Agency: U.S. Census Bureau,

Title: 2025 National Household Food 

Acquisition and Purchase Survey 

(FoodAPS) Pilot Test. 

Form Number(s): None. All 

information will be collected 

electronically. 

Type of Request: Regular submission. 

Number of Respondents: 5,000. 

Average Hours per Response: 49 

minutes. 

Burden Hours: 4,092. 

Needs and Uses: The National 

Household Food Acquisition and 

Purchase Survey (FoodAPS) fills a 

critical data gap and supports research 

that informs policymaking on key 

national priorities, including health and 

obesity, hunger, and nutrition assistance 

policy. The survey captures unique and 

comprehensive data about household 

food purchases and acquisitions, along 

with factors that influence household 

food choices. 

The Census Bureau plans to request 

Office or Management and Budget 

(OMB) approval to conduct the 2025 

FoodAPS Pilot Test is to examine and 

gain knowledge about all areas of the 

survey life cycle for this study, with the 

goal of fielding a full scale, nationally 

representative FoodAPS survey starting 

in CY2027. Additionally, the 2025 

FoodAPS Pilot Test will test the 

feasibility of using model-based 

estimates to identify populations of 

interests. Previous iterations used a 

mailing-based screener. Another 

purpose is to determine whether 

administering the 2025 FoodAPS Pilot 

Test via self-response only can achieve 

the desired response rate. Previous 

versions of the FoodAPS used field 

representatives to solicit respondent 

participation and collect data. 

The target populations for the 2025 

FoodAPS Pilot Test are Supplemental 

Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) 

participants; Women, Infants, and 

Children (WIC) recipients; and lowincome households. Respondent 

materials and survey instruments for the 

2025 FoodAPS Pilot Test will be 

available in English and Spanish. 

Affected Public: Individuals or 

households. 

Frequency: This is a pilot survey in 

preparation for a full survey in CY2027. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary. 

Legal Authority: The National 

Household Food Study is authorized 

under Title 7, Section 3171 and 2026 (a) 

(1) of the United States Code. The 

Census Bureau, conducting this study 

for the United States Department of 

Agriculture under 13 U.S.C. 8(b), is 

required by law to keep your 

information confidential and can use 

your responses for statistical purposes 

only (Title 13, U.S. Code, Section 9). 

Responding to the survey is voluntary. 

You may stop participating at any time, 

and there are no penalties for 

nonparticipation. Per the Federal
