SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title; Associated Form; and OMB

Needs and Uses: The information 

collection requirement is necessary for 

Federal Voting Assistance Program 

(FVAP), an agency of the Department of 

Defense, to fulfill the mandate of the 

Uniformed and Overseas Citizens 

Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA of 1986 

[42 U.S.C. 1973ff]). 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 

populations. 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. 

Annual Burden Hours: 3,000. 

Number of Respondents: 18,000. 

Responses per Respondent: 1. 

Annual Responses: 18,000. 

Average Burden per Response: 10 

Minutes. 

Frequency: On Occasion. 

The Uniformed and Overseas Citizens 

Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA) 

requires the States to allow Uniformed 

Services personnel, their family 

members, and overseas citizens to use 

absentee registration procedures and to 

vote by absentee ballot in general, 

special, primary, and runoff elections 

for Federal offices. The Act covers 

members of the Uniformed Services and 

the merchant marine to include the 

commissioned corps of the National 

Oceanic and Atmospheric 

Administration and Public Health 

Service and their eligible dependents, 

Federal civilian employees overseas, 

and overseas U.S. citizens not affiliated 

with the Federal Government. 

Subsequent to each Presidential election 

year, FVAP must report voter 

registration and participation rates for 

uniformed service voters and overseas 

citizens to Congress; while FVAP 

collects data for this report through 

regular surveys of uniformed service 

voters and other relevant UOCAVA 

populations, it does not currently 

collect data from non-military, nonVerDate Sep<11>2014 17:14 Mar 27, 2017 Jkt 241001 PO 00000 Frm 00020 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\28MRN1.SGM 28MRN1
