Agency Form Under Review by the Office of Management and Budget

    DOC has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for 
clearance the following proposal for collection of information under 
the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35).
    Agency: Bureau of the Census.
    Title: Survey of Income and Program Participation - 1992 Panel 
Waves 9 and 10.
    Form Number(s): SIPP-12900.
    Agency Approval Number: 0607-0723.
    Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Burden: 42,000 hours.
    Number of Respondents: 42,000.
    Avg Hours Per Response: 30 minutes.
    Needs and Uses: The Survey of Income and Program Participation 
(SIPP) is a longitudinal, demographic, household survey in which the 
Census Bureau interviews sample households in waves occurring every 4 
months over a 2\1/2\ year period. The survey is molded around a central 
``core'' of labor force and income questions that remain fixed during 
each wave of a panel. The core is periodically supplemented with 
questions designed to answer specific needs. These supplemental 
questions are referred to as ``topical modules.'' As part of our 
transition plans for SIPP from paper to an automated questionnaire, the 
Census Bureau is requesting an extension of the 1992 Panel in order to 
conduct 2 additional waves of interviews. The topical modules for Wave 
9 include the following: 1) Work Schedule, 2) Child Care, 3) Child 
Support Agreements, 4) Support for Nonhousehold Members, 5) Functional 
Limitations and Disabilities-Adults, 6) Utilization of Health Care 
Services-Adults, 7) Functional Limitations and Disabilities-Children, 
8) Utilization of Health Care Services-Children, and 9) Children's 
Well-Being. Wave 9 interviews will be conducted from October 1994 
through January 1995. Wave 10 interviews will have no topical modules 
and will be conducted from February 1995 through May 1995.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: Waves 9 and 10 will be conducted once during the panel.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: Maria Gonzalez, [phone].
    Copies of the above information collection proposal can be obtained 
by calling or writing Edward Michals, DOC Forms Clearance Officer, 
[phone], Department of Commerce, room 5312, 14th and 
Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230.
    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be sent to Maria Gonzalez, OMB Desk Officer, room 
3208, New Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503.

    Dated: April 7, 1994.
Edward Michals,
Departmental Forms Clearance Officer, Office of Management and 
Organization.
