Administrative Plan 7/1/2025 Page 7-12 <br />No Income Reported by HHS or SSA Report <br />This report is a tool for PHAs to identify participants who passed the SSA identity test, but no <br />income information was reported by either HHS or SSA records. This scenario does not mean <br />that the participant does not have any income. PHAs obtain written, third-party verification of <br />any income reported by the participant. The PHA must identify in its policies and procedures <br />when this report will be pulled [Notice PIH 2023-27]. <br />SAHA Policy <br />SAHA will generate the No Income Reported by HHS or SSA Report quarterly and will <br />retain the report. <br />SAHA will re-verify the status of participants identified on the report quarterly. Based on <br />the information provided by the family and in EIV, SAHA may require that family <br />members provide verifications or sign release forms in order to obtain additional <br />verification. <br />When SAHA determines through this report and third-party verification that a family has <br />concealed or under-reported income, corrective action will be taken pursuant to the <br />policies in Chapter 14, Program Integrity <br />EIV Identity Verification Report <br />The EIV system verifies tenant identities against SSA records. These records are compared to <br />HUD data for a match on social security number, name, and date of birth. <br />PHAs are required to use EIV’s Identity Verification Report on a monthly basis to improve the <br />availability of income information in EIV [Notice PIH 2023-27]. <br />When identity verification for a participant fails, a message will be displayed within the EIV <br />system and no income information will be displayed. <br />SAHA Policy <br />SAHA will identify participants whose identity verification has failed by reviewing <br />EIV’s Identity Verification Report on a monthly basis. <br />SAHA will attempt to resolve discrepancies by obtaining appropriate documentation <br />from the participant. When SAHA determines that discrepancies exist as a result of PHA <br />errors such as spelling errors or incorrect birth dates, it will correct the errors promptly. <br />EXHIBIT 1
