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 - 1993 Panel 
Waves 9 and 10.
    Form Number(s): SIPP-13900.
    Agency Approval Number: 0607-0759.
    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.'' The Census Bureau is 
requesting an extension of the 1993 Panel to conduct two additional 
waves of interviews extending the life of the 1993 Panel to three 
years. The topical modules for Wave 9 include the following: 1) 
Retirement Expectations and Pension Plan Coverage, 2) Work Schedule, 3) 
Child Care, 4) Children's Well-being, 5) Child Support Agreements, 6) 
Support for Nonhousehold Members, and 7) Basic Needs. Wave 9 interviews 
will be conducted from October 1995 through January 1996. Wave 10 
interviews will have no topical modules and will be conducted from 
October 1995 through January 1996.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: Each Wave is done once during the panel.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: Maria Gonzalez, (202) 395-7313.
    Copies of the above information collection proposal can be obtained 
by calling or writing Gerald Tache, DOC Forms Clearance Officer, (202)

collection should be sent to Maria Gonzalez, OMB Desk Officer, room 
10201, New Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503.

    Dated: March 14, 1995.
