SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

On March 25, 2025, President Trump issued Executive Order (E.O.) 14249, “Protecting America's Bank Account Against Fraud, Waste, and Abuse.” In the E.O., President Trump directed agency heads to review and modify relevant System of Records Notices (SORNs) under the Privacy Act of 1974 to include a routine use that allows for the disclosure of records to the Department of Treasury for the purpose of identifying, preventing, or recouping fraud and improper payments, to the extent permissible by law.

On January 16, 2026, HUD published a Notice to modify certain HUD system of records notices under the Privacy Act of 1974 at 91 FR 2137. The notice listed HUD's intent to modify the HUD SORNs in two specific ways:

(1) Adding a new routine use to the end of the routine use section of the HUD system of records notices listed in a table published at 91 FR 2137.

(2) Removing the Do Not Pay routine use for the SORN titled “Single Family Mortgage Insurance Origination System” published at 90 FR 36173 ( printed page 17291) (August 1, 2025). The public comment period ended on February 17, 2026.

With respect to the first modification, no relevant information was omitted. HUD did not receive public comments on this modification. Accordingly, HUD will not revisit this matter. The modification became effective on February 18, 2026, the date following the end of the comment period.

With respect to the second modification, HUD identified an error and is not implementing the second modification as published for public comment at 91 FR 2137. In that Notice, HUD identified its intent to remove the routine use “P” for the System of Records Notice titled “Single Family Mortgage Insurance Origination System” but did not identify the routine use information that would serve as the replacement.

Through this Notice, HUD intends to remedy this error and replace the second modification found in the Supplementary Information section of the Notice published at 91 FR 2137 with: “(2) modifies the SORN titled Single Family Mortgage Insurance Origination System' last published at [90 FR 36173](https://www.federalregister.gov/citation/90-FR-36173) (August 1, 2025), to remove and replace routine useP: To the US Department of Treasury through a computer matching program interface between CHUMS and Treasury's Do Not Pay (DNP) system for the purposes of preventing and recovering improper payments and to verify borrower eligibility to participate in FHA's mortgage insurance programs per the Payments Integrity Information Act of 2019' with the routine use below, which is required by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Memorandum M-25-32, `Preventing Improper Payments and Protecting Privacy Through Do Not Pay' (August 20, 2025).”

HUD is reopening the deadline for public comments on the second modification until May 6, 2026. The action will be effective on the date following the end of the comment period unless comments are received which result in a contrary determination.
