Abstract:
The federally approved intergovernmental forms are used to facilitate interstate child support case processing when more than one state child support agency is involved. The forms are readily recognizable and provide the information states agree is needed to process a case. More than one state may become involved in a child support case when the parents live in different states, where the parties no longer reside in the state that issued the support order, or when assets are sought in states other than the state enforcing the support order. Intergovernmental cases are the most complex and difficult cases. About 15-25 percent of child support cases are believed to involve more than one state.

Short Statement:
The estimate of annual burden hours has declined from 722,663 hours in the last approval to 515,860 hours in this request. Changes in burden are due to the decline in the overall child support caseload over the last several years and also changes in estimate in response times based on reading time estimates per HHS guidance. States use these forms to process cases between jurisdictions; these intergovernmental cases are a percentage of each state’s overall caseload. Therefore, as the total number of cases declines, so does the number of intergovernmental cases. For information on the child support caseload, see OCSE Preliminary Annual Report FY 2020, Table 34.
