Summary

Pursuant to the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Office of Public and Indian Housing, is issuing a public notice of its intent to establish a Privacy Act system of records titled Enterprise Voucher Management System (eVMS). The Enterprise Voucher Management System (eVMS) is used for managing funds for the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program. eVMS automates monthly Housing Assistance Payment (HAP) calculations using family-level data derived from the Information Management System/Public and Indian Housing Information Center (IMS/ PIC), provides authorized users with daily online access to those calculations and provides visibility into funding balances. This information is provided through the eVMS front-end user interface and does not require back-end access to the calculations. The system supports financial oversight and payment integrity by calculating monthly payments using near real-time HAP eligibility at the participant level. Any changes in HAP eligibility are promptly reflected in the next payment cycle, ensuring timely and accurate adjustments. As a result, payments are aligned with participants' current needs, reducing the risk of overpayments, waste, and potential abuse within the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) Program.
