Title: Federal Tax Offset, 

Administrative Offset, and Passport 

Denial Program. 

OMB No.: 0970–0161. 

Description: The Tax Refund Offset 

and Administration Offset Programs 

collect past-due child support by 

intercepting certain Federal payments, 

including Federal tax refunds, of 

parents who have been ordered to pay 

child support and who are behind in 

paying the debt. The program is a 

cooperative effort among the 

Department of Treasury’s Financial 

Management Service (FMS), the Federal 

Office of Child Support Enforcement 

(OCSE), and State Child Support 

Enforcement (CSE) agencies. The 

Passport Denial program reports noncustodial parents who owe arrears above 

a threshold to the Department of State 

(DOS), which will then deny passports 

to these individuals. On an ongoing 

basis, CSE agencies submit to OCSE the 

names, Social Security numbers (SSNs), 

and the amount(s) of past-due child 

support of people who are delinquent in 

making child support payments. 

Respondents: State IV–D Agencies.

Title: Child Care and Development 

Fund Quarterly Financial Report (ACF–

696). 

OMB No.: 0970–0163. 

Description: States and Territories use 

this form to report expenditures for the 

Child Care and Development fund 

(CCDF) on a quarterly basis. The form, 

which is also available electronically 

through a Web-based application, 

provides specific data regarding 

expenditures, obligations, and 

estimates. It provides states and 

Territories with a mechanism to request 

grant awards and certify the availability 

of State matching funds. Failure to 

collect this data could seriously 

compromise the ability of the 

Administration for Children and 

Families (ACF) to monitor expenditures. 

This form may also be used to prepare 

ACF budget submissions to Congress. 

Office and Management Budget 

approval for the current form expires on 

March 31, 2007. 

Respondents: States and Territories 

that are CCDF grantees.
