Abstract:
This information collection provides disaster survivors the opportunity to request approval of late applications, continued temporary housing assistance, request advance disaster assistance, stop payments not received in order to be reissued funds, and to appeal program decisions. This collection also allows for the establishment of an annual agreement between FEMA and states, territories, and tribal governments regarding how the Other Needs Assistance provision of IHP will be administered: by FEMA, by the state, territory, or tribal government, or jointly. This collection allows survivors to provide additional information after the initial disaster assistance registration period in support of their applications for assistance from FEMA’s IHP. If the information in this collection is not collected, a delay in assistance provided to disaster survivors would occur.

Short Statement:
On March 22, 2022, the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS’s) Chief Information Officer (CIO), Eric Hysen announced the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) Burden Reduction Initiative through a memorandum (attached) to DHS Component and Office Heads. CIO Hysen announced this Initiative in response to Executive Order (EO) 14058, Transforming Federal Customer Experience and Service Delivery to Rebuild Trust in Government, issued by the President on December 13, 2021. CIO Hysen announced that the Department’s overall goal is to reduce the burden hours placed on the public in response to our requests to collect information by 10% in the next year, which is 20-million hours for DHS as a whole and 2,682,279 hours for FEMA in particular. This was a review of the instruments that are part of the collection to assess if the collection is still necessary to fulfill one of FEMA’s missions, that each instrument is required for the performance of duties related to those missions, and if there are any opportunities for consolidation, improvement, or other methods of burden reduction. To ensure compliance with the goal of reducing burden hours, FEMA reviewed the Federal Assistance to Individuals and Households Program Forms specifically, FF-104-FY-21-115, FF-104-FY-21-116, and FF-104-FY-21-118 to show burden reductions through sample testing based on an average time to complete each form. Annual burden hours decreased by 34,281 hours due to change in the average burden per response for forms FF-104-FY-21-114, FF-104-FY-21-115, FF-104-FY-21-115-A, Request for Approval of Late Registration, Appeal of Program Decision, FF-104-FY-21-116, FF-104-FY-21-116-A, FF-104-FY-21-117, FF-104-FY-21-117-A, FF-104-FY-21-118, and FF-104-FY-21-118-A. There was no change in burden hours for the Development of State/Tribal Administrative Plan for Other Needs Provision of IHP / No Form. Annual burden costs decreased by $1,340,780 due to change in the average burden per response for forms FF-104-FY-21-114, Development of State/Tribal Administrative Plan for Other Needs Provision of IHP, FF-104-FY-21-115, FF-104-FY-21-115-A, Request for Approval of Late Registration, Appeal of Program Decision, FF-104-FY-21-116, FF-104-FY-21-116-A, FF-104-FY-21-117, FF-104-FY-21-117-A, FF-104-FY-21-118, and FF-104-FY-21-118-A. Additionally, the average hourly wage rate for Management Occupations associated with form FF-104-FY-21-114 and Development of State/Tribal Administrative Plan for Other Needs Provision of IHP increased from $85.96 to $97.90 due to updated data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics for Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates and the Employer Costs for Employee Compensation. The hourly wage rate for All Occupations associated with forms FF-104-FY-21-115, FF-104-FY-21-115-A, Request for Approval of Late Registration, Appeal of Program Decision, FF-104-FY-21-116, FF-104-FY-21-116-A , FF-104-FY-21-117, FF-104-FY-21-117-A, FF-104-FY-21-118, and FF-104-FY-21-118-A increased from $37.55 to $39.25 due to updated data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics for Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates and the Employer Costs for Employee Compensation
