§ 30.20   Taxpayer information.

(a) The Secretary shall enter into reimbursable agreements with the Internal Revenue Service in accordance with IRS Revenue Procedure 83–29, 26 CFR 601.702, to obtain the current mailing addresses of debtors and to find out whether applicants under included Federal loan programs have overdue tax accounts.

(b) “Included Federal loan program” means any program under which the Department makes, guarantees or insures loans and which appears in the current list of included Federal loan programs published by the Director of the Office of Management and Budget in the Federal Register. An applicant for a loan under an included Federal loan program administered by the Department must furnish his or her taxpayer identification number, which, for an individual, means the Social Security number.

(c) Tax delinquency information may not be redisclosed or used for any other purpose. Addresses obtained from the Internal Revenue Service may be used by the Department, its officers, employees, agents or contractors and other Federal agencies to collect or dispose of debts, but may be disclosed to consumer reporting agencies only to obtain credit reports, unless otherwise independently verified.
