Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Guidance for the Tribal Temporary Assistance for Needy 
Families (TANF) Program.
    OMB No.: 0970-0157.
    Description: 42 U.S.C. 612 (Section 412 of the Social Security Act) 
requires each Indian Tribe that elects to administer and operate a TANF 
program to submit a TANF Tribal Plan. The TANF Tribal Plan is a 
mandatory statement submitted to the Secretary by the Indian Tribe, 
which consists of an outline of how the Indian Tribe's TANF program 
will be administered and operated. It is used by the Secretary to 
determine whether the plan is approvable and to determine that the 
Indian Tribe is eligible to receive a TANF assistance grant. It is also 
made available to the public.
    The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is proposing to 
revise the guidance by adding a certification page and is requesting 
additional details regarding economic development. ACF expects the 
additional information to add an estimated eight burden hours to each 
Indian Tribe's submission. This is reflected in the annual burden 
estimates shown below.
    Respondents: Indian Tribes applying to operate a TANF program.
