The SPR also collects information on the demographic and functional status of the recipients. This collection was revised in November 2004 (OMB Approval Number 0985-0008). The proposed data collection continuation format remains unchanged from the November 2004 document. It may be found at http://www.aoa.gov/​prof/​agingnet/​NAPIS/​docs/​SPR-Modified-Form-11.08.04.pdf.

AoA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: 2,600 hours.
