The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 (PRWORA) amended the Social Security Act and imposed certain data collection requirements including section 411(b)(3) (data collection and reporting), which requires the annual reporting of the characteristics of programs funded by PRWORA. These requirements are also discussed in Part 265 of the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families Program (TANF) final rule that was published on April 12, 1999. The requirement remains unchanged under the Deficit Reduction Act of 2006 and the TANF Reauthorization Interim Final Rule. Instructions have been revised and burden estimates reflect those updates.

Miscellaneous Actions
This request is for a revision of the information collection under OMB #0970-0248. Reporting requirements have not changed since the last renewal of this information collection in 2022. However, text was added to the instructions to reflect that states may reference their TANF State Plan or previous submissions in leiu of re-submitting particular data elements. This new instruction led to a reduction in the estimate of burden; estimated costs have been adjusted accordingly and reflect the latest BLS data available.
