SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title; Associated Form; and OMB 

Number: Survey of Reserve Component 

Spouses; OMB Control Number 0704– 

RCSS. 

Needs and Uses: The DoD Survey of 

Reserve Component Spouses (RCSS) is 

the primary source for reliable and 

generalizable data on the effects of 

military life on military spouses and 

their families and the effectiveness of 

current programs and policies related to 

military families. The survey is 

designed to enhance understanding of 

how spouse and family resilience 

impact Reserve component force 

readiness and retention, and is also an 

indicator informing the effectiveness of 

programs and policies under the 

purview of DoD’s Military Community 

and Family Policy Department. Without 

this biennial survey, DoD would not 

have current data to guide limited 

resources to the appropriate programs, 

policies, and services related to reserve 

component spouses, their families and 

ultimately Service members. 

This survey provides an opportunity 

for military spouses to directly expand 

policy maker’s knowledge by sharing 

opinions on issues that directly affect 

them. Success of current efforts, the 

impact of activations and deployments, 

and opportunities to identify areas of 

need are captured via this biennial 

survey. These survey results ensure that 

policy-making decisions are based on 

current and statistically reliable data 

regarding the lived experiences of 

Reserve component families. 

Affected Public: Individuals or 

households. 

Annual Burden Hours: 18,175 hours. 

Number of Respondents: 72,700. 

Responses per Respondent: 1. 

Annual Responses: 72,700. 

Average Burden per Response: 15 

minutes. 

Frequency: On occasion. 

Dated: January 19, 2022.
