Food Security Supplement to the Current Population Survey

OMB 0536-0043

ERS is requesting to make a substantive revision to the currently approved collection by adding a one-time split panel test to assess the functioning of a redesigned survey instrument and the effect of revising some survey items on key outcomes of interest. This split panel test will be a separate data collection from the regular annual FSS data collection used to monitor the Nation’s food security.

The latest form for Food Security Supplement to the Current Population Survey expires 2022-02-28 and can be found here.
