Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Revised Form OCSE-100, State Plan for Child Support 
Collection and Establishment of Paternity Under Title IV-D of the 
Social Security Act.
    OMB No.: 0970-0017.
    Description: The State plan preprint and amendments serve as a 
contract with OCSE in outlining the activities the States will perform 
as required by law in order for States to receive Federal funds to meet 
the costs of these activities. This final rule serves to eliminate 
regulations, in part or in whole, which were rendered obsolete by or 
inconsistent with, the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Act 
of 1996 (PRWORA), the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 (BBA) and the 
Adoption and Safe Families Act of 1997. All of the required new and 
revised State plan preprints were approved by OMB July 7, 1997 
(expiring July 31,

2000) and February 18, 1998 (expiring February 28, 2001), both under 
OMB No. 0970-0017. Also, new forms were approved by OMB No. 0970-0085 
(Standard Interstate Forms), 0970-0152 (Lien and Subpoena Forms), and 
0970-0154 (Wage Withholding Form). The final rule will update the State 
plan by removing the State plan preprint page for Section 3.12, Payment 
of Support thorough the IV-D agency or Other Entity. Section 314(c) of 
PRWORA repealed Section 466(c) of the Act. 45 CFR 302.57 is being 
removed by the final rule as it implemented Section 466(c). The 
requirements for State plan preprint page 3.12 are now covered by 
Section 3.14, Collection and Disbursement of Support Payments. The 
information collected on the State plan pages is necessary to enable 
OCSE to monitor compliance with the requirements in Title IV-D of the 
Social Security Act and implementing regulations.
    Respondents: State, Local or Tribal Government.
