Short Statement:
This is a revision of a currently approved information collection. The current reporting burden inventory for this data collection is an overall 56,653 reporting and recordkeeping burden hours and 666,864 total annual responses for reporting and recordkeeping. We are requesting 48,789 reporting and recordkeeping burden hours (48,099.64 reporting + 689 recordkeeping hours), a decrease of -7,864 reporting hours, the recordkeeping hours remains unchanged from the currently approved request. The current overall total annual response is 666,864, we are requesting 550,406 a decrease of -116,458, this too is reflective of solely the reporting burden estimates. The currently approved respondents for individuals/households is 305,020 which has been decreased to 272,161, and 53 State agencies, which remains the same. These adjustments are due to a decrease in the average number of 60-day notices sent to debtors by State agencies between 2018 and 2020. FNS is also reporting 12,374.82 burden hours for third party reporting associated with sending data to TOP for only the State agencies (this burden is included above in the overall 48,099.64 reporting burden hours above for Individuals/Households and State agencies). This was an erroneous oversight not included in the 60-day notice which we are correcting here.
