SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

The Business and Professional 

Classification Report survey, (Form SQ–

CLASS) collects information about new 

businesses to properly classify them for 

Census Bureau economic surveys. The 

survey samples businesses with newly 

assigned Employer Identification 

Numbers (EINs) from the Internal 

Revenue Service (IRS) quarterly, on the 

SQ–CLASS form. This survey is 

conducted only once for each new 

business that is sampled. The SQ–

CLASS form collects minimum data 

about a business on such areas as: 

primary business activity, EIN 

verification, company structure, size, 

and business operations. This 

information is used to replenish the 

Census Bureau survey universe with 

properly classified new businesses, 

updated administrative information, 

and current business data, which reduce 

respondent burdens to Census surveys 

and assure high quality economic 

estimates. 

The Census Bureau plans only 

minimal changes to the form and 

instruction sheet. The wording of the 

questions and instructions for both sales 

and inventory will be reworded to be in 

line with the Census Bureau’s monthly 

and annual surveys. 

II. Method of Collection 

The information will be collected by 

mail, fax, and telephone follow-up.

the proposed collection of information 

is necessary for the proper performance
