SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The Annual MOE Report is used to collect descriptive
program characteristics information on the programs operated by states
and territories in association with their Temporary Assistance for
Needy Families (TANF) programs. All state and territory expenditures
claimed toward states and territories MOE requirements must be
appropriate, i.e., meet all applicable MOE requirements. The Annual MOE
Report provides the ability to learn about and to monitor the nature of
state and territory expenditures used to meet states and territories
MOE requirements, and it is an important source of information about
the different ways that states and territories are using their
resources to help families attain and maintain self-sufficiency. In
addition, the report is used to obtain state and territory program
characteristics for ACFs annual report to Congress, and the report
serves as a useful resource to use in Congressional hearings about how
TANF programs are evolving, in assessing state and the territory MOE
expenditures, and in assessing the need for legislative changes.
Respondents: The 50 States of the United States, the District of
Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.
