Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request
Title: Federal Case Registry (FCR).
OMB No.: 0970-0421.
Description: States are required to create and update a State Case
Registry (SCR) within their statewide automated child support systems,
to include information on cases enforced by state child support
agencies (IV-D) and cases not enforced by those agencies (non-IV-D),
including cases enforced by the courts.
The Federal Case Registry (FCR) consisting of child support orders
informs states which other state(s) has information on cases or
participants of interest to them. States are required to furnish to the
FCR the minimum amount of information on child support cases (including
updates to those cases) recorded in the SCR that is necessary to
operate the FCR. The information alerts states to other states that
have registered the same individual. The FCR automatically provides
states with address, employment, and unemployment information to locate
these parents and their employers to either establish or enforce a
child support order. This information collection pertains to
information collected from courts and transmitted to the FCR.
The activities associated with this information collection are
authorized by (1) 42 U.S.C. 654a(e)which requires that state child
support agencies establish, update, maintain, and monitor an automated
state case registry containing records pertaining to cases enforced by
the child support agencies and order information pertaining to all
cases, including cases not enforced by the child support agencies,
using standardized data elements and including payment records; and (2)
42 U.S.C. 654a(f)(1), which requires states to furnish certain state
case registry information to the FCR, an automated registry established
within the Federal Parent Locator Service, to assist state child
support enforcement agencies and for other purposes.
Respondents: State Child Support Agencies and Courts.
