The following options are available for making IV D requests and sending information on IV D cases:
1. CSENet transactions are the recommended method for making requests or sending information to
another state. If CSENet is not listed as an option on the form, then it cannot be used to convey a ny of
the requests for information or IV D requests provided on the form. Supporting documentation should be
sent through EDE, whenever possible. If certified copies are needed, hard copies should also be sent
by mail. Mail or fax may also be used for all documents when EDE is not available.
2. If CSENet transactions are not available in your state, EDE is the next preferred method for transmitting
your request or information. Both your state and the receiving state must be using the EDE applicati on
to use this communication method.
3. If the EDE application is not avai lable in your state or the receiving state, then mail or fax must be used
to communicate your request.
UIFSA requires that the petition or accompanying document s include certain identifying information regarding the

information. In that event, t he information must be sealed.
If a jurisdiction has reason to believe that information should not be released because of safety concerns, it should
ensure that there is a nondisclosure finding or an allegation in an affidavit or the pleading that d isclosure of
i dentifying information would result in a risk of harm, as provided under section 312 of UIFSA. In addition to
identifying information included on this form, it may be appropriate to submit certain financial information under
seal.
