0370)
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), Administration
for Children and Families (ACF), is requesting the federal Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) approve the ``Child Support Portal
Registration,'' with minor revisions, for an additional three years.
The OCSS Child Support Portal (``Portal'') contains applications to
help state child support agencies administer their programs. Authorized
Portal users must register with OCSS to access Portal applications and
provide OCSS with certain Portal application preferences. The current
OMB approval expires on February 28, 2025.
DATES: Comments due January 8, 2025. OMB must make a decision about the
collection of information between 30 and 60 days after publication of
this document in the Federal Register. Therefore, a comment is best
assured of having its full effect if OMB receives it within 30 days of
publication.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of
this notice to <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: OCSS maintains the Portal, which contains various
applications through which authorized users may view, update, upload,
or download information for child support purposes. Authorized users
must register to access the Portal. The OCSS Portal authenticates
registrants and then creates secure profiles for authorized users for
employers, insurers, and financial institutions based on information
provided in the Employer Services Profile and Insurance Match Debt
Inquiry Portal Agreement and Profile forms. Information provided in the
electronic National Medical Support Notice (e-NMSN), the electronic
Incoming Withholding Order (e-IWO), and the Federally Assisted State
Transmitted (FAST) Levy Financial Institution Profile forms gives OCSS
the necessary information to set up the respective program user's
process and capture preferences. State child support agencies manage
and authenticate authorization for individual users via the state proxy
server; therefore, a Portal Registration form is not required. State
users must, however, provide OCSS with their respective Portal
preferences. The information OCSS collects for the Portal registration
and profiles remains the same but they underwent minor clarification
revisions and edits to update ``Office of Child Support Enforcement
(OCSE)'' to ``Office of Child Support Services (OCSS).'' OCSS revised
the ``Registration Screen'' burden after the 60-day notice published to
correctly reflect the current number of respondents and removed
``agreement'' from the Employer Services Profile form. OCSS also
removed the e-NMSN Plan Administrator form because there are no
respondents.
Respondents: Employers, Financial Institutions, Insurers, and State
Child Support Agencies.
