Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 84 / Friday, May 2, 2025 / Notices

Title: Identity Theft Red Flags and
Address Discrepancies under the Fair
and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of
2003.
OMB Control No.: 1557–0237.
Description: Section 114 of the Fair
and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of
2003 (FACT Act) 1 amended section 615
of the Fair Credit Reporting Act
(FCRA) 2 to require the Agencies 3 to
jointly issue:
• Guidelines for financial institutions
and creditors regarding identity theft
with respect to their account holders
and customers. (In developing the
guidelines, the Agencies are required to
identify patterns, practices, and specific
forms of activity that indicate the
possible existence of identity theft. The
guidelines must be updated as often as
necessary and cannot be inconsistent
with the policies and procedures
required under section 326 of the USA
PATRIOT Act, (31 U.S.C. 5318(l));
• Regulations that require each
financial institution and each creditor to
establish reasonable policies and
procedures for implementing the
guidelines to identify possible risks to
account holders or customers or to the
safety and soundness of the institution
or customers; and
• Regulations generally requiring
credit and debit card issuers to assess
the validity of change of address
requests under certain circumstances.
Section 315 of the FACT Act 4 also
amended section 605 of FCRA to require
the Bureau of Consumer Financial
Protection (CFPB), in consultation with
the Agencies, to issue regulations
providing guidance regarding what
reasonable policies and procedures a
user of consumer reports must have in
place and employ when a user receives
a notice of address discrepancy from a
consumer reporting agency (CRA).
These regulations are required to
describe reasonable policies and
procedures for users of consumer
reports to:
• Enable a user to form a reasonable
belief that it knows the identity of the
1 15

U.S.C. 1681m(e).
U.S.C. 1681m.
3 Section 114 required the guidelines and
regulations to be issued jointly by the Federal
banking agencies (OCC, Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System, and Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation), the National Credit Union
Administration, and the Federal Trade Commission.
Therefore, for purposes of this filing, ‘‘Agencies’’
refers to these entities. Section 1088(a)(8) of the
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) further amended
section 615 of FCRA to also require the Securities
and Exchange Commission and the Commodity
Futures Trading Commission to issue Red Flags
guidelines and regulations.

person for whom it has obtained a
consumer report; and
• Reconcile the address of the
consumer with the CRA if the user
establishes a continuing relationship
with the consumer and regularly and, in
the ordinary course of business,
furnishes information to the CRA.
As required by section 114 of the
FACT Act, appendix J to 12 CFR part 41
contains guidelines for financial
institutions and creditors that are
national banks, Federal savings
associations, Federal branches or
agencies of a foreign bank, or any of
their operating subsidiaries that are not
functionally regulated to use in
identifying patterns, practices, and
specific forms of activity that may
indicate the existence of identity theft.
In addition, 12 CFR 41.90 requires each
financial institution or creditor that is a
national bank, Federal savings
association, Federal branch or agency of
a foreign bank, and any of their
operating subsidiaries that are not
functionally regulated, to establish an
Identity Theft Prevention Program
(Program) designed to detect, prevent,
and mitigate identity theft in connection
with covered accounts. Pursuant to
§ 41.91, credit card and debit card
issuers that are national banks, Federal
savings associations, Federal branches
or agencies of a foreign bank, or any of
their operating subsidiaries that are not
functionally regulated must establish
and implement reasonable policies and
procedures to assess the validity of a
request for a change of address under
certain circumstances.
Section 41.90 requires each OCCregulated financial institution or
creditor that offers or maintains one or
more covered accounts to develop and
implement a Program. In developing a
Program, financial institutions and
creditors are required to consider the
guidelines set forth in appendix J and
include in its Program those guidelines
that are appropriate. The initial Program
must be approved by the institution’s
board of directors or by an appropriate
committee thereof. The board, an
appropriate committee thereof, or a
designated employee at the level of
senior management must be involved in
the oversight, development,
implementation, and administration of
the Program. In addition, staff members
must be trained, as necessary, to
effectively implement the Program.
Pursuant to § 41.91, each credit and
debit card issuer is required to establish
and implement policies and procedures
to assess the validity of a change of
address request if it is followed within
a short period of time by a request for
an additional or replacement card.

PO 00000

Frm 00064

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

Before issuing the additional or
replacement card, the card issuer must
notify the cardholder of the request at
the cardholder’s former address or by
any other means of communication that
the card issuer and cardholder have
previously agreed to use and provide
the cardholder a reasonable means to
promptly report incorrect address
changes or use another means to assess
the validity of the change of address.
As required by section 315 of the
FACT Act, 12 CFR 1022.82 5 requires
users of consumer reports to have in
place reasonable policies and
procedures that must be followed when
a user receives a notice of address
discrepancy from a CRA.
Section 1022.82 requires each user of
consumer reports to develop and
implement reasonable policies and
procedures designed to enable the user
to form a reasonable belief that a
consumer report relates to the consumer
about whom it requested the report
when it receives a notice of address
discrepancy from a CRA. A user of
consumer reports also must develop and
implement reasonable policies and
procedures for furnishing a customer
address that the user has reasonably
confirmed to be accurate to the CRA
from which it receives a notice of
address discrepancy when the user can:
(1) form a reasonable belief that the
consumer report relates to the consumer
about whom the user has requested the
report; (2) establish a continuing
relationship with the consumer; and (3)
establish that it regularly and in the
ordinary course of business furnishes
information to the CRA from which it
received the notice of address
discrepancy.
Type of Review: Regular.
Affected Public: Individuals;
Businesses or other for-profit.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
1,172.
Estimated Total Annual Burden:
130,342 hours.
Comments submitted in response to
this notice will be summarized and
included in the request for OMB
approval. All comments will become a
matter of public record. Comments are
invited on:
(a) Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
OCC, including whether the information
shall have practical utility;
(b) The accuracy of the OCC’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of information;
5 Title X of the Dodd-Frank Act transferred this
regulation to the CFPB. The OCC retains
enforcement authority for this regulation for
institutions with $10 billion or less in total assets.
