Short Statement: This is request for reinstatement of an expired information collection. Due to statute, FNS is still legally required to collection this data and thereby continuing to collection in violation of the Paperwork Reduction Act. The expired burden hours in use on OMB’s inventory is 59,450 burden hours and 110,134 total annual responses. FNS is requesting a total of 49,118 annual burden hours (48,044.83 reporting and 1,073.73 recordkeeping burden hours and 90,994 total annual responses (45,497 reporting and 45,497 recordkeeping) associated with the FNS-380-1. This program adjustment reflects a decrease of -10,331 hours and a decrease of -19,140 total annual response. This difference is primarily a result of the decrease in the overall active household caseload sample reported where the number of completed reviews decreased from 55,067 to 45,497 since our last collection revision.
