A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection: EIV System User Access
Authorization Form and Rules of Behavior and User Agreement.
OMB Approval Number: 2577-0267.
Type of Request: Revision of currently approved collection.
Form Number: 52676 and 52676I.
Description of the need for the information and proposed use: In
accordance with statutory requirements at 5 U.S.C. 552a, as amended
(most commonly known as the Federal Privacy Act of 1974), the
Department is required to account for all disclosures of information
contained in a system of records. Specifically, the Department is
required to keep an accurate accounting of the name and address of the
person or agency to which the disclosure is made. The Enterprise Income
Verification (EIV) System (HUD/PIH-5) is classified as a System of
Records, as initially published on July 20, 2005, in the Federal
Register at page 41780 (70 FR 41780) and amended and published on
August 8, 2006, in the Federal Register at page 45066 (71 FR 45066).
As a condition of granting access to the EIV system, each
prospective user of the system must (1) request access to the system;
(2) agree to comply with HUD's established rules of behavior; and (3)
review and signify their understanding of their responsibilities of
protecting data protected under the Federal Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 522a,
as amended). As such, the collection of information about the user and
the type of system access required by the prospective user is required
by HUD to: (1) Identify the user; (2) determine if the prospective user
in fact requires access to the EIV system and in what capacity; (3)
provide the prospective user with information related to the Rules of
Behavior for system usage and the user's responsibilities to safeguard
data accessed in the system once access is granted; and (4) obtain the
signature of the prospective user to certify the user's understanding
of the Rules of Behavior and responsibilities associated with his/her
use of the EIV system.
HUD collects the following information from each prospective user:
Public Housing Agency (PHA) code, organization name, organization
address, prospective user's full name, HUD-assigned user ID, position
title, office telephone number, facsimile number, type of work which
involves the use of the EIV system, type of system action requested,
requested access roles to be assigned to prospective user, public
housing development numbers to be assigned to prospective PHA user, and
prospective user's signature and date of request. The information is
collected electronically and manually (for those who are unable to
transmit electronically) via a PDF-fillable or Word-fillable document,
which can be emailed, faxed or mailed to HUD. If this information is
not collected, the Department will not be in compliance with the
Federal Privacy Act and be subject to civil penalties.
