of Contents and Cover Sheet for plan pages.

title of the information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Description: The final rule within 45 CFR
part 309, published in the Federal Register on March 30, 2004, contains
a regulatory reporting requirement that, in order to receive funding
for a Tribal IV-D program, a tribe or tribal organization must submit a
plan describing how the tribe or tribal organization meets or plans to
meet the objectives of section 455(f) of the Social Security Act,
including establishing paternity; establishing, modifying, and
enforcing support orders; and locating noncustodial parents. The plan
is required for all tribes requesting funding; however, once a tribe
has met the requirements to operate a comprehensive program, a new plan
is not required annually unless a tribe makes changes to its title IV-D
program. If a tribe or tribal organization intends to make any
substantial or material changes, a Tribal IV-D plan amendment must be
submitted for approval. Tribes and tribal organizations must have an
approved plan and submit any required plan amendments in order to
receive funding to operate a Tribal IV-D program. With this request to
extend approval of this information collection, OCSE is proposing a
change to the paperwork collection by providing optional plan pages.
The optional plan pages organize the Tribal IV-D plan, identify
required attachments, and streamline plan amendment submissions. Tribes
and tribal organizations who choose to participate will attest to
complying with the regulatory requirements in 45 CFR, Parts 309 and 310
and submit plan amendments for changes to the required attachments
identified in the Table of Contents. The optional plan pages organize
the Tribal IV-D plan, identify required attachments, and streamline
plan amendment submissions.
Respondents: Tribes and tribal Organizations.
