Proposed Information Collection
Activity; Comment Request
Proposed Projects
Title: Child and Family Services Plan,
Annual Progresss and Services Report,
and the CFS–101, Parts I and II.
OMB No. 0980–0047.
Description: Under title IV–B,
subparts 1 and 2, of the Social Security
Act, States and Indian Tribes are to
submit a five-year Child and Family
Services Plan (CFSP) or an Annual
Progresss and Services Report (APSR),
and an annual budget request and
estimated expenditure report (CFS–101).
The CFS–101 is submitted annually
with the CFSP or the APSR to apply for
appropriated funds for the next fiscal
year. The CFSP also includes the
required State plans under section 106
of the Child Abuse Prevention and
Treatment Act (CAPTA) and section 477
of title IV–E, the Chafee Foster Care
Independence Program (CFCIP), of the
Social Security Act (the Act).
Congress has now appropriated funds
for payments to States to implement the
Educational and Training Vouchers
program (ETV) under section 477(a)(6)
and 477(i) of the Act. The ETV program
is integrated into the overall purpose
and framework of the Chafee program;
however, the program has a separate
budget authorization and appropriation
and has a Catalog of Federal Domestic
Assistance (CFDA) number of 93.599. If
a State does not apply for funds for the
ETV program for a fiscal year by July 31
of that year, the funds will be reallocatd
to other States on the basis of their
relative need for funds as requested.
The CFSP and the APSR are being
renewed and the CFS–101 is being
updated to include the request for ETV
funds and to either request or release
funds for reallocation.
Respondents: 275 (50 States, the
District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and
approximately 223 possible Tribal
entities).
