Administration for Children and Families


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: IV-E Foster Care and Adoption Assistance Financial Report 
(IV-E-1).
    OMB No.: 0970-0205.
    Titled: Financial Reporting Form.
    Description: This form is used by states, the District of Columbia 
and Puerto Rico9 to facilitate the reporting of expenditures for the 
Foster Care and Adoption Assistance programs. State agencies (including 
the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico) use this form to report data 
on a quarterly basis. The form provides specific data regarding 
financial disbursements, obligations and estimates. It provides states 
with a mechanism to request grant awards and certify the availability 
of state matching funds. Failure to collect this data would seriously 
compromise the Administration for Children and Families' (ACF) ability 
to issue grant awards monitor expenditures. This form is also used to 
prepare the ACF budget submission to Congress. ACF is implementing the 
On-Line Data Collection System (OLDC) to allow grantees the option to 
electronically submit the data.
    Respondents: States, District of Columbia and Puerto Rico Annual 
Burden Estimates.
