The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), specifically the Office of Child Support Services (OCSS), is asking the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval to continue using the Child Support Annual Data Report and Instructions (OCSS-157) with some minor changes for three more years. This request is open for public comments until February 20, 2025. The report helps collect data from state child support agencies on various aspects of child support, which ACF uses to report to Congress, calculate performance incentives, and monitor state programs. The current approval for this report expires on March 31, 2025.
Simple Explanation
The government is asking for permission to keep using a special form that helps them collect information about child support for another three years. They want people to say what they think about this until February 20, 2025.
