The National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1979 (NLSY79) is a representative national sample of persons who were born in the years 1957 to 1964 and lived in the U.S. in 1979. These respondents were ages 14 to 22 when the first round of interviews began in 1979; they will be ages 57 to 64 when the planned round thirty of interviews is conducted in 2022. In the past, the biological children of female NLSY79 respondents also have been surveyed. The Child and Young Adult information collection will not be performed in conjunction with the main NLSY79 Round 30 fielding. One of the goals of the Department of Labor (DOL) is to produce and disseminate timely, accurate, and relevant information about the U.S. labor force. The BLS contributes to this goal by gathering information about the labor force and labor market and disseminating it to policymakers and the public so that participants in those markets can make more informed, and thus more efficient, choices. Research based on the NLSY79 contributes to the formation of national policy in the areas of education, training, employment programs, and school-to-work transitions.

The estimated total respondent burden for Round 30 is lower than the estimated burden for Round 29. This change reflects, in large part, the discontinuation of the NLSY79 Young Adult Survey. In addition, the NLS made several changes to the questionnaire that will decrease the interview length and estimates the time for the main questionnaire to take 69 minutes this round rather than the 74 minutes of Round 29. Finally, NLS expects a smaller number of interviews for Round 30 compared to those projected for Round 29.
