Short Statement:
The estimated total annual hours for 2025 (156,246) is slightly higher than the 124,888 requested in the prior OMB package. This change in estimated burden is due to the implementation of the new instrument. The new instrument is estimated to take 36 minutes compared to the estimated 32 minutes based on the large-scale national field test. The estimated burden is now based on five months (February–June 2024) of split sample data collection with the Census Bureau for the new instrument. The increased administration time of the new instrument is also due to the addition of the two new modules on police performance and community safety and updates to the crime screener but is balanced against the significant reduction in administration time for crime incident reports compared to the current instrument.
