Agency form number: FR 3059. OMB control number: 7100–0287. Frequency: One-time survey. Reporters: U.S. families. Estimated annual reporting hours: 8,938 hours. Estimated average hours per response: Pretest, 75 minutes; and Main survey, 75 minutes. Number of respondents: Pretest, 150; and Main survey, 7,000. General description of report: This information collection is voluntary (12 U.S.C. 225a and 263).

Abstract: This would be the eleventh triennial SCF since 1983, the beginning of the current series. This survey is the only source of representative information on the structure of U.S. families’ finances. The survey would collect data on the assets, debts, income, work history, pension rights, use of financial services, and attitudes of a sample of U.S. families. Because the ownership of some assets is relatively concentrated in a small number of families, the survey would make a special effort to ensure proper representation of such assets by systematically oversampling wealthier families.
