Self-Assessment Review and Report (Office of Management and Budget No.: 
0970-0223)

AGENCY: Office of Child Support Enforcement, Administration for 
Children and Families, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

ACTION: Request for public comments.

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

SUMMARY: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of 
Child Support Enforcement (OCSE), is requesting the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) to approve an extension of the State Self-
Assessment Review and Report (SARR) for an additional three years. The 
information collected in the reports helps state child support agencies 
and OCSE determine whether the agencies meet federal child support 
performance requirements. The contact information has been revised. The 
current OMB approval expires May 31, 2025.

DATES: Comments due within 30 days of publication. OMB must decide 
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--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function. You can 
also obtain copies of the proposed collection of information by 
emailing [email protected]. Identify all emailed requests by 
the title of the information collection.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: State child support agencies are statutorily required 
to annually assess the performance of their child support programs and 
to provide a report of the findings to the Secretary of the U.S. 
Department of Health and Human Services. The information collected in 
the SARR is used as a management tool to determine whether states are 
complying with federal mandates and to help states evaluate their 
programs and assess performances. A related notice inviting public 
comment, which published September 4, 2024, (89 FR 71905) referenced 
edits to change OCSE to the Office of Child Support Services. This 
change is no longer relevant and has not been incorporated in the final 
version for OMB review. The contact information was updated with 
current information.
    Respondents: States and territories administering a child support 
program under title IV-D of the Social Security Act.
