Title: Tribal TANF Financial Report
(ACF–196T).
OMB No.: 0970–0345.
Description: Tribes use Form ACF–
196T to report expenditures for the
Tribal TANF grant. Authority to collect
and report this information is found in
the Personal Responsibility and Work
Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996
(PRWORA), Public Law 104–193. Tribal
entities with approved Tribal plans for
implementation of the TANF program
are required by Section 412(h) of the
Social Security Act to report financial
data. Form ACF–196T provides for the
collection of data regarding Federal
expenditures. Failure to collect this data
would seriously compromise the
Administration for Children and
Families’ (ACF) ability to monitor
expenditures. This information is also
used to estimate outlays and may be
used to prepare ACF budget
submissions to Congress. Financial
management of the program would be
seriously compromised if the
expenditure data were not collected.
45 CFR part 286 subpart E requires
the strictest controls on funding
requirements, which necessities review
of documentation in support of Tribal
expenditures for reimbursement.
Comments received from previous
efforts to implement a similar Tribal
TANF report Form ACF–196T were
used to guide ACF in the development
of the product presented with this
submittal.
The American Recovery and
Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009,
Public Law 111–5 has authorized
emergency TANF funds to be awarded
to States, Tribes, and Territories who
meet certain eligibility requirements
written in the legislation. TANF Policy
Announcement TANF–ACF–PA–2009–
01 provides additional guidance on
eligibility requirements. Recipients of
ARRA funds are to report spending and
performance data to Federal agencies
quarterly for posting on the public Web
site, ‘‘Recovery.gov.’’ Federal agencies
are required to collect ARRA
expenditures data and the data must be
clearly distinguishable from the regular
TANF (non-ARRA) funds. Therefore, in
order to meet this data collection
requirement, the ACF–196T has been
modified with the addition of two line
items and a column to report ARRA
expenditures. The collection and
posting of this data is to allow the
public to see where their tax dollars are
spent.
Respondents: All Tribal TANF
Agencies.
