Changing Forms
The overall burden changed for the IA surveys. This revised collection is based on historical methods used by the agency and future usage of new methods, new response rates obtained from the previous new collection, and changes to sampling methodology to accommodate managements use of data to make decisions. The previous collection was composed of 3 types of qualitative designs: online interviews, focus groups, and one-on-one interviews. The revised collection will eliminate online interviews and increase one-on-one interviews, and reduce focus groups based on estimated/proposed funding for incentives. The target of annual respondents was 24,096 in the previous collection. The current collection has an annual target of 38,864 respondents. Total Program Increase to Burden Hours = 8,982 (current) – 8,095 (previous) = 887 Total Program Increase to Cost = $337,274 (current) – $274,585 (previous) = $62,689
