Student TFN Verification Live Data Report
How to read this report
The report shows higher education (HE) relevant students’ identifiers where a TFN is UNVERIFIED. By default, the report shows students delayed loans incurred prior to 1 July 2022 due to an UNVERIFIED TFN. Providers need to report the correct TFN in TCSI for these students with a HELP debt as a matter of priority.
The following table identifies the components that are used to construct the report:
| Field | Coding notes |

| E584 – USI | Uses the reported E584: Unique Student Identifier value. |
| A167 – TFN Verification Status | Uses the system generated A167 value. |
| Delayed Loans | Count of Delayed Loans – Uses the system generated UID21 value |
| Loan Amount | Total loan amounts for the student – E558: HELP loan amount |
| Earliest Incurral Date | Minimum (Earliest) Incurral Date - Uses the reported E527: HELP Debt Incurral Date |
