assess the impact of our information collection requirements and minimize the publics reporting burden. Public comments were previously requested via the Federal Register on May 19, 2020 during a 60-day comment period.

Agency: U.S. Census Bureau, Department of Commerce.
Title: Survey of Income and Program Participation.
OMB Control Number: 06071000.
Form Numbers: None.
Type of Request: Regular submission, Request for a Revision of a Currently Approved Collection.
Number of Respondents: 70,560.

Needs and Uses: The SIPP collects information about a variety of topics including demographics, household composition, education, nativity and citizenship, health insurance coverage, Medicaid, Medicare, employment and earnings, unemployment insurance, assets, child support, disability, housing subsidies, migration, Old-Age Survivors and Disability Insurance OASDI, poverty, and participation in various government programs like Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program SNAP, Supplemental Security Income SSI, and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families TANF. In the spring of 2021, as part of the American Rescue Plan, the child tax credit was expanded, and the Internal Revenue Service IRS was instructed to pay out monthly benefits. The 2022 SIPP
instrument will collect receipt of the child tax credit payments.
The SIPP sample is nationally representative, with an oversample of low-income areas, in order to increase the ability to measure participation in government programs.
The SIPP program provides critical information necessary to understand patterns and relationships in income and program participation. It will fulfill its objectives to keep respondent burden and costs low, maintain high data quality and timeliness, and use a refined and vetted instrument and processing system. The SIPP data collection instrument maintains the improved data collection experience for respondents and interviewers and focuses on improvements in data quality and better topic integration.
Starting in 2019, the Census Bureau and the Social Security Administration SSA entered into a joint agreement where both agencies support the SIPP
program by contributing resources to add, process, review, and maintain

additional content on marital history, parental mortality, retirement and pension, and disability. This joint agreement started in September 2019
and goes until September 30, 2023.
The SIPP instrument is currently written in Blaise and C. It incorporates an Event History Calendar EHC design to help ensure that the SIPP will collect intra-year dynamics of income, program participation, and other activities with at least the same data quality as earlier panels. The EHC is intended to help respondents recall information in a more natural autobiographical manner by using life events as triggers to recall other economic events. For example, a residence change may often occur contemporaneously with a change in employment. The entire process of compiling the calendar focuses, by its nature, on consistency and sequential order of events, and attempts to correct for otherwise missing data.
Since the SIPP EHC collects information using this autobiographical manner for the prior year, due to the coronavirus pandemic, select questions were modified to include answer options related to the pandemic as well as adding new questions pertaining to the pandemic.
For instance, we adjusted the question regarding being away from work parttime to include being possibly furloughed due to coronavirus pandemic business closures. We also added new questions to collect information on whether the respondent received any stimulus payments.
Affected Public: Individual or households.
Frequency: Annually.
Respondents Obligation: Voluntary.
Legal Authority: Title 13, United States Code, Sections 141, 182.
