Needs and Uses: The primary 

objective of the set of information 

collections referred to as the 2013 FVAP 

Ethnographies, Focus Groups, and 

Surveys, conducted on behalf of the 

Federal Voting Assistance Program 

(FVAP), an agency of the Department of 

Defense, is to examine the attitudes, 

experiences, and behaviors of a number 

of actors involved in the absentee voting 

process as it pertains to CONUS and 

OCONUS military voters and overseas 

voters covered under the Uniformed and 

Overseas Civilian Absentee Voting Act 

(UOCAVA). This research will explore 

potential deficiencies, risks, and pitfalls 

which serve as barriers to voting success 

among these UOCAVA voters. The data 

obtained through this study will provide 

an assessment of potential changes to 

address current barriers to UOCAVA 

voting. 

Specifically, this effort will be 

comprised of the following research 

components: 

• 39 ethnographies among nonmilitary and non-U.S. government 

individuals; 

• 48 ethnographies with Local 

Election Officials; 

• 28 ethnographies among spouses/ 

adult children of active duty U.S. 

military service members; 

• 24 focus groups among non military 

UOCAVA voters; 

• 8 focus groups among military 

spouses/adult children; 

• 4 focus groups among non military 

non voters; 

• Survey of 4,000 non military 

UOCAVA voters; 

• 2 final focus groups among military 

spouses/adult children. 

Affected Public: Non-military 

UOCAVA voters including military 

spouses and adult children, nonmilitary and non-U.S. government 

individuals, and Local Election 

Officials. 

Annual Burden Hours: 2,323 hours 

total. Time estimates by research 

methodology as follows: 

• 39 ethnographies among non-military 

and non-U.S. government individuals:

respondent)

UOCAVA voters: 480 hours (2 hours 

per respondent; 10 respondents per 

group; 240 respondents) 

• 8 focus groups among military 

spouses/adult children: 160 hours (2 

hours per respondent; 10 respondents 

per group; 80 respondents) 

• 4 focus groups among non military 

non voters: 80 hours (2 hours per 

respondent; 10 respondents per 

group; 40 respondents) 

• Survey of 4,000 non military 

UOCAVA voters: 1,333 hours (20 

minutes per respondent)

spouses/adult children: 40 hours (2 

hours per respondent; 10 respondents 

per group; 20 respondents) 

Number of Respondents: 4,495. 

Responses per Respondent: 1. 

Average Burden per Response: 

Ethnographies and Focus Groups: 2

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Summary of Information Collection 

The Uniformed and Overseas Citizens 

Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA) 

requires the States to allow Uniformed 

Services personnel, their family 

members, and overseas citizens to use 

absentee registration procedures and to 

vote by absentee ballot in general, 

special, primary, and runoff elections 

for Federal offices. The Act covers 

members of the Uniformed Services and 

the merchant marine to include the 

commissioned corps of the National 

Oceanic and Atmospheric 

Administration and Public Health 

Service and their eligible dependents, 

Federal civilian employees overseas, 

and overseas U.S. citizens not affiliated 

with the Federal Government. Local 

Election Officials (LEO) process voter 

registration and absentee ballot 

applications, send absentee ballots to 

voters, and receive and process the 

voted ballots in counties, cities, 

parishes, townships and other 

jurisdictions within the U.S. LEOs, 

independently and in relation to their 

respective State election officials, are 

often one of the most important pieces 

in the absentee voting process for 

UOCAVA citizens. The 2013 FVAP 

Ethnographies, Focus Groups, and 

Surveys research project will examine 

attitudes, experiences, and behaviors of 

LEOs and UOCAVA voters around the 

UOCAVA voting process. The research 

will explore the deficiencies, risks, and 

pifalls that serve as key barriers to 

UOCAVA voting success and will 

provide insights and recommendations 

for potential changes to address 

obstacles in the UOCAVA voting 

process. The study involves both 

qualitative and quantitative data 

collection methods. The research 

findings will be used for overall rogram 

evaluation, management and 

improvement.
