SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Worksheet for the Supplemental 

Nutrition Assistance Program’s (SNAP) 

Quality Control Reviews. 

OMB Number: 0584–0074. 

Form Number: FNS–380. 

Expiration Date: February 28, 2010. 

Type of Request: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Abstract: Form FNS–380 is a SNAP 

worksheet used to determine eligibility 

and benefits for households selected for 

review in the quality control sample of 

active cases. We estimate the total 

reporting burden for this collection of 

information as 8.9 hours, equating to a 

total of 498,978 hours collectively. This 

includes the time for State agencies 

analyzing the household case record; 

planning and carrying out the field 

investigation; gathering, comparing, 

analyzing and evaluating the review 

data and forwarding selected cases to 

the Food and Nutrition Service for 

Federal validation. It also includes an 

average interview burden of 30 minutes 

(0.5 hours) for each household. 

Additionally, we estimate the 

recordkeeping burden per record for the 

state agency to be 0.0236 hours, thereby 

making the recordkeeping burden 

associated with this information 

collection for the state agency to be 

1,323 hours. The total estimated 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection is 500,301 hours. 

The reporting and recordkeeping 

burden for this form was previously 

approved under Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) clearance number 

0584–0074. OMB approved the burden 

through November 30, 2009. Based on 

the most recent table of active case 

sample sizes and completion rates (FY 

2007), we estimate 56,065 FNS–380 

worksheets and interviews will now be 

completed annually. This is a decrease 

of 1,134 responses from the estimate 

made to substantiate the current 

collection. This estimate will also cause 

a corresponding decrease in the 

reporting and recordkeeping burden. 

The decrease in response is a result of 

a reduction in the number of cases being 

pulled for review over the minimum 

required review amount. We are 

requesting a three-year approval from 

OMB for this information collection.
