OMB Nonsubstantive Change Request

Department: Commerce

Agency: U.S. Census Bureau

Title: 2020 Census Post-Enumeration Survey Initial and Final Housing Unit Follow-up Operations

OMB Control Number: 0607-1010

Expiration Date: 11/30/2022

Request: The Census Bureau is responding to the Notice of Office of Management and Budget Action dated 11/27/2019 for the Census Bureau to provide, through a non-substantive change request, the final forms for initial collection ahead of use of the forms.

Attached are the final Initial Housing Unit Follow-up forms. The Census Bureau will provide the final Final Housing Unit Follow-up forms ahead of use of the forms.

In addition, on March 18, 2020, the U.S. Census Bureau announced a two-week suspension of 2020 Census field operations to help protect the American public and our employees from the coronavirus outbreak. (Press release is available here: https://2020census.gov/en/news-events/press-releases/jeffersonville-statement.html.) On the same day, the Census Bureau also made temporary adjustments to operations at two Census Bureau facilities in Jeffersonville, Indiana: the National Processing Center (NPC) and Paper Data Capture Center East. Until April 1, 2020, these two facilities will transition to the minimum number of on-site staff necessary to continue operations.

After April 1, 2020, it is likely that NPC will continue with minimal operations due to staff absences because of the COVID-19 guidance for federal employees. Therefore, it is likely that changes to the 2020 Census Post-Enumeration Survey Initial and Final Housing Unit Follow-up operations will occur. The Census Bureau plans to engage regularly with OMB on any implementation changes to the Initial and Final Housing Unit Follow-up operations and will document changes implemented through a nonsubstantive change request for the effected time period.
