SUMMARY: The Office of Grants Management (OGM), in the Administration
for Children and Families (ACF) is requesting a 3-year extension of the
form ACF-OGM-SF-PPR-B (Office of Management and Budget (OMB) #0970-
0406, expiration 1/31/2026). There are minor changes proposed to this
form to align with the requirements in 2 CFR 200.329 and reduce

Additionally, the number of respondents has been reduced based on

aspects of the information collection described above. You can obtain

emailing <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#88e1e6eee7ebe7e4e4edebfce1e7e6c8e9ebeea6e0e0fba6efe7fe"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="ed84838b828e828181888e99848283ad8c8e8bc385859ec38a829b">[email protected]</span></a>. Identify all requests by the title

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The ACF OGM is proposing the continued collection of
program performance data for ACF's discretionary grantees using the
existing ACF-OGM-SF-PPR-B (OMB #0970-0406, expiration 1/31/2026). OMB
grants policy requires recipients to report on performance. Specific
citations are contained in 2 CFR part 200 Uniform Administrative
Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal
Awards.
ACF requests to extend approval of the form with minor changes
proposed to reduce respondent burden. Specifically, ACF proposes to
remove four of the questions on the form. The remaining questions align
directly with the requirements in 2 CFR 200.231. The form, developed by
OGM, was created from the basic template of the OMB-approved reporting
format of the Program Performance Report. OGM uses this data to ensure
recipients are proceeding in a satisfactory manner in meeting the
approved goals and objectives of the project, and to decide if funding
should be continued for another budget period.
Respondents: ACF discretionary grantees. State governments, Native
American Tribal governments, Native American Tribal Organizations,
Local Governments, Universities, and Nonprofits with or without
501(c)(3) status with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
