Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Work Participation and TANF/WIA Coordination Project.
    OMB No.: New collection.
    Description: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is 
proposing an information collection activity as part of the Work 
Participation and TANF/WIA Coordination Project. The proposed 
information collection consists of semi-structured interviews with key 
state/and or local Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) and 
Work Investment Act (WIA) respondents on questions of engagement in 
additional work activities and expenditures of other benefits and 
services as well as questions concerning TANF/WIA Coordination. Through 
this information collection, ACF seeks to elucidate the data presented 
in reports submitted by states to the ACF Office of Family Assistance 
(OFA) as required by the Claims Resolution Act of 2010. This collection 
is separate from the state reports to OFA required by the Act. In 
addition, it will provide documentation of positive TANF/WIA 
coordination activities.
    Respondents: State and/or local administrators responsible for the 
TANF and WIA Programs.
