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.
