Child Support Enforcement Transmittal #3 226 Request for Assistance/Discovery OMB 0970 226 0085 Expiration Date: 12/31/2019 Page 1 of 1 Acknowledgment -Return This Page to the Requesting Agency American LegalNet, Inc. www.FormsWorkFlow.com If this is a tribal IV-D case, note that tribal locator codes uniquely identify tribal cases with 2239224 in the first position, 0 (zero) in the second position, and then a 3-character tribal code defined by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CHILD SUPPORT ENFORCEMENT TRANSMITTAL #3 REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE/DISCOVERY AND ACKNOWLEDGMENT PURPOSE OF THE FORM: The CSE Transmittal #3 - Request for Assistance/Discovery is designed for use when a IV-D agency needs limited assistance from another IV-D agency, but does not want the other agency to open a IV-D case. Federal law and regulations require all IV-D agencies to cooperate with requests from another state agency for limited services and payment forwarding. Sections 316 and 318 of UIFSA contain specific provisions that allow a tribunal to receive evidence from another state and to obtain discovery through a tribunal of another state. Whenever possible, a CSE Transmittal #3 request should be s ent electronically using the appropriate CSENet transaction. When a IV-D agency receives a CSE Transmittal #3 - Request for Assistance/Discovery from another IV-D agency, it should not open an intergovernmental IV-D case. It should only provide the limited assistance requested. By contrast, an initiating jurisdiction should use CSE Transmittal #1 - Initial Request when asking t he responding jurisdiction to open an interstate IV-D case. HEADING/CAPTION: The agency requesting assistance/discovery determines the heading. Note that the heading appears on both the Child Support Enforcement Transmittal #3 and on the Acknowledgment page. 225 Check if a Child Support Agency Confidential Information Form is attached. The Child Support Agency Confidential Information Form will be needed for most actions being requested since most of the identifying information has been removed from the CSE Transmittal #3. 225 Identify the petitioner and respondent by full legal name (first, middle, last, suffix) and, if applicable, include the name of the tribe with which the petitioner or respondent is affiliated. 225 Check the appropriate box to identify the type of IV-D case: TANF, IV-E foster care, Medicaid only, former assistance, or never assistance. 225 In the space marked 223To:224, list the name and address (street, PO Box, city, state, and zip code) of the agency to which you are sending the CSE Transmittal #3. 225 In the appropriate spaces, if applicable and if known, enter the assisting agency222s locator code, state, case identifier, and tribunal number. The assisting agency is the IV-D agency that is providing services at the request of the requesting agency.
