[Docket Number: FR-6146-N-05]
Privacy Act of 1974; Matching Program
AGENCY: Office of Administration, HUD.
ACTION: Notice of a new matching program.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Pursuant to the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended by the
Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act (CMPPA) of 1988, HUD is
providing notice of its intent to execute a new computer matching
agreement with the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). The
matching agreement covers the exchange of data obtained by SBA
pertaining to delinquent debt. The purpose of the match is to update
the Credit Alert Verification Reporting System (CAIVRS), which is
maintained by HUD.
DATES: The period of this matching program is estimated to cover the
18-month period from June 15, 2019 through December 15, 2020. However,
the computer matching agreement (CMA) will become applicable at the
later of the following two dates: June 15, 2019 or 30 days after the
publication of this notice, unless comments have been received from
interested members of the public requiring modification and
republication of the notice.
ADDRESSES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments regarding
this notice at www.regulations.gov or to the Rules Docket Clerk, Office
of General Counsel, Department of Housing and Urban Development, 451
Seventh Street SW, Room 10110, Washington, DC 20410. Communications
should refer to the above docket number. A copy of each communication
submitted will be available for public inspection and copying between
8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. weekdays at the above address. Persons with
hearing or speech impairments may access this number through TTY by
calling the toll-free Federal Relay service at (800) 877-8339.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Contact the ``Recipient/Source
Agency'' John Bravacos, Departmental Privacy Officer, Department of
Housing and Urban Development, 451 Seventh Street SW, Room 10139,
Washington, DC 20410, telephone number (202) 708-3054.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice supersedes a similar notice
published in the Federal Register on January 5, 2016, at 81 FR 248. The
Computer Matching program seeks to set forth the terms and conditions
governing disclosures of records, information, or data (collectively
referred to herein as ``data'') made by SBA to HUD. This data is
obtained by SBA and pertains to delinquent debt that individuals owe to
SBA. The purpose of its transmittal is to update the Credit Alert
Verification Reporting System (CAIVRS), which is a computer information
system maintained by HUD. The data match will allow for the
prescreening of applicants for Federal direct loans or federally
guaranteed loans, for the purpose of determining the applicant's credit
worthiness, by ascertaining whether the applicant is delinquent or in
default on a loan owed directly to or guaranteed by the Federal
Government. The terms and conditions of this Agreement ensure that SBA
makes such disclosures of data, and that HUD uses such disclosed data,
in accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974, as
amended by the Computer Matching and Privacy Protection Act (CMPPA) of
1988, 5 U.S.C. 552a.
Participating Agencies: The U.S. Small Business Administration is
the source agency and the Department of Housing and Urban Development
is the recipient agency.
Authority for Conducting the Matching Program: HUD and SBA are
authorized to participate in the matching program under Title 31,
United States Code, Section 3720B. Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) Circulars A-129 (Managing Federal Credit Programs) and A-70
(Policies and Guidelines for Federal Credit Programs); the Budget and
Accounting Acts of 1921 and 1950, as amended; the Debt Collection Act
of 1982, as amended; the Deficit Reduction Act of 1984, as amended, and
the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996, as amended.
Purpose: The purpose of CAIVRS is to give participating federal
agencies and authorized private lenders acting on the government's
behalf, access to a database of delinquent federal debtors for the
purpose of pre-screening the credit worthiness of applicants for direct
loans and federally guaranteed loans. The use of CAIVRS will allow HUD
to better monitor its credit programs and to reduce the credit extended
to individuals with outstanding delinquencies on debts owed to HUD and
other Federal agencies. Thus, both risk reduction and debt recovery are
primary objectives of CAIVRS and this matching program.
Categories of Individuals: The matching program involves records of
individuals applying for direct loans and federally guaranteed loans.
Categories of Records: The following is the category of record in
this matching agreement:
Borrower ID Number--SSN, Employer Identification Number
(EIN) or Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) of the individual debtor
on a delinquent federal direct loan or federally-guaranteed loan.
Systems of Records: The HUD records used in the information
comparison are retrieved from, and the results of the
[[Page 24171]]
information comparison are maintained within, the HUD system of records
from the following systems: HUD/SFH-01--Single Family Default
Monitoring System, SFDMS, F42D (72 FR 65350, November 20, 2007; routine

Generic Debt, DCAMS-GD, F71A; and CFO/FY.03--Financial Data Mart, FDM
A57R (79 FR 16805, March 26, 2014).
SBA's records come from: (1) Disaster Loan Case File (SBA 20) (74
FR 14890, April 1, 2009); and (2) Loan System (SBA 21) (as amended 77
FR 61467, October 9, 2012). SBA will provide HUD with delinquent debtor

referral to the Department of Treasury for offset and cross-servicing.
