Other Supporting Justification. The Improper Payments Information Act of 2002, Pub. L. 107-300, the Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Act of 2010, Pub. L. 111-204, and the Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Improvement Act of 2012, Pub. L. 112-248, require federal agencies to identify programs susceptible to significant improper payments and to report to Congress on efforts to reduce such payments. The Office of Management and Budget issued implementing guidance to federal agencies in Appendix C to Circular A-123, Requirements for Effective Estimation and Remediation of Improper Payments, (June 26, 2018). The NDNH is a centralized database of wage and employment information and, as such, provides an effective and efficient means to obtain income information, preferable to other means of obtaining the same information. The matching program will assist the state agency in detecting fraud, waste and abuse and will enhance program integrity by strengthening the state agency’s oversight and management of the program. It will serve as a deterrent to some individuals who otherwise may fraudulently apply for and receive TANF benefits, and it will provide information to reduce erroneous payments, which is consistent with requirements of the Improper Payments Information Act , subsequent legislation, and guidance The matching program will also provide useful information on the employment and earnings of TANF applicants and recipients, specifically: 1) those who are employed with the federal government; 2) those who are employed in another state, including those who have been rehired by a previous employer after having been separated from such prior employment for at least 60 consecutive days (Pub. L. 112-40, effective April 21, 2012, amending subsection 453A(a)(2) of the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. § 653a(a)(2)); and 3) those whose information that is not readily available through the State Directory of New Hires, state workforce agencies, or other data reporting systems. The matching program also improves the state agency’s ability to report adult TANF applicants’ and recipients’ employment status and earnings and work participation to the Office of Family Assistance, in accordance with subsection 411(a)(1)(A)(iv) and (xi) of the Social Security Act. 42 U.S.C. § 611(a)(1)(A)(iv) and (xi). The positive results of the previous matching programs between the state agency and OCSE further justify the proposed matching program. See section II.C and Appendix A of this agreement.
