Proposed Information Collection Activity; ``State SNAP Agency
NDNH Matching Program Performance Report'' (Office of Management Budget
#0970-0464)
AGENCY: Office of Child Support Services, Administration for Children
and Families, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
ACTION: Request for public comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Office of Child Support Services (OCSS) is requesting the
federal Office of Management and Budget (OMB)approve the ``State SNAP
Agency NDNH Matching Program Performance Report,'' with minor
revisions, for an additional three years. State agencies administering
their Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) provide the
annual performance report to OCSS in accordance with the computer
matching agreement between state SNAP agencies and OCSS. The current
OMB approval expires on February 28, 2025.
DATES: Comments due within 60 days of publication. In compliance with
the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the
Administration for Children and Families is soliciting public comment
on the specific aspects of the information collection described above.
ADDRESSES: To submit comments and obtain copies of the proposed
collection of information, email <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#80e9eee6efe3efecece5e3f4e9efeec0e1e3e6aee8e8f3aee7eff6"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="a7cec9c1c8c4c8cbcbc2c4d3cec8c9e7c6c4c189cfcfd489c0c8d1">[email protected]</span></a>. Identify
all requests by the title of the information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: State agencies administering SNAP are mandated to
participate in a computer matching program with OCSS. The matching
program compares SNAP applicant and recipient information with
employment and wage information maintained in the National Directory of
New Hires (NDNH). The outcomes of the compared information help state
SNAP agencies verify an individual's identity and determine a benefit
eligibility. To receive NDNH information, state agencies enter into a
computer matching agreement and adhere to its terms and conditions,
including providing OCSS with annual performance outcomes attributable
to the use of NDNH information. To fulfill OMB requirements, OCSS
periodically reports performance measurements demonstrating how the use
of information in the NDNH supports the OCSS strategic mission, goals,
and objectives. These periodic reports include information derived from
state SNAP agency annual NDNH performance reports. OCSS provides states
with required performance report templates and instructions, which
underwent minor language edits.
Respondents: State SNAP Agencies.
