Description: Public Law 104-193, the ``Personal Responsibility and
Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996,'' requires the Office of
Child Support Enforcement (OCSE) to operate a National Directory of New
Hires (NDNH) to improve the ability of State child support enforcement
agencies to locate noncustodial parents and collect child support
across State lines. The law requires employers to report newly hired
employees to States. States are then required to periodically transmit
new hire data received from employers to the NDNH, and to transmit wage
and unemployment compensation claims data to the NDNH on a quarterly
basis. Federal agencies are required to report new hires and quarterly
wage data directly to the NDNH. All data is transmitted to the NDNH
electronically.
Respondents: Employers, State Child Support Enforcement Agencies,
State Workforce Agencies, Federal Agencies.
