SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

notice supersedes notice published in

71 FR 17129. This match will allow 

prescreening of applicants for debts 

owed or loans guaranteed by the federal 

government to ascertain if the applicant 


rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES2
8980 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 38 / Friday, February 27, 2009 / Notices 

is delinquent in paying a debt owed to 

or insured by the federal government. 

Before granting a loan, a lending agency 

and/or an authorized lending institution 

will be able to interrogate the CAIVRS 

debtor file, which contains the Social 

Security Numbers (SSNs) of HUD’s 

delinquent debtors and defaulter files of 

the DOJ and verify that the loan 

applicant is not in default on a federal 

judgment or delinquent on direct or 

guaranteed loans of participating federal 

programs. As a result of the information 

produced by this match, the authorized 

users may not deny, terminate, or make 

a final decision on any loan assistance 

to an applicant or take other adverse 

action against such applicant, until an 

officer or employee of such agency has 

independently verified such 

information. 

Reporting of Matching Program 

In accordance with Public Law 100– 

503, the Computer Matching and 

Privacy Protection Act of 1988, as 

amended, and OMB Bulletin 89–22, 

‘‘Instructions on Reporting Computer 

Matching Programs to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB), 

Congress and the Public,’’ copies of this 

notice and report are being provided to 

the Committee on Government Reform 

of the House of Representatives, the 

Committee on Homeland Security and 

Governmental Affairs of the Senate, and 

the Office of Management and Budget. 

Authority: The matching program will be 

conducted under the authority of 28 U.S.C. 

2301(e) (3611 of the Federal Debt Collection 

Procedures Act of 1990, Pub. L. 101–647), 

and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 

Circulars A–129 (Managing Federal Credit 

Programs) and A–70 (Policies and Guidelines 

for Federal Credit Programs). One of the 

purposes of all Executive departments and 

agencies—including HUD—is to implement 

efficient management practices for federal 

credit programs. OMB Circular A–129 is 

issued under the authority of the Budget and 

Accounting Act of 1921, as amended; the 

Budget and Accounting Act of 1950, as 

amended; the Debt Collection Act of 1982 

(Pub. L. 97–365; 5 U.S.C. 5514(a)), as 

amended by the Debt Collection 

Improvement Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104–134, 

section 31001); Section 2653 of Public Law 

98–369; 41 U.S.C. 253; the Federal Credit 

Reform Act of 1990, as amended; the Federal 

Debt Collection Procedures Act of 1990; the 

Chief Financial Officers Act of 1990, as 

amended; Executive Order 8248; the Cash 

Management Improvement Act Amendments 

of 1992; and pre-existing common law 

authority to charge interest on debts and to 

offset payments to collect debts 

administratively. 

Objectives to be Met By the Matching 

Program: HUD’s primary objective in 

continuing the existing matching 

program is to give program agencies and 

their authorized financial institutions 

access to a system which allows them to 

prescreen applicants for loans or loans 

guaranteed by the Federal government 

to ascertain if the applicant is 

delinquent in paying a debt owed to or 

insured by the Government. By 

identifying those individuals or 

corporations against whom the DOJ has 

filed a judgment, the federal government 

can expand the prescreening search of 

their loan applicants to further avoid 

lending to applicants who are credit 

risks. As part of this process, HUD will 

be provided access to DOJ’s debtor data 

for prescreening purposes. Each month 

HUD/CAIVRS receives limited 

information on borrowers who have 

defaulted on loans administered by 

participating federal agencies. This 

information includes: Social Security 

Number (SSN) or Employer 

Identification Number (EIN), case 

number, Federal Agency identifying 

code, and record type. Participating 

agencies also provide HUD with a file 

containing authorized lenders/business 

partners. Participating Federal agency 

personnel or authorized lenders that 

require access to CAIVRS, must enter a 

user authorization code followed by 

either an SSN or EIN (for businesses and 

non-profits). Only the following 

information is returned/displayed to the 

authorized users of CAIVRS: 

