SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and Omb Number: Overseas Citizen Population 
Survey; OMB Control Number 0704-0539.
    Type of Request: Revision.
    Number of Respondents: 18,000.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 18,000.
    Average Burden per Response: 15 minutes.
    Annual Burden Hours: 4,500.
    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary 
for the Federal Voting Assistance Program (FVAP), an agency of the DoD, 
to fulfill the mandate of the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee 
Voting Act (UOCAVA of 1986 [52 U.S.C. 10301]). UOCAVA requires a 
statistical analysis report to the President and Congress on the 
effectiveness of assistance under the Act, a statistical analysis of 
voter participation, and a description of State/Federal cooperation. 
The data obtained through this study will allow FVAP to refine its 
methodology for estimating the number of overseas U.S. civilians who 
are eligible to vote and who have registered and participated in the 
past, and using these estimates to address the question of whether the 
registration and voting propensity of the overseas civilian population 
differs from that of a comparable domestic or military population. 
Conducting this research will help FVAP meet its Federal and 
congressional mandates in terms of reporting annually on its activities 
and on overall voter registration and participation rates after each 
Presidential election. The data obtained through this study is also 
intended to provide insights into existing barriers to UOCAVA voting 
and recommendations for addressing these challenges.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    DOD Clearance Officer: Mr. Reginald Lucas.

    Dated: December 11, 2024.
Aaron T. Siegel,
Alternate OSD Federal Register Liaison Officer, Department of Defense.
