Sec. 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.
