What does EIV stand for and what is its role?

It pulls income information from multiple sources to confirm what applicants or participants report, helps detect discrepancies across programs, and supports accurate eligibility determinations and rent calculations. It’s not related to insurance, not limited to address history, and it covers all income sources used to determine eligibility, not just wages.
