 Proposed Projects *Title:*
                     Federal Tax Offset, Administrative Offset, and Passport Denial Program. *OMB No.:*
                     0970-0161. *Description:*
                     The Tax Refund Offset and Administrative Offset Programs collect past-due child support by intercepting certain Federal payments, including  Federal tax refunds, of parents who have been ordered to pay child support and who are behind in paying the debt. The program is a cooperative effort among the Department of Treasury's Financial Management Service (FMS), the Federal Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE), and State Child Support Enforcement (CSE) agencies. The Passport Denial program reports non-custodial parents who owe arrears above a threshold to the Department of State (DOS), which will then deny passports to these individuals. On an ongoing basis, CSE agencies submit to OCSE the names, Social Security numbers (SSNs), and the amount(s) of past-due child support of people who are delinquent in making child support payments. *Respondents:*
