Abstract: The State plan preprint and amendments serve as a contract with OCSE in outlining the activities the state will perform as required by law in order for states to receive federal funds to meet the costs of these activities. The affected public is comprised of states receiving funds. The information collected on the State plan pages is necessary to enable OCSE to determine whether each State and Territory has a IV-D State plan that meets the requirements in title IV-D of the Social Security Act and implementing regulations.
