SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: Public Law 113-183, the Preventing Sex Trafficking and
Strengthening Families Act amends section 466(f) of the Social Security
Act, requiring all states to enact any amendments to the Uniform
Interstate Family Support Act ``officially adopted as of September 30,
2008, by the National Conference of Commissioners on Uniform State
Laws'' (referred to as UIFSA 2008). Section 311(b) of UIFSA requires
the states to use forms mandated by federal law. 45 CFR 303.7(a)(4)
also requires child support programs to use federally approved forms in
intergovernmental IV-D cases unless a country has provided alternative
forms.
Respondents: State agencies administering a child support program
under title IV-D of the Social Security Act.
Annual Burden Estimates
Annual burden estimates have been updated to reflect a decrease in
the nationwide child support case load since the most recent full OMB
review and approval process in 2023. Therefore, the annual number of
responses per respondent has decreased, resulting in an overall
decrease in estimated annual burden. The number of respondents and
estimated time per response has not changed.
