Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission to the

Request; Current Population Survey, Basic Demographics
The Department of Commerce will submit the following information
collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and clearance in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995, on or after the date of publication of this notice. We invite the
general public and other Federal agencies to comment on proposed, and
continuing information collections, which helps us assess the impact of
our information collection requirements and minimize the public's
reporting burden. Public comments were previously requested via the
Federal Register on March 1, 2024, during a 60-day comment period. This
notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments.
Agency: U.S. Census Bureau, Department of Commerce.
Title: Current Population Survey, Basic Demographics.
OMB Control Number: 0607-0049.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Request: Regular submission, Request for an Extension,
without Change of a Currently Approved Collection.
Number of Respondents: 708,000.
Average Hours per Response: 0.0933.
Burden Hours: 66,080.
Needs and Uses: The demographic information collected in the CPS
provides a unique set of data on selected characteristics for the
civilian noninstitutional population. We use these data in conjunction
with other data, particularly the monthly labor force data, as well as
periodic supplement data. We also use this data independently for
internal analytic research and for evaluation of other surveys. In
addition, we need these data to correctly control estimates of other
characteristics to the proper proportions of age, sex, race, and
origin.
In addition to the demographic questions are the questions needed
to make contact with the household. This includes introductions,
determining the correct respondent, and verifying the address. These
questions are referred to as the ``Front'' questions. Also involved in
maintaining contact with the household are the ``Back'' questions.
These questions collect telephone numbers, best time to contact, and
thank the respondent for their cooperation. These questions are needed
to do the interview and maintain contact with the household throughout
the survey.
Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
Frequency: Monthly.
Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
Legal Authority: Title 13 U.S.C. 8(b), 141, and 182.
