Proposed Project
Title: Financial Institution Data Match.
OMB No.: New.
Description: Section 372 of Pub. L. 104-193, requires State to
establish procedures under which the State Child support enforcement
(IV-D) agency shall enter into agreements with financial institutions
doing business in the State for the purpose of securing information
leading to the enforcement of child support orders. States will develop
and operate, a data match system in which each financial institution
will provide quarterly the name, record address, social security number
of taxpayer identification number, and other identifying information
for each noncustodial parent who maintains an account at such
institution and who owes past-due support. H.R. 3130, the ``Child
Support Performance and Incentive Act of 1998'', section 506 amends
section 452 and 466(a)(17)(A)(i) of the PRWORA of 1996 to permit the
Secretary of Health and Human Services, through the Federal Parent
Locator Service (FPLS), to aid State CSE agencies in coordinating data
matches with multi-state financial institutions.
Respondents: State, Local or Tribal Government.
