TO: State and Territorial Lead Agencies administering child care programs under the Child Care and Development Block Grant Act of 1990, as amended, and other interested parties.

SUBJECT:

 Approved Form ACF-696, the Financial Reporting Form for the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF).

REFERENCES:

 The Child Care and Development Block Grant Act of 1990, as amended; section 418 of the Social Security Act; 45 CFR Parts 98 and 99.
PURPOSE:

To inform States and Territories of the renewal by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) of the CCDF ACF-696 Financial Report, approved under OMB # 0970-0163.

BACKGROUND:

States are required to use Form ACF-696 to report estimates and expenditures for the three funding streams that comprise the Child Care and Development Fund, the Mandatory Fund, the Matching Fund, and the Discretionary Fund. Territories are required to use the Form ACF-696 to report estimates and expenditures for the Discretionary Fund only.

OMB extended its approval of the Form ACF-696 information collection through June 30, 2010. The renewed form uses new terminology for lines 1(b), 1(c), 1(d), and 1(f). Specifically, funds previously referred to as “earmarks” are now referred to as “targeted funds.” In addition, the instructions for line 2(c), as well as item 13 under the instruction’s Supplemental Information, have been revised to reflect a final rule on CCDF State Match provisions that was published May 18, 2007.
SUBMISSION: Form ACF-696 must be received by the last day of the month following the end of each fiscal quarter.
