Title: TANF High Performance Bonus Report for Fiscal Year 1999 and
Emergency TANF Data Report [previously approved OMB Number 0970-0164].
OMB No.: New.
Description: Pub. L. 104-193 (the Personal Responsibility and Work
Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996) established the Temporary
Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) Program. It also included
provisions for rewarding States which attain the highest levels of
success in achieving the legislative goals of that program. The purpose
of this collection is to obtain data upon which to base the
computations for measuring State performance in meeting those goals and
for allocating the bonus grant funds appropriated under the law.

Respondents: States, Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands, and the
District of Columbia.

program or would be required to submit other supplement data.
