Proposed Information Collection 

Activity; Comment Request 

Proposed Projects 

Title: Tribal TANF (Temporary 

Assistance for Needy Families) 

Financial Report, Form ACF–196T. 

Description: Authority to collect and 

report this information is found in the 

Personal Responsibility and Work 

Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 

(PRWORA), Pub. L. 104–193. Tribal 

entities with approved Tribal plans for 

implementation of the TANF program 

are required by statute to report 

financial data. Form ACF–196T 

provides for collection of Federal 

expenditures data. Failure to collect this 

data would seriously compromise the 

Administration for Children and 

Families’ (ACF) ability to monitor 

expenditures and maintain financial 

management of the Tribal TANF 

program. The financial data collected is 

also used to estimate outlays and may 

be used to prepare ACF budget 

submissions to Congress. Federal policy 

requires the strictest controls on funding 

requirements, which necessitates review 

of documentation in support of Tribal 

expenditures for reimbursement. 

Comments received from a previous 

effort to implement a similar Tribal 

TANF report Form ACR–196T were 

used to guide ACF in the development 

of the updated report form presented 

with this submittal. 

Respondents: All Tribal TANF 

Agencies.

In compliance with the requirements 

of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the 

Administration for Children and 

Families is soliciting public comment 

on the specific aspects of the 

information collection described above. 

Copies of the proposed collection of 

information can be obtained and 

comments may be forwarded by writing 

to the Administration for Children and 

Families, Office of Administration, 

Office of Information Services, 370 

L’Enfant Promenade, SW., Washington, 

DC 20447, Attn: ACF Reports Clearance 

Officer. E-mail address: 

infocollection@acf.hhs.gov. All requests 

should be identified by the title of the 

information collection. 

The Department specifically requests 

comments on: (a) Whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information shall have 

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information; (c) 

the quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (d) 

ways to minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on 

respondents, including through the use 

of automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

Consideration will be given to 

comments and suggestions submitted 

within 60-days of this publication.
