Proposed Projects
Title: Intergovernmental Reference Guide (IRG).
OMB No.: 0970-0209.
Description: The Intergovernmental Reference Guide (IRG) is a
centralized and automated repository of state and tribal profiles,
which contains high-level descriptions of each state and tribe's child
support enforcement (CSE) program. These profiles provide state and
tribal CSE agencies, and foreign countries with an effective and
efficient method for updating and accessing information needed to
process intergovernmental child support cases.
The IRG information collection activities are authorized by: (1) 42
U.S.C. 652(a)(7), which requires OCSE to provide technical assistance
to state child support enforcement agencies to help them establish
effective systems for collecting child and spousal support; (2) 42
U.S.C. 666(f), which requires states to enact the Uniform Interstate
Family Support Act; and (3) 45 CFR 303.7, which requires state child
support agencies to provide services in intergovernmental cases.
Respondents: All state and tribal CSE agencies.
