OMB No.: 0970-0311.
Description: Section 453(j)(3) of the Social Security Act (the Act)
allows for matching between the National Directory of New Hires

and State TANF Agencies for purposes of carrying out responsibilities
under programs funded under part A of Title IV of the Act. To assist
OCSE and Office of Family Assistance (OFA) in measuring savings to the
TANF program attributable to the use of NDNH data matches, the State
TANF Agencies have agreed to provide OCSE with a written description of
the performance outputs and outcomes attributable to the State TANF
Agency's use of NDNH match results. This information will help OCSE
demonstrate how the NDNH supports the OCSE's mission and strategic
goals.
Respondents: State TANF Agencies.
