This appendix provides the specifications for each data element in the Child File. The State submits the Child File and the Agency File to NCANDS. The NCANDS Glossary, Appendix A, provides definitions for the terms used.
According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Public Law 104-13), the public reporting burden for information collection must be estimated. The combined collection of Child File and Agency File information is estimated to average 82 hours per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and reviewing the collection of information. Respondents may direct comments concerning this estimate to: Dori Sneddon, NCANDS Federal Project Officer, Children's Bureau, 330 C Street SW, Mary E. Switzer Room, Washington, DC 20024 (dori.sneddon@acf.hhs.gov)
