The approved collection from 2016, reported an annual number of respondents for the NAVCRUIT 1131/238, Application Processing and Summary Record (APSR), as 14,000. Over the course of three years, the response time is the same at an hour for the NAVCRUIT 1131/238, but the number of respondents is now approximately 24,000 annually. The change is a result of the Navyâs increased requirement of meeting its recruiting goal. From the 24,000 respondents filling out the APSR, 12,000 respondents fill out an additional form, NAVCRUIT 1130/104, U.S. Navy Tattoo Screening Certificate. The response time for it the NAVCRUIT 1130/104 is 30 minutes.
The difference is an adjustment increase of 16,000 because of both the increased requirement of meeting goal and because of the increase of responses with adding the NAVCRUIT 1130/104, which added 12,000 responses at 30 minutes a response making the total increase of 16,000. .
