    This document provides an overview of the EIV Income Validation Tool (IVT) for PHAs. The IVT identifies discrepancies between income reported by tenants on form HUD-50058 and income data from other sources like SSA to reduce errors and improve data quality. It was piloted successfully with 12 PHAs and will replace the current EIV Income Discrepancy Report. The IVT allows PHAs to more accurately compute annual income and identify potential underreporting of income.

    EIV Income Validation Tool (IVT)

    PHA Training
    2018
    EIV & IVT

     The primary goal of EIV is to identify and reduce administrative and subsidy
    payment errors, fraud, waste and abuse in HUD’s rental assistance programs.

     The EIV Income Validation Tool (IVT) Provides a validation of tenant


    reported wages, unemployment compensation and Social Security benefits
    reported in IMS-PIC via form HUD-50058.

     The IVT displays Discrepancies in previously reported amounts of tenant


    income by comparing the income reported (50058) with the income/benefit
    information received from the Department of Health and Human Services’
    (HHS) National Directory of New Hires (NDNH) & the Social Security
    Administration (SSA) data sharing agreements.

    EIV IVT Pilot & Results

     The IVT was developed in response to an OIG audit that found a large volume of false
    positives in the EIV Income Discrepancy Report.

     The IVT was pilot tested with 12 PHAs between October 2017 and January 2018 and
    will replace the EIV Income Discrepancy Report and be accessed via the EIV menu.

     IVT Pilot Results:


     Reduces false positives in EIV Income Discrepancy Report
     Identifies potential cases of identity theft
     Improves IMS-PIC data quality & reporting accuracy
     Assists PHAs in identifying accurate income code categories
     Refers to form HUD-50058 Income Codes (16)

     Allows focused review of Wage, Unemployment Compensation, Zero Incomes


    and Social Security Benefits

    3
    Annual Income Computation

     PHA transmits household income via form HUD-50058 in IMS-PIC, i.e.


    $6,000 Annual Household Income.

     At Reexamination: Annual Income is computed by adding the Re-


    examination Quarter Income (NDNH + Unemployment Compensation +
    SSA Income/Benefits), i.e. $2,000 + Prior Quarter Income from NDNH +
    Unemployment Compensation + SSA Income/Benefits), i.e. $3,000 =
    $5,000 multiplied by 2 = $10,000 Annualized Income.

     Discrepant Income: Annual NDNH + Unemployment Compensation +


    SSA I/Benefits – PIC previously reported income (prior 50058) =
    unreported or misreported household income and a potential improper
    payment/Income Discrepancy ($10,000 - $6,000 = $4,000).

    IVT Features

     Enhanced Search: (1) Name, (2) Last 4 of SSN, (3) DOB, (4)
    Development Name and (5) Development Code.

     Excludes Income for individuals coded on form HUD-50058:

     Full-Time Students
     Live-in Aides
     Youth Under 18
     Tenants paying flat rents

     Permits PHAs too quickly identify instances of discrepant income that


    can be questioned during regular Annual and/or Interim
    Reexaminations that may result in underreported or misreported tenant
    income. The IVT, although helpful, does not replace the personal
    interview or verification process during the reexamination between the
    PHA and the family.

    Household Member Report

    Note: V MLHMZF received more income per NDNH and SSA than the income reported in PIC
    form HUD 50058

    Annualized Income reported by NDNH and SSA for V MLHMZF = 20624+23794 X 2 = $88,836
    Unreported Income = 88,836- 37,981 = $50,855

    10
    Employment History Report

    Number of employers from the Household Member Report equal the count of employers for the
    Reexamination quarter and the previous quarter (i.e. 7/1/2014 and 4/1/2014 quarters).
