OMB Non-Substantive Change Request
Department: Commerce
Agency: U.S. Census Bureau
Title: Household Pulse Survey (HPS)
OMB Control Number: 0607-1013
The U.S. Census Bureau requests a non-substantive change to the currently approved HPS Information Collection Request. The Census Bureau last received a clearance for Phase 3.6, on September 12, 2022. We request approval for this change in time for the final data collection period for Phase 3.6, which begins November 2 and ends on November 14, 2022.
Background and Justification
The Household Pulse Survey was developed to address the need for timely insight into the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on American Households. However, one of the features of the HPS is its ability to rapidly respond to evolving information needs. As attention to the COVID-19 pandemic has shifted, we will be shifting the content focus to other emergent issues. The Household Pulse Survey is seeking to update the language in the survey instrument and survey websites to broaden the purpose of the data collection beyond the COVID-19 pandemic to include other important social and economic factors.
Data Collection
The current introductory language in the HPS instrument solely emphasizes the COVID-19 pandemic.
