This form is used by States to
facilitate the reporting of expenditures for the Temporary
Assistance for Needy Families. State agencies will use this form to
report data on a quarterly basis. The form provides specific data
regarding financial disbursements, obligations, and estimates. It
provides States with a mechanism to request grant awards and
certify the availability of State matching funds. Failure to
collect this data would seriously compromise the Administration for
Children and Families ability to monitor expenditures. This form
may also be used to prepare ACF budget submissions to
Congress.
