EIV Identity Verification The EIV system verifies tenant identities against SSA records. These records are compared to PIC data for a match on social security number, name, and date of birth. PHAs are required to use EIV's Identity Verification Report on a monthly basis to improve the availability of income information in EIV [Notice PIH 2O12-10]. When identity verification for a participant fails, a message will be displayed within the EIV system and no income information will be displayed. SAHA Policv SAHA will identify participants whose identity verification has failed by reviewing EIV's Identity Verification Report on a monthly basis. SAHA will attempt to resolve PIC/SSA discrepancies by obtaining appropriate documentation from the participant. When SAHA determines that the discrepancies exist due to staff error such as spelling errors or incorrect birth dates, the errors will be corrected promptly.

The more preferable form, "written third -party verification," consists of an original document generated by a third -party source, which may be received directly from a third -party source or provided to SAHA by the family. If written third -party verification is not available, SAHA must attempt to obtain a "written third -party verification form." This is a standardized form used to collect information from a third party. Written Third -Party Verification [Notice PIH 2O40-191 Written third -party verification documents must be original and authentic and may be supplied by the family or received from a third -party source. Examples of acceptable tenant -provided documents include, but are not limited to: pay stubs, payroll summary reports, employer notice or letters of hire and termination, SSA benefit verification letters, bank statements, child support payment stubs, welfare benefit letters and/or
