Proposed Information Collection Activity; Comment Request

Proposed Projects

    Title: DRA TANF Final Rule.
    OMB No.: 0970-0338.
    Description: When the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (DRA) 
reauthorized the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) 
program, it imposed a new data requirement that States prepare and 
submit data verification procedures and replaced other data 
requirements with new versions including: the TANF Data Report, the 
SSP-MOE Data Report, the Caseload Reduction Documentation Process, and 
the Reasonable Cause/Corrective Compliance Documentation Process. The 
FY2017 Consolidated Appropriations Act (H.R. 244) provides federal 
funds to operate Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) 
programs in the states, DC, Guam, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, 
and for approved federally recognized tribes and Alaskan Native 
Villages through FY2018. We are proposing to continue these information 
collections without change.
    Respondents: The 50 States of the United States, the District of 
Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.
