Submission For OMB Review;

Comment Request

DOC has submitted to the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB) for

clearance the following proposal for

collection of information under the

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction

Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35).

Agency: Bureau of the Census.

Title: Survey of Income and Program

Participation—1996 Panel Wave 5.

Form Number(s): SIPP 16505(L).

Agency Approval Number: 0607–

0813.

Type of Request: Revision of a

currently approved collection.

Burden: 117,800 hours.

Number of Respondents: 77,700.

Avg Hours Per Response: 30 minutes.

Needs and Uses: The Bureau of the

Census conducts the Survey of Income

and Program Participation (SIPP) to

collect information from a sample of

households concerning the distribution

of income received directly as money or

indirectly as in-kind benefits. SIPP data

are used by economic policymakers, the

Congress, state and local governments,

and Federal agencies that administer

social welfare and transfer payment

programs such as the Department of

Health and Human Services, the

Department of Housing and Urban

Development, and the Department of

Agriculture.

The SIPP is a longitudinal survey, in

that households in the panel are

interviewed 12 times at 4 month

intervals or waves over the life of the

panel, making the duration of the panel

about 4 years. The next panel of

households will be introduced in the

year 2000.

The survey is molded around a

central core of labor force and income

questions, health insurance questions,

and questions concerning government

program participation that remain fixed

throughout the life of a panel. The core

questions are asked at Wave 1 and are

updated during subsequent interviews.

The core is supplemented with

additional questions or topical modules

designed to answer specific needs.

This request is for clearance of the

topical modules to be asked during

Wave 5 of the 1996 Panel. The core

questions have already been cleared.

Topical modules for waves 6 through 12

will be cleared later. The topical

modules for Wave 5 are: (1) School

Enrollment and Financing, (2) Child

Support Agreements, (3) Support for

Non-Household Members, (4)

Functional Limitations and Disability—

Adults, (5) Functional Limitations and

Disability—Children, and (6) Employer

Provided Health Benefits. In addition, a

question on welfare reform will be

added to the instrument at OMB’s

request. Wave 5 interviews will be

conducted from August through

November 1997.

Affected Public: Individuals and

households.

Frequency: Every 4 months.

Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.

Legal Authority: Title 13, United

States Code, Section 182.
