This information collection
requirement is necessary to screen members of military families to
determine if they have special medical (DD Form 2792) and/or
educational (DD Form 2792-1) conditions so that these conditions
can be taken into consideration when the Service member is being
assigned to a new location with his/her family. The information is
used by the personnel system to identify special considerations for
future assignments.
Burden increased due to a
general increase in the number of family members filling out both
forms. Also, in the previously approved collection the burden for
each respondent was consolidated and this time we broke it out to
accurately account for the burden on each respondent.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
