Submission for Office of Management and Budget Review; ORR-6
Performance Report
AGENCY: Office of Refugee Resettlement, Administration for Children and
Families, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
ACTION: Request for public comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services seeks Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval for a 3-
year extension to the existing data collection for the ORR-6
Performance Report forms (OMB #0970-0036, expiration December 31, 2025)
with minor changes to the instructions. The minor proposed changes
removed parts of the instructions that are no longer relevant due to
expired program funding and clarify existing instructions. Revisions
also include removal of data points from the Annual Service Plan to
further reduce burden on respondents.
DATES: Comments due March 9, 2026.
ADDRESSES: The public may view and comment on this information
collection request at: https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAViewICR?ref_nbr=202602-0970-001. You can also obtain copies of the
proposed collection of information by emailing
[email protected]. Identify all emailed requests by the title
of the information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The ORR-6 is designed to satisfy the statutory
requirements of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).
Specifically, section 412(a)(7) of INA (8 U.S.C. 1522(a)(7)) requires
that the Director monitor refugee resettlement assistance, including
collecting data on the services provided and the results achieved. Data
elements include output data that measures services provided by
programs for school-aged youth, elderly populations, and for overall
health promotion. The data collected will inform evidence-based
policymaking and program design.
The ORR-6 is an OMB-approved form under the Paperwork Reduction Act
(PRA). ORR proposes to extend OMB approval for the ORR-6 with minor
changes to the instructions and reduction of reporting burden through
removal of data points from the Annual Service Plan. ORR staff and ORR
funding recipients will benefit from accurate and clear instructions
that support current reporting requirements.
Respondents: States, Replacement Designees, and the District of
Columbia.
Annual Burden Estimates: ACF estimates the proposed changes reduce
response burden from 15 to 13 hours.
