SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Two systems are being provided for

Financial Services system of records inventory. SORNs were identified 
for rescindment for one of four reasons: the records (1) are not 
Privacy Act records; (2) are maintained as part of a new or modified 
system of records; (3) are duplicative, and covered by another HUD 
system of records; or (4) are obsolete and no longer maintained by the 
HUD. A description of each rescindment justification, the applicable 
SORNs, and an account of what happened to the records is as follows:

1. Not a Privacy Act System of Records

    Mere maintenance of personal information about an individual is not 
enough to create a Privacy Act system of records. To satisfy the 
elements of a system of records, there must be (1) a group of records; 
(2) under the control of a government agency; and (3) those records 
must be retrieved by a name or other personal identifier. When one 
condition is no longer met, the collection ceases to qualify as a 
system of records. Accordingly, the following SORN was identified for 
rescindment as is no longer meet the definition of a Privacy Act system 
of records:
    Title I Insurance and Claims System. SORN filed pursuant to 
regulations implementing the Title I loan program, 24 CFR 201.1 through 
200.63. HUD's statutory authority for implementing the regulations 
supporting HUD programs is found at 42 U.S.C 3532(a) and (b) and at 12 
U.S.C. 1701(a) and (c). During 2006, this SORN published and during 
June 2019 the Office upgraded their busines practice to no longer 
retrieve records by a personal unique identifier, such as name. Records 
maintained and used by system are no longer retrieved by unique 
personal identifier.

2. Maintained as Part of a New or Modified Systems of Records

    Property Improvement and Manufactured [Mobile] Home Loan-Default 
SORN filed pursuant to Title I, Sec. 2, National Housing Act, 12 U.S.C. 
1703; Federal Claims Collection Act of 1966 (Sec. 1, Pub. L 89-506). 
Records maintained and used by the Office of Housing Albany Financial 
Operations Center were consolidated and migrated into modified Debt 
Collection Asset Management (DCAMS) SORN, HUD/HS-55, August 2005.

and Social Security Number.
