We rarely use the information you supply us for any purpose other than to make a determination regarding
benefits eligibility. However, we may use the information for the administration of our programs including
sharing information:
1. To comply with Federal laws requiring the release of information from our records (e.g., to the
Government Accountability Office and Department of Veterans Affairs); and,

We may also use the information you provide in computer matching programs. Matching programs compare

matching programs can be used to establish or verify a person's eligibility for federally funded or
administered benefit programs and for repayment of incorrect payments or delinquent debts under
these programs.
