Title: Interstate Administrative Subpoena and Notice of Interstate
Lien.

Description: Section 452(a)(11) of the Social Security Act requires
the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services to
promulgate a form for administrative subpoenas and imposition of liens
used by State child support enforcement (title IV-D) agencies. The
Interstate Administrative Subpoena is used to collect information for
the establishment, modification and enforcement of child support orders
in interstate cases. Section 454(9)(E) of the Social Security Act
requires each State to cooperate with any other State in using the
federal form for issuance of administrative subpoenas and imposition of
liens in interstate child support cases. Tribal IV-D agencies are not
required to use this form but may choose to do so. OMB approval of
these forms are expiring in December, 2016 and the Administration for
Children and Families is requesting an extension of this form.
Respondents: State, local or Tribal agencies administering a child
support enforcement program under title IV-D of the Social Security
Act.
