 *Title:*
                     Provisions of Services in Interstate Child Support. *Enforcement:*
                     Standard Forms. *OMB No.:*
                     0970-0085. *Description:*Public Law 104-193, the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, amended 42 U.S.C. 666 to require State and Territory Child Support Enforcement (CSE) IV-D agencies to enact the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act (UIFSA) into State and Territory law by January 1, 1998. Section 311(b) of UIFSA requires States and Territories to use standard interstate forms. 45 CFR 303.7 also requires CSE IV-D agencies to transmit child support case information on standard interstate forms when referring cases to other States and Territories for processing. During the OMB clearance process, we are taking the opportunity to make revisions that have been requested by the State. Overall, the language, format and instructions have been standardized across the forms. The title of the forms has been changed to “Intergovernmental” to reflect their use by States, Tribes, and foreign countries. For clarity in the Transmittal Initial Request we added a field for Born Out of Wedlock and Date Paternity Established. Instructions for the new fields have been added. Fields to identify Tribal affiliation have been added to all three Transmittals as well as instructions for this field. The instructions have been clarified by highlighting policy information that was included with the instructions so it is distinct and by making the instructions that are common across the forms consistent. Minor changes to common labels across the instructions have been made for consistency,
