Registration (OMB No.: 0970-0370)
AGENCY: Office of Child Support Enforcement, Administration for
Children and Families, Health and Human Services (HHS).
ACTION: Request for public comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE), Administration
for Children and Families (ACF), is requesting the federal Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) approve the ``Child Support Portal
Registration,'' with revisions, for an additional three years. OCSE's
Child Support Portal (``Portal'') contains applications to assist state
child support agencies with administering their programs. Authorized
Portal users must register with OCSE to access Portal applications and
provide OCSE with certain preferences. The current OMB approval expires
on February 28, 2022.
DATES: Comments due within 60 days of publication. In compliance with
the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, ACF is
soliciting public comment on the specific aspects of the information
collection described above.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed collection of information can be
obtained and comments may be forwarded by emailing
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#a1c8cfc7cec2cecdcdc4c2d5c8cecfe1c0c2c78fc9c9d28fc6ced7"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="660f08000905090a0a0305120f090826070500480e0e1548010910">[email protected]</span></a>. Alternatively, copies can also be obtained
by writing to the Administration for Children and Families, Office of
Planning, Research, and Evaluation (OPRE), 330 C Street SW, Washington,
DC 20201, Attn: ACF Reports Clearance Officer. All requests, emailed or
written, should be identified by the title of the information
collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: OCSE's Division of Federal Systems maintains the
Portal, which contains various applications that authorized users may
view, update, and upload or download information for child support
purposes. OCSE creates secure profiles for authorized users for
employers, insurers, and financial institutions based on information
provided in the Employer Services and Insurance Match Debt Inquiry
Portal Registration forms. OCSE added the electronic National Medical
Support Notice (e-NMSN), the electronic Incoming Withholding Order (e-
IWO), and Multistate Financial Institution Data Match FAST Levy (MSFIDM
FAST LEVY) Profile forms, which provide OCSE with information to set up
the respective program user's process and capture preferences. State
child support agencies manage and authenticate authorization for
individual users via the state proxy server; therefore, a Portal
Registration form is not required. State users must, however, provide
OCSE with their respective Portal preferences.
Respondents: Employers, Financial Institutions, Insurers, and State
Child Support Agencies.
