SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a), as 

amended, provides for certain 

protections for individuals applying for 

and receiving Federal benefits. The law 

governs 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. The Privacy Act requires 

agencies involved in computer matching 

programs to: 

1. Negotiate written agreements with 

the other agency or agencies 

participating in the matching programs; 

2. Provide notification to applicants 

and beneficiaries that their records are 

subject to matching; 

3. Verify information produced by 

such matching program before reducing, 

making a final denial of, suspending, or 

terminating an individual’s benefits or 

payments; 

4. Publish notice of the computer 

matching program in the Federal 

Register; 

5. Furnish reports about the matching 

program to Congress and OMB; and 

6. Obtain the approval of the 

matching agreement by the Data 

Integrity Board of any federal agency 

participating in a matching program. 

This matching program meets these 

requirements.

Enforcement. 

Notice of Computer Matching Program 

A. Participating Agencies 

The participating agencies are the 

Office of Child Support Enforcement 

(OCSE), which is the ‘‘recipient agency,’’ 

and State agencies administering UC 

programs, which are the ‘‘source 

agencies.’’ 

B. Purpose of the Matching Program 

The purpose of the matching program 

is to provide new hire and quarterly 

wage (QW) information from OCSE’s 

National Directory of New Hires 

(NDNH) to State agencies administrating 

UC programs for the purpose of 

establishing or verifying the eligibility 

of, or continuing compliance with 

statutory and regulatory requirements 

by, applicants for, or recipients of, UC 

benefits. State agencies administering 

the UC programs may also use the 

NDNH information for the 

administration of its tax compliance 

function. 

C. Authority for Conducting the Match 

The authority for conducting the 

matching program is contained in 

section 453(j)(8) of the Social Security 

Act (42 U.S.C. 653(j)(8)). 

D. Categories of Individuals Involved 

and Identification of Records Used in 

the Matching Program 

The categories of individuals involved 

in the matching program are applicants 

and recipients of benefits under UC 

programs administered by State 

agencies. The system of records 

maintained by OCSE from which 

records will be disclosed for the 

purpose of this matching program is the 

‘‘Location and Collection System’’ (LCS), 

No. 09–90–0074, last published in the 

Federal Register at 72 FR 51446 on 

September 7, 2007. The LCS includes 

the NDNH, which contains new hire, 

QW, and unemployment insurance 

information. Disclosures of NDNH 

information to the State agencies 

administering UC programs is a ‘‘routine 

use’’ under this system of records. 

Records resulting from the matching 

program and which are disclosed to the 

State agencies administering UC 

programs include names, Social 

Security numbers, and employment 

information. 

E. Inclusive Dates of the Matching 

Program 

The computer matching agreement 

will be effective and matching activity 

may commence the later of the 

following: 

(1) July 13, 2010; (2) 30 days after this 

Notice is published in the Federal 

Register; or (3) 40 days after OCSE 

sends a report of the matching program 

to the Congressional committees of 

jurisdiction under 5 U.S.C. 552a(o)(2)(A) 

and to OMB, unless OMB disapproves 

the agreement within the 40-day review 

period or grants a waiver of 10 days of 

the 40-day review period. The matching 

agreement will remain in effect for 18 

months from its effective date, unless 

one of the parties to the agreement 

advises the other by written request to 

terminate or modify the agreement. The 

agreement is subject to renewal by the 

HHS Data Integrity Board for 12 

additional months if the matching 

program will be conducted without any 

change and each party to the agreement 

certifies to the Board in writing that the 

program has been conducted in 

compliance with the agreement.
