child support agencies to enter into
agreements with financial institutions
doing business in their state for the
purpose of securing information leading
to the enforcement of child support

orders. Under 452(m) and
466(a)(17)(A)(i) of the Act, the Secretary
may aid state agencies conducting data
matches with financial institutions
doing business in two or more states by
establishing a centralized and
standardized matching program through
the Federal Parent Locator Service.
To further assist states collect child
support, the federal Office of Child
Support Enforcement (OCSE) worked
with child support agencies and
financial institutions to develop the
Federally Assisted State Transmitted
(FAST) Levy system.
FAST Levy is a central, standardized,
and secure electronic process for child
support agencies and financial
institutions to exchange information
about levying financial accounts to
collect past-due support. OCSE picks up
files created by child support agencies
that contain FAST Levy requests and
distributes them to financial institutions
that use the FAST Levy system. Those
financial institutions create response
files that OCSE picks up and distributes
to the child support agencies.
The MSFIDM/FAST-Levy information
collection activities are authorized by:
42 U.S.C. 652(m), which authorizes
OCSE, through the Federal Parent
Locator Service, to aid state child
support agencies and financial
institutions doing business in two or
more states reach agreements regarding
the receipt from financial institutions,
and the transfer to the state child
support agencies, of information
pertaining to the location of accounts
held by obligors who owe past-due
support; 42 U.S.C. 666(a)(2) and
(c)(1)(G)(ii), which require state child
support agencies in cases in which there
is an arrearage to establish procedures to
secure assets to satisfy any current
support obligation and the arrearage by
attaching and seizing assets of the
obligor held in financial institutions; 42
U.S.C. 666(a)(17)(A), which requires
state child support agencies to establish
procedures under which the state child
support agencies shall enter into
agreements with financial institutions
doing business in the State to develop
and operate, in coordination with
financial institutions, and the Federal
Parent Locator Service (in the case of
financial institutions doing business in
two or more States), a data match
system, using automated data exchanges
to the maximum extent feasible, in
which a financial institution is required
to quarterly provide information
pertaining to a noncustodial parent
owing past-due support who maintains
an account at the institution and, in
response to a notice of lien or levy,
encumber or surrender, assets held; 42

help them establish effective systems for
collecting child and spousal support;
and, 45 CFR 303.7(a)(5), which requires
state child support agencies to transmit

Title: Evaluation of Employment
Coaching for TANF and Other LowIncome Populations.
OMB No.: New Collection.
Description: The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF) is
proposing a data collection activity as
part of the Evaluation of Employment
Coaching for TANF and Other LowIncome Populations. This study will
provide an opportunity to learn more
about the potential of coaching to help
clients achieve self-sufficiency and
other desired employment-related
outcomes. It will take place over five
years in up to three employment
programs. These programs may be
Temporary Assistance for Needy
Families (TANF) agencies or other
public or private employment programs
that serve low-income individuals.
Selected sites will include a robust
coaching component and have the
capacity to conduct a rigorous impact
evaluation, among other criteria. This
study will provide information on
whether coaching helps people obtain
and retain jobs, advance in their careers,
move toward self-sufficiency, and
improve their overall well-being. To
meet these objectives, this study will
include an impact and implementation
study.
PO 00000
Frm 00043
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
The impact study will involve
participants being randomly assigned to
either a ‘‘program group,’’ who will be
paired with a coach, or to a ‘‘control
group,’’ who will not be paired with a
coach. The effectiveness of the coaching
will be determined by differences
between members of the program and
control groups in outcomes such as
obtaining and retaining employment,
earnings, measures of self-sufficiency,
and measures of self-regulation.
The implementation study will
document coaching practices, describe
lessons learned from implementing
coaching, and enhance interpretation of
the impact study findings.
The proposed information collection
activities are: (1) Baseline data
collection: Collection of characteristics
data on all study participants as they
enroll in the study. Data will be entered
into the Random Assignment,
Participant Tracking Enrollment, and
Reporting (RAPTER) system; (2) First
follow-up survey: Collection of outcome
data for a subset of study participants
about 9 months after random
assignment; (3) Semi-structured staff
interviews: Collection of qualitative data
on the design and implementation of the
program; (4) Staff survey: Collection of
information on staff members’
professional backgrounds, training,
coaching practices, and attitudes; (5) Indepth participant interviews: Collection
of detailed information about the
participants’ backgrounds and
experiences with coaching; (6) Staff
reports of program service receipt:
Collection of data on coaching and other
program services received by study
