Abstract:
The Improper Payments Information Act of 2002 requires Federal agencies to annually report error rate measures. Section 2 of the Improper Payments Information Act provides for estimates and reports of improper payments by Federal agencies. Subpart K of 45 CFR, Part 98 requires preparation and submission of a report of errors occurring in the administration of CCDF grant funds once every three years. The information collected will be used to prepare the annual Agency Financial Report (AFR) and will provide information necessary to offer technical assistance to grantees. The current collection expires in August 2010. This renewal is to be in place for the continuation of the required review process.

Short Statement:
The burden estimate has been greatly reduced as the process has continually been streamlined and the completion of the Data Entry Form has been eliminated altogether, as it provided little information for the data collection. Many States have refined automation processes during the completion of the first 2 cycles of reviews which has provided for additional burden reduction.
