SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Description: The FCR is a national database of information pertaining to child support cases processed by state child support agencies, referred to as "IV-D" cases, and non-IV-D support orders privately established or modified by courts or tribunals on or after October 1, 1998. FCR information is comprised of child support orders and case information from each State Case Registry (SCR). The FCR automatically compares new SCR submissions to existing FCR information and to wage and employment information in the National Directory of New Hires. The Federal Parent Locator Service notifies state agencies if a IV-D case participant in the state matches a participant in a IV-D or non-IV-D case in another state and supplies any matched wage and employment information. Matches enable state agencies to locate parties that live in different states to establish, modify, or enforce child support obligations; to establish paternity; to enforce state law regarding parental kidnapping; and to establish or enforce child custody or visitation determinations.

The FCR instrument, Appendix G: Input Record Layout, contains minor changes in punctuation, formatting, grammar, clarity, and spacing to enable easier completion of the form.

Respondents: State child support enforcement agencies.
