of the Bipartisan Budget 

Act of 2018), approved February 9, 2018 

(Pub. L. 115–123) (the ‘‘Appropriations 

Act’’), appropriated nearly $28 billion in 

CDBG–DR funds. Of this amount, up to 

$16 billion is available to address unmet 

disaster recovery needs through 

activities authorized under title I of the 

Housing and Community Development 

Act of 1974 (42 U.S.C. 5301 et seq.) 

(HCD Act) related to disaster relief, 

long-term recovery, restoration of 

infrastructure and housing, economic 

revitalization, and mitigation in the 

‘‘most impacted and distressed’’ areas 

(identified by HUD using the best 

available data) resulting from a major 

declared disaster that occurred in 2017. 

Amounts allocated for these purposes 

supplement $7.4 billion in CDBG–DR 

funds appropriated on September 8, 

2017, by the Supplemental 

Appropriations for Disaster Relief 

Requirements, 2017 (Pub. L. 115–56) 

(the ‘‘Prior Appropriation’’). HUD 

allocated the first $7.4 billion in the 

Prior Notice (83 FR 5844, February 9, 

2018). This notice amends the Prior 

Notice to ensure consistency across 

allocations for the same qualifying 

disasters, and to give effect to 

requirements of the Appropriations Act, 

including that funds allocated under the 

Prior Notice are subject to the terms and 

conditions applicable to CDBG–DR 

funds under the Appropriations Act. 

Based on the remaining unmet needs 

allocation methodology outlined in 

Appendix A, this notice allocates 

$10,030,484,000 for unmet disaster 

recovery needs under the 

Appropriations Act. The allocation 

amounts for unmet recovery needs 

included in Table 1 exclude the $2 

billion set-aside for Puerto Rico and the 

Virgin Islands for electrical system 

improvements. The Appropriations Act 

further provided that of the nearly $28 

billion, HUD must allocate not less than 

$12 billion for mitigation activities 

undertaken by grantees receiving an 

allocation of CDBG–DR funds for 

recovery from 2015, 2016, or 2017 

disasters. On April 10, 2018, HUD 

announced that after addressing 

remaining 2017 unmet needs, HUD 

would allocate an additional $3.9 

billion for mitigation, bringing the 

amount designated for mitigation to 

$15.9 billion. A subsequent notice will 

govern the allocations for mitigation and 

the allocations for electrical power 

system enhancements and 

improvements. 

In accordance with the 

Appropriations Act, $10,000,000 of the 

total amounts appropriated under the 

Act will be transferred to the 

Department’s Office of Community 

Planning and Development (CPD), 

Program Office Salaries and Expenses, 

for necessary costs of administering and 

overseeing CDBG–DR funds made 

available under the Appropriations Act 

and $15,000,000 is to be transferred to 

the CPD office to provide necessary 

capacity building and technical 

assistance to grantees. The 

Appropriations Act also provides 

$10,000,000 to the Department’s Office 

of the Inspector General for oversight of 

the appropriated CDBG–DR funds. 

Although the Prior Notice requires 

each grantee to primarily consider and 

address its unmet housing recovery 

needs, grantees under this notice and 

the Prior Notice may also propose an 

allocation of funds that includes unmet 

economic revitalization and 

infrastructure needs that are unrelated 

to unmet housing needs after the grantee 

demonstrates in its needs assessment 

that there is no remaining unmet
