                SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
                 Description: The final rule within 45 CFR part 309, published in
                the Federal Register on March 30, 2004, contains a regulatory reporting
                requirement that, in order to receive funding for a Tribal IV-D program
                a Tribe or Tribal organization must submit a plan describing how the
                Tribe or Tribal organization meets or plans to meet the objectives of
                section 455(f) of the Social Security Act, including establishing
                paternity; establishing, modifying, and enforcing support orders; and
                locating noncustodial parents. The plan is required for all Tribes
                requesting funding; however, once a Tribe has met the requirements to
                operate a comprehensive program, a new plan is not required annually
                unless a Tribe makes changes to its title IV-D program. If a Tribe or
                Tribal organization intends to make any substantial or material
                changes, a Tribal IV-D plan amendment must be submitted for approval.
                Tribes and Tribal organizations must have an approved plan and submit
                any required plan amendments in order to receive funding to operate a
                Tribal IV-D program. This paperwork collection activity is set to
                expire in March 2020.
                 Respondents: Tribes and Tribal Organizations.
