academic, and private research and
commercial organizations in tracking
changes in trends of vital events.
Respondents for the National Vital
Statistics Report form (CDC 64.146) are
registration officials in each State and
Territory, the District of Columbia, and
New York City. In addition, 33 local
(county) officials in New Mexico who
record marriages occurring in each
county of New Mexico will use this
form. The data are routinely available in
each reporting office as a by-product of
ongoing activities. This form is designed
to collect counts of monthly occurrences
of births, deaths, infant deaths,
marriages, and divorces immediately
following the month of occurrence.
The Annual Marriage and Divorce
Occurrence Report form (CDC 64.147)
collects final annual counts of marriages
and divorces by month for the United
States and for each State. The statistical
counts requested on this form differ
from provisional estimates obtained on
the National Vital Statistics Report form
in that they represent complete and
final counts of marriages, divorces, and
annulments occurring during the
months of the prior year. These final
counts are usually available from State
or county officials about eight months
after the end of the data year. The data
are widely used by government,
academic, private research, and
commercial organizations in tracking
changes in trends of family formation
and dissolution.
Respondents for the Annual Marriage
and Divorce Occurrence Report form are
registration officials in each State, the
District of Columbia, New York City,
Guam, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands,
Northern Marianas, and American
Samoa. The data are routinely available
in each reporting office as a by-product
of ongoing activities.
There are no costs to the respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
208.
