Proposed Information Collection
Activity; Comment Request
Proposed Projects
Title: Itemized Undistributed
Collections (Schedule UDC).
OMB No.: 0970–0268.
Description: State agencies
administering the Child Support
Enforcement Program under Title IV–D
of the Social Security Act are required
to provide information each fiscal
quarter to the Office of Child Support
Enforcement (OCSE) concerning
administrative expenditures and the
receipt and disposition of child support
payments from non-custodial parents
(Forms OCSE–396A and OCSE–34A—
OMB NO. 0970–0181). Together with a
third quarterly report, ‘‘Itemized
Undistributed Collections,’’ these forms
provide information from each State
that is used to compute the quarterly
grant awards, the annual incentive
payments and provide valuable
information on program finances. This
information is also included in a
published annual statistical and
financial report, available to the general
public.
Public Law 109–171, the Deficit
Reduction Act of 2005, contains a
number of provisions that will impact
the States’ completion and submission
of these quarterly financial reports.
These changes become effective in fiscal
years 2006, 2007 and 2008. These
changes require revisions to some of the
data entry lines and reporting
instructions currently contained on
these forms. In addition, a periodic
review of the data currently requested
on these forms will assure that OCSE
collects the information needed in the
most efficient format feasible.
Respondents: State agencies
administering the Child Support
Enforcement Program.
