Abstract: The (CCDF) annual financial reporting form (ACF-696T) provides a mechanism for Indian Tribes to report expenditures under the CCDF program. The CCDF program provides funds to Tribes, as well as States and Territories, to assist low-income families in obtaining child care so they can work or attend training/education and to imrpove the quality of care. Data collected via the ACF-696T allows the ACF to monitor tribal expenditures. This information collection uses the existing ACF-696T form but proposes some clarifications to the form's instructions. Respondents are CCDF tribal grantees.

Emergency Justfication: The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, establishes funds for the Child Care Development Block Grant (CCDBG) under P.L. 111-5. This legislation provides up to $2 billion to help States, Territories, and Tribes in fiscal years 2009 and 2010 for the purpose of providing child care financial assistance to low income working families. ARRA recipients are to report ARRA spending and ARRA performance data to the Federal agency. A single column (Column E) has been added on the ACF-696 (States and Territories, 0970-0163) and two columns (Columns (F) and (G)) have been added to the ACF-696T (Tribal, 0970-0195) Financial Report Forms for separate reporting of ARRA expenditures and ARRA performance data. The addition of these columns ensures that all funds provided by the Recovery Act are clearly distinguishable in all agency financial systems, business systems and reporting systems. This request is being made under 5 CFR 1320.13 based on an unanticipated event. Approval is being requested by July, 15, 2009.
