Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    Title: Order to Withhold Income for Child Support and Notice of an 
Order to Withhold Income for Child Support.
    OMB No.: 0970-0154.
    Description: Public Law 104-193, the Personal Responsibility and 
Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act (PRWORA) of 1996, section 324 
requires the Federal Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) to 
develop a standardized form to collect child support payments from an 
obligor's employer.
    The form, which promotes standardization, is used for IV-D and non-
IV-D cases that require income withholding. We are revising the form to 
make it more universal for tribal governments and other uses. This two-
page form provides a detailed legal description of established child 
support orders, support amounts, and remittance information that an 
employer needs to withhold payments from an obligor who owes child 
support.
    Respondents: States and territories.
