SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: The FCR is a national database of information 
pertaining to child support cases processed by state child support 
agencies, referred to as ``IV-D'' cases, and non-IV-D support orders 
privately established or modified by courts or tribunals on or after 
October 1, 1998. FCR information is comprised of child support orders 
and case information from each State Case Registry (SCR). The FCR 
automatically compares new SCR submissions to existing FCR information 
and to wage and employment information in the National Directory of New 
Hires. The Federal Parent Locator Service notifies state agencies if a 
IV-D case participant in the state matches a participant in a IV-D or 
non-IV-D case in another state and supplies any matched wage and 
employment information. Matches enable state agencies to locate parties 
that live in different states to establish, modify, or enforce child 
support obligations; to establish paternity; to enforce state law 
regarding parental kidnapping; and to establish or enforce child 
custody or visitation determinations.
    The FCR instrument, Appendix G: Input Record Layout, contains minor 
changes in punctuation, formatting, grammar, clarity, and spacing to 
enable easier completion of the form.
    Respondents: State child support enforcement agencies.
