Match With Federally Assisted State Transmitted Levy

AGENCY: Office of Child Support Enforcement, Administration for 
Children and Families, HHS.

ACTION: Request for public comment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Administration for Children and Families' (ACF) Office of 
Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) is requesting a 3-year extension of 
the currently approved Multistate Financial Institution Data Match with 
Federally Assisted State Transmitted Levy (MSFIDM/FAST Levy) (current 
OMB approval expires 1/31/2021).

DATES: Comments due within 30 days of publication. OMB must make a 
decision about the collection of information between 30 and 60 days 
after publication of this document in the Federal Register. Therefore, 
a comment is best assured of having its full effect if OMB receives it 
within 30 days of publication.

ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for the proposed 
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of 
this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. Find this particular 
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Description: State child support enforcement agencies are 
statutorily required to enter into data matching agreements with 
financial institutions doing business in their state to locate 
obligors' accounts. OCSE operates the MSFIDM program through the 
Federal Parent Locator Service (FPLS) and facilitates the required data 
match between state child support agencies and financial institutions 
doing business in multiple states. State child support enforcement 
agencies use the data match outcomes to fulfill a statutory requirement 
to seize an obligor's assets to satisfy overdue child support payments.
    OCSE also operates FAST Levy, which is an automated application 
within the FPLS to exchange electronic lien/levy information securely 
and efficiently. State child support enforcement agencies and 
multistate financial institutions (MSFIs) use FAST Levy to seize 
financial assets more quickly and efficiently.
    Respondents: MSFIs and state child support agencies.
