expertise need to be consulted, tests
need to be performed and reports to
memorialize findings of the review need
to be prepared and filed. Another
respondent noted that a single report
can take up to 100 hours to complete,
including significant legal review.
Another respondent commented that the
‘‘very low estimate’’ seems to ignore the
significant time and costs associated
with training, implementation, and the
risks of liability.
DoD, GSA, and NASA have
completely revised the estimated
number of reports per year because the
rule has been significantly de-scoped
and data was also reviewed regarding
the current number or participating
contractors and the current number of
reports submitted, resulting in an
estimate of 51,657 participating
contractors submitting 5,166 reports per
year.
Industry already has all the
information necessary to prepare a
GIDEP report, based on existing quality
assurance systems and procedures.
However, in response to the industry
comments, DoD, GSA, and NASA have
reconsidered the number of estimated
hours to prepare, review, and submit the
report at an average of 6 hours per
report.

Description: The case studies
proposed as part of the Head Start (HS)
Connects: Individualizing and
Connecting Families to Family Support
Services project are intended to build
knowledge about how Head Start
programs (Head Start or Early Head
Start grantees, delegate agencies, and
staff) across the country coordinate
family well-being services for parents/
guardians and tailor coordination
processes to individual family needs.
The case studies will explore case
management and coordination of family
support services from multiple
perspectives, including from the
perspective of Head Start
Administrators/Family and Community
Partnerships Managers, Family Support
Staff, Other Staff, Parents/Guardians,
and Community Providers, at each of
the six study sites during site visits. The
case studies will further inform the
development of design options for a
large-scale descriptive study of Head
Start programs nationally that is focused
on describing how Head Start programs
coordinate family support services for
parents/guardians.
Respondents: Head Start
Administrator/Family and Community
Partnerships Manager, Head Start
Family Support Staff, Other Head Start
Staff, Parents/Guardians, Community
Providers.

SUMMARY: This is a revision to an
existing data collection which expires

consists of 13 intergovernmental forms
used by states and other entities to
process intergovernmental child support
cases. This request is for minor
revisions to the approved forms.
DATES: Comments due within 60 days of
publication. In compliance with the
requirements of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
the Administration for Children and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: Public Law 104–193, the
Personal Responsibility and Work
Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996,
amended 42 U.S.C. 666 to require State
Child Support Enforcement (CSE)
agencies to enact the Uniform Interstate
Family Support Act (UIFSA) into State
law by January 1, 1998. Section 311(b)
of UIFSA requires the States to use
forms mandated by Federal law. 45 CFR
303.7(a)(4) also requires child support
programs to use federally-approved
forms in intergovernmental IV–D cases
unless a country has provided
alternative forms.
Proposed changes to the forms
include updates for clarification and
consistency to the instructions on all of
the forms. Additional changes include:
• On the Child Support Enforcement
Transmittal #3—Request for Assistance/
Discovery, the addition of a new case
processing action to facilitate payment
processing for a direct Income
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
administering a child support program
under title IV–D of the Social Security
Act.
