SUMMARY: The Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE), Administration 
for Children and Families (ACF), is requesting the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) to approve the Electronic Document Exchange (EDE),

current OMB approval expires on June 30, 2025.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: The EDE provides a centralized, secure system for 
authorized users in state CSAs to electronically exchange child support 
and spousal support case information with other state child support 
agencies. EDE benefits state CSAs by reducing delays, costs, and 
barriers associated with interstate case processing. It increases state 
collections, improves document security, standardizes data sharing, 
increases state participation, and improves case processing, resulting 
in better overall child and spousal support outcomes. OCSE made minor 
updates to the Portal screens to enhance functionality.
