Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: DRA TANF Final Rule.
    OMB No.: 0970-0338.

Description

    When the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (DRA) reauthorized the 
Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program, it imposed a 
new data requirement that States prepare and submit data verification 
procedures and replaced other data requirements with new versions 
including: the TANF Data Report, the SSP-MOE Data Report, the Caseload 
Reduction Documentation Process, and the Reasonable Cause/Corrective 
Compliance Documentation Process. The Claims Resolution Act of 2010 
extended the TANF program through September 2011. We are proposing to 
continue these information collections without change.
    Respondents: States, Territories and Tribes.
