AGENCY: Office of Child Support Enforcement, Administration for

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 Current Population Survey-Child 
Support Supplement (CPS-CSS), with minor revisions, for an additional 
three years. The current OMB approval expires on August 31, 2022.

the title of the information collection.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: The CPS-CSS collects detailed information on support 
agreements and awards, including both required payments and amounts 
received, as well as data about the socioeconomic characteristics of 
custodial parents and their families. Data collected pertaining to 
child support, and the subsequent analysis of survey data, will assist 
legislators and policymakers in determining the efficacy of various 
child support legislation. Minor changes are being proposed for the 
2023 information collection.
    Respondents: Individuals and households.
    Annual Burden Estimates: On February 2, 2022 ACF invited comments 
on this information collection (87 FR 6568). During this time, the U.S. 
Census Bureau informed the Office of Child Support Enforcement that it 
planned to change the way in which the questions were fielded. In 
previous years, all households were asked an initial set of questions 
and a select number were asked the remaining questions. To improve data 
quality, fewer households will be asked to participate, but they will 
be asked all questions on the survey. This change reduces the overall 
number of respondents significantly (34,500 to 3,600) but increases the 
time per response from about 2 minutes to about 20 minutes. The 
following estimates reflect estimates based on this new approach.
