Burden Increase Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The estimate of burden for DOL recipients is slightly lower than estimated prior to the 2005 survey; because the actual response time was lower than initially estimated. Previously, DOL estimated that each survey would take 20 minutes, resulting in a total annual burden of 180 hours. Based on experience with the survey, DOL now estimates that each survey will take approximately 10 minutes resulting in a total annual burden of 77 hours. Since this is a new survey for DOJ, their estimates of 78 annual burden hours have been added to the DOL estimates. Since this survey was originally planned as a one-time survey, it was discontinued in April 2006. The reinstatement of this survey results in a program change of 155 annual burden hours.
