Revision of Agency Information Collection for Financial Assistance and Social Services

摘要

The Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) is proposing to revise and submit to the Office of Management and Budget the information collection, titled "Financial Assistance & Social Services, 25 CFR 20." The information collection is currently authorized by OMB Control Number 1076-0017, which expires March 31, 2012. The information collection requires applicants to provide information in support of their eligibility for BIA assistance and services and requires a subset of those applicants to complete an ISP in order to obtain General Assistance. Revisions include changes to the application form to address all five types of assistance authorized by 25 CFR part 20, a new standardized form for Individual Self-Sufficiency Plans (ISPs), and a new form for tribes to submit information on the amounts of financial assistance received in the prior year.
