of New Hires Match Results Report.
OMB No.: 0970-0311.
Description: Section 453(j)(3) of the Social Security Act (the Act)
allows for matching between the National Directory of New Hires

under programs funded under part A of Title IV of the Act. To assist

State TANF Agencies have agreed to provide OCSE with a written
description of the performance outputs and outcomes attributable to the

strategic goals.
Respondents: State TANF Agencies.
