and Human Services to promulgate a form for administrative subpoenas to be used in State child support enforcement programs to collect information for use in the establishment, modification and enforcement of child support orders in interstate cases. Section 454(9)(E) of the

State in using the federal form for issuance of administrative subpoenas 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 this form is expiring in February 2011 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.
