Privacy Act of 1974; New Matching Program

In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) guidance on computer matching, the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) is providing notice of the establishment of a new matching program. Pursuant to the Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019 (PIIA), OPM is establishing a matching program with the Department of the Treasury's Do Not Pay (DNP) Working System, which is administered by the Bureau of the Fiscal Service. The matching program will enable OPM Retirement Services to compare records maintained in OPM systems of records with records maintained in the DNP Working System for the purposes of identifying and preventing improper payments and conducting related recovery activities by verifying pre-payment eligibility through Do Not Pay. OPM has determined that this matching program satisfies the eligibility requirements for the waiver of the computer matching agreement requirement under OMB Memorandum M-25-32.