• Yes/No as to whether the holder of 

that SSN/EIN is in default on a Federal 

loan; and 

• If Yes, then CAIVRS provides to the 

lender: 

• Loan case number; 

• Record type (claim, default, 

foreclosure, or judgment); 

• Agency administering the loan 

program; and 

• Phone # at that agency (to call to 

clear up the default) 

• Confirmation Code associated with 

the query 

By law, processing of applications for 

Federal Credit benefits (such as 

government-insured loans) must be 

suspended when applicants are 

delinquent on Federal debt. Processing 

may continue only when the debtor 

satisfactorily resolves the debt (e.g., 

pays in full or renegotiates a new 

payment plan). To remove a CAIVRS 

sanction, the borrower must use the 

information provided to contact the 

agency that reported their SSN or EIN to 

HUD/CAIVRS. 

Records to be Matched: HUD will use 

records from its systems of records 

entitled, HUD/SFH–01, Single Family 

Default Monitoring System; HUD/SFH– 

02, Single Family Insurance System 

CLAIMS Subsystem; HUD/HS–55, Debt 

Collection Asset Management System; 

and HUD/HS–57, Single Family 

Mortgage Notes. The debtor files for 

programs involved are included in these 

systems of records. HUD’s debtor files 

contain information on borrowers and 

co-borrowers who are currently in 

default (at least 90 days delinquent on 

their loans or who have had their partial 

claim subordinate mortgage called due 

and payable and it has not been repaid 

in full); or who have any outstanding 

claims paid during the last three years 

on a Title II insured or guaranteed home 

mortgage loans; or individuals who had 

a claim paid in the last three years on 

a Title I loan. The DOJ will provide 

HUD with debtor files maintained in 

two DOJ systems of records. The first is 

entitled ‘‘Justice/JMD–006, Debt 

Collection Management System and the 

second is entitled ‘‘Justice/USA–015, 

Debt Collection Enforcement System. 

The DOJ debtor files contain 

information on individuals or 

corporations against who have defaulted 

on federal judgments. The DOJ will 

retain ownership and responsibility for 

their system of records that they place 

with HUD. HUD serves only as a record 

location and routine use recipient for 

DOJ’s data. 

Notice Procedures: HUD will notify 

individuals at the time of application 

(ensuring that routine use appears on 

the application form) for guaranteed or 

direct loans that their records will be 

matched to determine whether they are 

delinquent or in default on a federal 

debt. HUD and DOJ will also publish 

notices concerning routine use 

disclosures in the Federal Register to 

inform individuals that a computer 

match may be performed to determine a 

loan applicant’s credit status with the 

federal government. 

Categories of Records/Individuals 

Involved: The debtor records include 

data elements from HUD’s systems of 

records: SSN, claim number, program 

code, and indication of indebtedness. 

Categories of records include: records of 

claims and defaults, repayment 

agreements, credit reports, financial 

statements, and records of foreclosures, 

and financial judgment liens. Categories 

of individuals include: former 

mortgagors and purchasers of HUDowned properties, and home 

improvement loan debtors who are 

delinquent or in default (at least 90 days 

delinquent on their loans or who have 

had their partial claim subordinate 

mortgage called due and payable and it 

has not been paid in full); or who have 

any outstanding claims paid during the 

last three years on a title II insured or 

guaranteed home mortgage loans; or 

individuals who has a claim paid in the 

last three years on a Title I loan, and 


rwilkins on PROD1PC63 with NOTICES2
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 38 / Friday, February 27, 2009 / Notices 8981 

individuals or corporations against 

whom judgments have been filed by 

DOJ. 

Period of Match: Matching will begin 

at least 40 days from the date copies of 

the signed (by both agencies Data 

Integrity Boards) computer matching 

agreements are sent to OMB and both 

Houses of Congress or at least 30 days 

from the date this notice is published in 

the Federal Register, whichever is later, 

providing no comments are received 

which would result in a contrary 

determination. The matching program 

will be in effect and continue for 18 

months with an option to renew for 12 

additional months unless one of the 

parties to the agreement advises the 

other in writing to terminate or modify 

the agreement.
