Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Tribal TANF Data Report, TANF Annual Report, and Reasonable 
Cause/Corrective Action Documentation Process--Final.
    OMB No.: 0970-0215.
    Description: 42 U.S.C. 612 (section 412 of the Social Security Act 
as amended by Public Law 104-193, the Personal Responsibility and Work 
Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (PRWORA), mandates that 
federally recognized Indian Tribes with an approved Tribal TANF program 
collect and submit to the Secretary of the Department of Health and 
Human Services data on the recipients served by the Tribes programs. 
This information includes both aggregated and disaggregated data on 
case characteristics and individual characteristics. In addition, 
Tribes that are subject to a penalty are allowed to provide reasonable 
cause justifications as to why a penalty should not be imposed or may 
develop and implement corrective compliance procedures to eliminate the 
source of the penalty. Finally, there is an annual report, which 
requires the Tribes to describe program characteristics. All of the 
above requirements are currently approved by OMB and the Administration 
for Children and Families is simply proposing to extend them without 
any changes.
    Respondents: Indian Tribes.
