### Routine uses of records maintained in the system, including categories of users and purposes of such users: 

In addition to those disclosures generally permitted under 5 U.S.C. 552a(b) of the Privacy Act, these records or information contained therein may specifically be disclosed outside the DoD as a routine use pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(b)(3) as follows: 

To the General Accounting Office, the Department of the Treasury, Financial Management, and the Department of Justice for collection action for any delinquent account when circumstances warrant. 

To a commercial credit reporting agency for the purpose of either adding to a credit history file or obtaining a credit history file for use in the administration of a debt collection. 

To a debt collection agency for the purpose of collection services to recover indebtedness owed to a DoD nonappropriated fund instrumentality. 

To any other Federal agency for the purpose of effecting salary offset procedures under the provisions of 5 U.S.C. 5514, against a person employed by that agency when any creditor DoD nonappropriated fund instrumentality has a claim against the person. 

To any other Federal agency including, but not limited to, the Internal Revenue Service and Office of Personnel Management for the purpose of effecting an administrative offset as defined at 31 U.S.C. 3701, of a debt. 

To the Internal Revenue Service under the provision of 31 U.S.C. 3711(g)(9) to offset a tax refund due the taxpayer to collect or to compromise a Federal claim against the taxpayer. 

To the Internal Revenue Service under the provisions of 26 U.S.C. 6103(m)(2) to obtain the mailing address of a taxpayer for the purpose of locating such taxpayer to collect or to compromise a Federal claim against the taxpayer. 

# Note:

Disclosure of a mailing address from the IRS may be made only for the purpose of debt collection, including to a debt collection agency in order to facilitate the collection or compromise of a Federal claim under the Debt Collection Act of 1982, except that a mailing address to a consumer reporting agency is for the limited purpose of obtaining a commercial credit report on the particular taxpayer. Any such address information obtained from the IRS will not be used or shared for any other DoD purpose or disclosed to another Federal, state or local agency which seeks to locate the same individual for its own debt collection purpose.

To any other Federal, state or local agency for the purpose of conducting an authorized computer matching program to identify and locate delinquent debtors for recoupment of debts owed a DoD nonappropriated fund instrumentality. 

Any information in this system concerning an individual may be disclosed to a creditor Federal agency requesting assistance for the purpose of initiating debt collection action by way of a salary or administrative offset or tax refund offset against the individual. 

The DoD “Blanket Routine Uses” set forth at the beginning of the DFAS compilation of system of records notices also apply to this system. 

### Disclosure to consumer reporting agencies:

Disclosure pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552a(b)(12) may be made from this system to “consumer reporting agencies” as defined in the Fair Credit Reporting Act (15 U.S.C. 1681a(f)) or the Federal Claims Collection Act of 1966 (31 U.S.C. 3701(a)(3)). The purpose of the disclosure is to aid in the collection of outstanding debts owed to the Federal Government; typically, to provide an incentive for debtors to repay delinquent Federal Government debts by making these debts part of their credit records. 

The disclosure is limited to information necessary to establish the identity of the individual, including name, address, and taxpayer identification number (Social Security Number); the amount, status, and history of the claim; and the agency or program under which the claim arose. 

### Policies and practices for storing, retrieving, accessing, retaining, disposing and reporting of records in the system:
