Proposed Projects

    Title: State Title IV-D Agency Caseworkers On-line Survey
    OMB No.: New Collection
    Description: The Office of Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) plans 
to reach out to as many State child support enforcement caseworkers as 
possible to invite them to participate in a brief on-line survey. The 
responses will be used to determine if OCSE needs to modify the content 
and the means of communicating information and training materials used 
to process child support enforcement cases. All information will be 
treated confidentially and will not be identified by State or email 
address of respondents. Depending on the overall response rate to the 
outreach efforts through the title IV-D agencies, the actual number of 
respondents could be much lower than the nationwide estimate of 60,000 
caseworkers used for the burden estimates.
    Respondents: State Title IV-D Agency Caseworkers
