Subject: EIV User Certification MUST Be Completed by 11:59PM, EST on 04/29/09

Attention EIV User Administrators!  EIV user certification is due by 4/29/2009.  Failure to certify users by 11:59PM, EST on 04/29/09, will result in termination of EIV access at 12:00AM, EST on 04/30/2009.  Certifying users is as easy as 1-2-3!  See steps below.

Note to PHAs:  PHA User Administrators will be certified by their respective local HUD office.  PHA User Administrators – you are required to certify all EIV users at your PHA (excluding those users who are assigned the role of PHA User Administrators).

Note to HUD FO Staff:   HUB/FO/TARC User Administrators will be certified by the HHQ User Administrator.  You are required to certify all HUD EIV users within  your jurisdiction (excluding those HUD users who are assigned the role of HUB/FO/TARC User Administrator) AND all PHA User Administrators within your jurisdiction.

Instructions for Certifying Users

Step 1:  Double click on User Certification link [located on the left navigation panel, under User Administration]

 

Step 2:   Double click on List Users.  A list of all users will be displayed.  You have the option to select the program type (All, Public Housing or Voucher) and certification status (All, Pending, Terminated).

 

Step 3:  Click Certify User for any individual who still requires EIV access.  Ensure that each user has a completed EIV Access Authorization form on file, completed annual Security Awareness training and EIV system training.  Do not certify any user who:

1.       Does not have an EIV Access Authorization form on file;

2.       Has not completed annual Security Awareness training; and

3.       Has not completed EIV System training

 

When you click on Certified User, the phrase “Certified User” will be displayed next to the user.  You can then certify the next user .  Repeat this step until you have certified all EIV users needing continued EIV access.
