Families is soliciting public comment
on the specific aspects of the
information collection described above.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: Public Law 104–193, the

agencies to enact the Uniform Interstate
Family Support Act (UIFSA) into State

processing action to facilitate payment

Withholding Order, and the revision of
the payment forwarding action.
• On the Declaration in Support of
Establishing Parentage, the revision of
the declaration signature section to
make it consistent with the General
Testimony and more flexible for cases
involved children in foster care.
Respondents: State agencies
