SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Description: The Current Population Survey-Child Support Supplement 
collects detailed information about child support agreements and 
awards, including both required payments and amounts received, as well 
as data about the socioeconomic characteristics of custodial parents 
and their families. Data collected pertaining to child support, and the 
subsequent analysis of survey data, will assist legislators and 
policymakers in determining the efficacy of various child support 
legislation.
    Minor changes are being proposed for the 2023 information 
collection. Changes include deleting extraneous questions, updating 
language, and adding a few questions about customer satisfaction with 
the child support program. We do not anticipate that these

changes will affect the overall burden to respond to this information 
collection.
    Respondents: Individuals and households.
