Abstract: The Board uses this voluntary survey to obtain household-based information specifically tailored to the Board’s policy, regulatory, and operational responsibilities. The Board primarily uses the survey to study consumer financial decisions, attitudes, and payment behavior. Currently, the University of Michigan’s Survey Research Center (SRC) includes survey questions on behalf of the Board in an addendum to their regular monthly Survey of Consumer Attitudes and Expectations. The SRC conducts the survey by telephone with a sample of 500 households and asks questions of special interest to the Board.

Short Statement: The current annual respondent burden for the Board’s SRC and Non-SRC surveys is estimated to be 633 hours, and would decrease by 475 hours to 158 hours with the proposed revisions. The Board proposes to eliminate the Division of Consumer and Community Affairs (DCCA) and other divisions’ SRC surveys, as well as the non-SRC surveys in this information collection, as these surveys have not been conducted since 2010 and are not expected to be utilized in the next several years.
