abstract: Primary: Individuals or 

households. Other: None. The 

application form is submitted 

voluntarily, once a year by law students 

and judicial law clerks who will be in 

this applicant pool only once; the 

revision to this collection concerns two 

additional forms required to be 

submitted only by those applicants who 

were selected to be interviewed by DOJ 

components. Both of these forms seek 

information in order to prepare both the 

official Travel Authorizations prior to 

the interviewees’ performing preemployment interview travel (as defined 

by 41 CFR 301–1.3), and the official 

Travel Vouchers after the travel is 

completed. The first new form is the 

Travel Survey—used by the Department 

in scheduling travel and/or hotel 

accommodations, which in turn 

provides the estimated travel costs 

required by the Travel Authorization 

form. The second new form is a simple 

Reimbursement Form—the interviewees 

are asked to provide their travel costs 

and/or hotel accommodations (if 

applicable) in order for the Department 

to prepare the Travel Vouchers required 

before these interviewees can be 

reimbursed by the Department for the 

authorized costs they incurred during 

this pre-employment interview travel. 

(5) An estimate of the total number of 

respondents and the amount of time 

estimated for an average respondent to 

respond/reply: It is estimated that 5000 

respondents will complete the 

application in approximately 1 hour per 

application. The revised burden would 

include 600 respondents who will 

complete the travel survey in 

approximately 10 minutes per form, and 

600 respondents who will complete the 

reimbursement form in approximately 

10 minutes per form. 

(6) An estimate of the total public 

burden (in hours) associated with the 

collection: The estimated revised total 

annual public burden associated with 

this application is 5200 hours.
