106              INTERFACE MATCHES

Several interfaces are available to DPA Division of Public Assistance staff who have security clearance to access the information.  The interface-match screens include the Department of Labor (DOL Department of Labor) wage match, Internal Revenue Service (IRS Internal Revenue Service) unearned income match, and the SSA Social Security Administration Beneficiary Earnings Exchange Record System (BEERS Benefit Earnings Exchange Record System).

EIS Eligibility Information System generates an alert (ETAL ET Alerts screen) when there is a successful match with an EIS Eligibility Information System client for IRS Internal Revenue Service or BEERS Benefit Earnings Exchange Record System.  One Program Integrity & Analysis (PIA Program Integrity & Analysis) employee who is authorized to process the IRS Internal Revenue Service and BEERS Benefit Earnings Exchange Record System alerts receives these alerts.  The IRS Internal Revenue Service and BEERS Benefit Earnings Exchange Record System information is only available to this authorized PIA Program Integrity & Analysis employee, which is an IRS Internal Revenue Service ”safeguarding” requirement.  The safeguarding procedures for the BEERS Benefit Earnings Exchange Record System alert are the same as described for the IRS Internal Revenue Service alert.
