Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission to the 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for Review and Approval; Comment 
Request; Current Population Survey, Basic Demographics

    The Department of Commerce will submit the following information 
collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for 
review and clearance in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995, on or after the date of publication of this notice. We invite the 
general public and other Federal agencies to comment on proposed and 
continuing information collections, which helps us assess the impact of 
our information collection requirements and minimize the public's 
reporting burden. Public comments were previously requested via the 
Federal Register on June 27, 2025, during a 60-day comment period. This 
notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments.
    Agency: U.S. Census Bureau, Commerce.
    Title: Current Population Survey, Basic Demographics.
    OMB Control Number: 0607-0049.
    Form Number(s): None.
    Type of Request: Regular submission. Extension without change of a 
currently approved collection.
    Number of Respondents: 59,000 per month.
    Average Hours per Response: 0.025.
    Burden Hours: 17,700.
    Needs and Uses: The demographic information collected in the CPS 
provides a unique set of data on selected characteristics for the 
civilian non-institutional population. We use this data in conjunction 
with other data, particularly the monthly labor force data, as well as 
periodic supplement data. We also use this data independently for 
internal analytic research and for evaluation of other surveys. In 
addition, we need these data to correctly control estimates of other 
characteristics to the proper proportions of age, sex, race, and 
ethnicity.
    In addition to the demographic questions are the questions needed 
to make contact with the household. This includes introductions, 
determining the correct respondent, and verifying the address. These 
questions are referred to as the ``Front'' questions. Also involved in 
maintaining contact with the household are the ``Back'' questions. 
These questions collect telephone numbers, best time to contact, and 
thank the respondent for their cooperation. These questions are needed 
to do the interview and maintain contact with the household throughout 
the survey.
    The CPS will continue to comply with requirements from Statistical 
Policy Directive No. 15 Federal Race and Ethnicity Data Standards (SPD 
15).
    Affected Public: Households.
    Frequency: Monthly.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    Legal Authority: Title 13 U.S.C. 8(b), 141, and 182.
    This information collection request may be viewed at 
www.reginfo.gov. Follow the instructions to view the Department of 
Commerce collections currently under review by OMB.
    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be submitted within 30 days of the publication of 
this notice on the following website www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. 
Find this particular information collection by selecting ``Currently
