(a) The Child Support Performance and Incentive Act of 1998 (P.L.105-200) modified the federal Social Security Act to better facilitate the data match for multi-state financial institutions. 42 U.S.C. 652(l), as amended, authorizes OCSE to act as the conduit between the States and territories and the multi-state financial institutions in the development and implementation of a centralized, quarterly data match program for the collection of delinquent child support. Multi-state financial institutions may choose to match through OCSE or with the individual states in which they do business. Financial institutions choosing to participate as a multi-state financial institution must use Match Method 2.     
      (b) A multi-state financial institution choosing to match through OCSE may contact OCSE at: Office of Child Support Enforcement, Multi-state Financial Institution Data Match, Post Office Box 509, Randallstown, Maryland 21133. Assistance may be found via e-mail at: fidm@ssa.gov, or Web site: http://www.acf.hhs.gov/programs/cse/.     
      (c) If a multi-state financial institution discontinues its reporting through OCSE, it shall promptly submit a memorandum of agreement to enter the match process with the Title IV-D agency its agent.
