Short Statement:
The program changes include amending an existing Form 4710-24, to include foster care program, volunteer partnership program, and training programs. These changes have no impact on the estimated average response time. We are requesting an adjustment increase of 148 hours. This adjustment results from correcting a previous error in the burden calculations for the form 4710-24. Previously, the burden was calculated on an estimated average response time of 10 minutes; however, the form notes that the estimated average response time is 30 minutes.
