Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection:
Extension of a currently approved
collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection:
Victims of Crime Act, Crime Victim
Assistance Grant Program, State
Performance Report.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the
Department sponsoring the collection:
The form number is 1121–0115.
Office for Victims of Crime, Office of
Justice Programs, U.S. Department of
Justice is sponsoring the collection.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary: Primary: State
government. Other: None. The VOCA,
Crime Victim Assistance Grant Program,
State Performance Report is a required
annual submission by state grantees to
report to the Office for Victims of Crime
(OVC) on the uses and effects VOCA
victim assistance grant funds have had
on services to crime victims in the State,
to certify compliance with the eligibility
requirement of VOCA, and to provide a
summary of supported activities carried
out within the State during the grant
period. This information will be
aggregated and serve as supporting
documentation for the Director’s
biennial report to the President and to
the Congress on the effectiveness of the
activities supported by these grants.
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond/reply: The information to
compile these reports will be drawn
from victim assistance program data to
the 56 respondents (grantees). The
number of victim assistance programs
varies widely from state to state. A state
could be responsible for compiling
subgrant data for as many as 436

programs (California) to as few as 12
programs (District of Columbia).
Therefore, the estimated clerical hours
can range from 1 to 70 hours.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The current estimated
burden is 1,176 (20) hours per
respondent (estimate median) + 1 hour
per respondent for recordkeeping × 56
respondents = 1,176). There is a
decrease in the annual recordkeeping
and reporting burden. This decrease is
a result of a change in the number of
respondents reporting.
