Short Statement:
This is a revision of a previously approved information collection. This revision reflects a higher burden as a result of increases in the number of State agencies opting to create a methodology for offsetting the costs of producing self-employment income and increases in the hourly burdens for some information collection activities based on consultations with State agencies. The current burden inventory is 746.20 total annual burden hours and 127 total annual responses. In this revision, FNS is requesting 1,568.25 total annual burden hours and 129 total annual responses. This revision reflects an increase of 822.05 total annual burden hours and 2 total annual responses. The increase in burden is the result of two program changes and one adjustment. The first program change is the estimated hourly burden per response for developing and reviewing SUAs has increased from 10 hours to 25 hours, based on consultations with State agencies. The second program change is the estimated hourly burden for SUA and self-employment methodology option recordkeeping requirements has increased from 0.1169 hours to 0.25 hours, based on consultations with State agencies. The adjustment for this collection request is the number of State agencies opting to develop a methodology for offsetting the costs of producing self-employment income has increased from 21 States to 23 States.
