Proposed Information Collection 

Activity; Comment Request 

Proposed Projects: 

Title: Supplemental Nutrition 

Assistance Program (SNAP) Agency 

Matching Program Performance 

Reporting Tool. 

OMB No.: New Collection. 

Description: State agencies 

administering a Supplemental Nutrition 

Assistance Program (SNAP) are 

mandated to participate in a computer 

matching program with the federal 

Office of Child Support Enforcement 

(OCSE). The outcomes of the 

computerized comparisons with 

information maintained in the National 

Directory of New Hires (NDNH) provide 

the state SNAP agencies with 

information to help administer their 

programs and in determining an 

individual’s eligibility. State agencies 

must enter into a computer matching 

agreement and adhere to its terms and 

conditions, including providing OCSE 

with annual performance outcomes 

attributable to the use of NDNH 

information. 

The Office of Management and Budget 

requires OCSE to periodically report 

performance measurements 

demonstrating how the use of 

information in the NDNH supports 

OCSE’s strategic mission, goals, and 

objectives. OCSE will provide the 

annual SNAP performance outcomes to 

the Office of Management and Budget. 

The information collection activities 

for the SNAP reports are authorized by: 

(1) Subsection 453 (j)(10) of the Social 

Security Act (42 U.S.C. 653(j)(10)), 

which allows the Secretary of the U.S. 

Department of Health and Human 

Services to disclose information 

maintained in the NDNH to state 

agencies administering SNAP under the 

Nutrition Act of 2008, as amended by 

the Agriculture Act of 2014; (2) the 

Privacy Act of 1974, as amended by the 

Computer Matching and Privacy 

Protection Act of 1988 (5 U.S.C. 552a), 

which sets for the terms and conditions 

of a computer matching program; and 

(3) the Government Performance and 

Results Modernization Act of 2010 (Pub. 

L. 111–352), which requires agencies to 

report program performance outcomes 

to the Office of Management and Budget 

and for the reports to be available to the 

public. 

Respondents: State SNAP agencies.
