Abstract: The federal Office of Child Support Enforcement, Division of Federal Systems, maintains the Child Support Portal, which contains a variety of child support applications to help enforce state child support cases. To securely access the child support applications, authorized users must register to use the Child Support Services Portal. Information collected from the registration form is used to authenticate and authorized users. After identities are verified, authorized users create secure accounts to use the child support applications for which they are authorized. OMB approved the Child Support Portal Registration on February 8, 2022, for an additional three years, followed by an August 19, 2022, approval of non-substantive changes to the contact email address on all of the profile forms. This request is for OMB to approve minor language revisions to the “Employer Services” and e-IWO profile forms, and to approve online versions of respective forms. OCSS developed the Employer Services and e-IWO online profile forms to give registrants an option to submit the required information via the Child Support Portal. The online forms, in general, will collect the same information as the PDF version of the profile forms; however, there are slight differences between the two options. See the nonsubstantive change justification memo for additional information.
