Administration for Children and Families


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Annual Report/ACF 204 (State MOE)--1 collection.
    OMB No.: 0970-0248.
    Description: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is 
requesting a three-year extension of the ACF-204 (Annual MOE Report). 
The report is used to collect descriptive program characteristics 
information on the programs operated by States and Territories in 
association with their Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) 
programs. All State and Territory expenditures claimed toward States 
and Territories MOE requirements must be appropriate, i.e., meet all 
applicable MOE requirements. The Annual MOE Report provides the ability 
to learn about and to monitor the nature of State and Territory 
expenditures used to meet States and Territories MOE requirements, and 
it is an important source of information about the different ways that 
States and Territories are using their resources to help families 
attain and maintain self-sufficiency. In addition, the report is used 
to obtain State and Territory program characteristics for ACFs annual 
report to Congress, and the report serves as a useful resource to use 
in Congressional hearings about how TANF programs are evolving, in 
assessing State the Territory MOE expenditures, and in assessing the 
need for legislative changes.
    Respondents: The 50 States of the United States, the District of 
Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.
