Proposed Information Collection Activity; Comment Request

Proposed Projects

    Title: Intergovernmental Reference Guide (IRG).
    OMB No.: 0970-0209.
    Description: The Intergovernmental Reference Guide (IRG) is a 
centralized and automated repository of state and tribal profiles, 
which contains high-level descriptions of each state and tribe's child 
support enforcement (CSE) program. These profiles provide state and 
tribal CSE agencies, and foreign countries with an effective and 
efficient method for updating and accessing information needed to 
process intergovernmental child support cases.
    The IRG information collection activities are authorized by: (1) 42 
U.S.C. 652(a)(7), which requires OCSE to provide technical assistance 
to state child support enforcement agencies to help them establish 
effective systems for collecting child and spousal support; (2) 42 
U.S.C. 666(f), which requires states to enact the Uniform Interstate 
Family Support Act; and (3) 45 CFR 303.7, which requires state child 
support agencies to provide services in intergovernmental cases.
    Respondents: All state and tribal CSE agencies.
