(UC) Program Budget Workbook Template (New Collection)

AGENCY: Office of Refugee Resettlement, Administration for Children and 
Families, HHS.

ACTION: Request for public comment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Administration for Children and Families' (ACF) Office of 
Refugee Resettlement (ORR) is requesting clearance for the proposed new 
collection titled ``UC Program Budget Workbook'' to streamline budget 
details and justifications of applicants to funding opportunities.

DATES: Comments due within 60 days of publication. In compliance with 
the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, ACF is 
soliciting public comment on the specific aspects of the information 
collection described above.

ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed collection of information can be 
obtained and comments may be forwarded by emailing 
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#660f08000905090a0a0305120f090826070500480e0e1548010910"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="b2dbdcd4ddd1dddeded7d1c6dbdddcf2d3d1d49cdadac19cd5ddc4">[email&#160;protected]</span></a>. Alternatively, copies can also be obtained 
by writing to the Administration for Children and Families, Office of 
Planning, Research, and Evaluation (OPRE), 330 C Street SW, Washington, 
DC 20201, Attn: ACF Reports Clearance Officer. All requests, emailed or 
written, should be identified by the title of the information 
collection.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Description: The UC Program Budget Workbook will streamline the 
budget detail and justification documentation for applicants to any 
upcoming Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). This new information 
collection will provide guidance to the applicant as well as a fillable 
form to insert calculations and budget line items. With the assistance 
of this template, the review of applications will be expedited since 
documentation will be clearer and more unified. Additionally, this will 
facilitate the completion of applications that may not otherwise be 
completed due to lack of budget documentation guidance in past NOFOs.
    Respondents: New and existing applicants to NOFOs for residential 
services for UC.
