Commerce for public inspection and

copying. Anyone submitting business

confidential information should clearly

identify the business confidential

portion of the submission and also

provide a non-confidential submission

that can be placed in the public file. The

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Office of the Secretary

Submission for OMB Review;

Comment Request

ACTION: Notice.

The Department of Defense has

submitted to OMB for clearance, the

following proposal for collection of

information under the provisions of the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

Chapter 35).

Title, Forms, and OMB Number:

Dependency Statements—Parent, Child

Born Out of Wedlock, Incapacitated

Child Over Age 21, Full Time Student

21–22 Years of Age, and Ward of a

Court; DD Forms 137–3, 137–4, 137–5,

137–6, 137–7; OMB Number 0730–[To

Be Determined].

Type of Request: New Collection.

Number of Respondents: 19,440.

Responses per Respondent: 1.

Annual Responses: 19,440.

Average Burden per Response: 1.25

hours.

Annual Burden Hours: 24,300.

Needs and Uses: The information

collection requirement is necessary to

certify dependency or obtain

information to determine entitlement to

basic allowance for housing (BAH) with

dependent rate, travel allowance, or

Uniformed Services Identification and

Privilege Card. Information regarding a

parent, a child born out-of-wedlock, an

incapacitated child over age 21, a

student 21–22, or a ward of a court is

provided by the military member or by

another individual who may be a

member of the public. Pursuant to 37

U.S.C. 401, 403, 406, and 10 U.S.C. 1072

and 1076, the member must provide at

least one-half of the claimed child’s

monthly expenses. DoDFMR 7000.14,

Vol. 7A, defines dependency and directs

that dependency be proven.

Dependency claim examiners use the

information from these forms to

determine the degree of benefits. The

requirement to provide the information

decreases the possibility of monetary

allowances being approved on behalf of

ineligible dependents.

Affected Public: Individuals or

Households.

Frequency: On Occasion.
