Submission for OMB Review; Intergovernmental Reference Guide 
(IRG) (OMB No.: 0970-0209)

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 the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) to approve the Intergovernmental Reference 
Guide (IRG), with content and organizational revisions, for an 
additional three years. The IRG contains state and tribal child support 
information that assists state and tribal child support enforcement 
(CSE) agencies administering their respective programs. The current OMB 
approval expires on January 31, 2022.

DATES: Comments due within 30 days of publication. OMB is required to 
make a decision concerning 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 directly to the following: 
<a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular information 
collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--Open for 
Public Comments'' or by using the search function.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Description: The IRG is a centralized and automated repository of 
state and tribal profiles that contains high-level descriptions of each 
CSE program. These profiles provide state, tribal, and foreign country 
CSE agencies with an effective and efficient method for updating and 
accessing information needed to process intergovernmental child support 
cases. Fourteen comments received after the 60-day Federal Register 
publication and comment period have resulted in revisions to the 
proposed state profile to clarify the content and amend the 
organizational format. No comments were received regarding the proposed 
tribal profile organizational changes.
    Respondents: State and Tribal Child Support Enforcement Agencies.
