**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:**
**I. Background**
The Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019 and the Executive Order 14249, *Protecting America's' Bank Account From Fraud, Waste, and Abuse* are clear on expectations that Do Not Pay will be used throughout the payment lifecycle. On August 20, 2025, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) issued Memorandum M-25-32, “Preventing Improper Payments and Protecting Privacy Through Do Not Pay,” to the heads of all executive departments and agencies. In this memorandum, OMB required each agency to (1) identify which of the agency's systems of records maintain information about applicants for, or recipients of, Federal funds that agencies use to make eligibility determinations for payments to beneficiaries, award and loan recipients, vendors, contractors, and other payees; and (2) determine which of the identified systems of records maintain information whose disclosure to Treasury would be relevant and necessary for identifying, preventing, or recouping improper payments by reviewing payment and award eligibility through the Do Not Pay Working System; and (3) report to OMB and Congress which agency system of records notices would be updated to include either a new routine use or a modified routine use that would permit sharing of Privacy Act records to the Department of Treasury for purposes of implementing Do Not Pay.
To satisfy the routine use requirement in the Executive Order and OMB Memorandum M-25-32, DHS is issuing a notice in the *Federal Register* to modify eligible Department's System of Records Notices identified below. DHS will adopt OMB-required routine use language as follows: “To the U.S. Department of the Treasury when disclosure of the information is relevant to review payment and award eligibility through the Do Not Pay Working System for the purposes of identifying, preventing, or recouping improper payments to an applicant for, or recipient of, Federal funds, including funds disbursed by a state (meaning a state of the United States, the District of Columbia, a territory or possession of the United States, or a federally recognized Indian tribe) in a state-administered, federally funded program.” This language will be inserted in each applicable System of Records Notice in their “ROUTINE USES” section. DHS is not making any other changes to these System of Record Notices by this notice publication. In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a(r), the Department of Homeland Security has provided a report to OMB and the Congress on this notice of modified systems of records.
