SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
:
Description: Due to the exceptional
impact of the COVID–19 pandemic,
state and tribal agencies operating child
support programs under title IV–D of
the Social Security Act have faced
significant operational and other
challenges in providing critical child
support services to families. Section 301
of the Stafford Act, 42 U.S.C. 5141,
provides that ‘‘Any Federal agency
charged with the administration of a
Federal assistance program may, if so
requested by the applicant State [or
Indian tribal government] or local
authorities, modify or waive, for a major
disaster, such administrative conditions
for assistance as would otherwise
prevent the giving of assistance under
such programs if the inability to meet
such conditions is a result of the major
disaster.’’ To communicate that child
support agencies may request relief
under the Stafford Act, on May 28,
2020, OCSE published Dear Colleague
Letter 20–04: Flexibilities for State and
Tribal Child Support Agencies during
COVID–19 Pandemic. OCSE seeks
approval of a standardized request form
to collect information from state and
tribal IV–D agencies requesting Stafford
Act administrative flexibilities, due to
the COVID–19 pandemic and according
to OCSE Dear Colleague Letter 20–04.
Respondents: State and tribal agencies
administering a child support program
under title IV–D of the Social Security
Act.
