SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB
Number: Federal Write-In Absentee
Ballot (FWAB), Standard Form 186 (SF–
186); OMB Control Number 0704–0502.
Needs and Uses: The information
collection requirement is necessary to
fulfill the requirement of the Uniformed
and Overseas Absentee Voting Act
(UOCAVA), 46 U.S.C. 1973ff wherein
the Secretary of Defense is to prescribe
the Federal write-in absentee ballot for
absent uniformed service voters and
overseas voters in general elections for
Federal office. The Department of
Defense, Under Secretary of Defense
(Personnel and Readiness), Federal
Voting Assistance Program, revised the
SF 186, Federal Write-In Absentee
Ballot and SF 186A, Federal Write-In
Absentee Ballot (Electronic) to comply
with Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
Affected Public: Individuals or
Households.
Annual Burden Hours: 300,000.
Number of Respondents: 1,200,000.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Average Burden per Response: 15
minutes.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondents are UOCAVA citizens
who desire to vote in a Federal election
but did not receive an absentee ballot
from their State of residency with
enough time to vote and return it. The
information provided by these citizens
is used by the States to determine if the
citizen is a resident of a jurisdiction
within that State, has previously
requested an absentee ballot (when
applicable) and therefore eligible for the
enclosed ballot to be counted. In States
that allow the form to be used as a voter
registration form, the information
provided is used by the States to
PO 00000
Frm 00007
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
determine if the citizen is a resident of
a jurisdiction within that State, and
therefore eligible to vote within that
jurisdiction and to provide absentee
ballots to these citizens for Federal
elections held within each calendar
year. This form is mandated by 42 U.S.C
1973ff. The Department of Defense does
not receive, collect nor maintain any
data provided on the form by these
citizens; this data is collected and
maintained by the individual States.
The burden in the collection of this data
resides in the individual States. If the
form is not provided, UOCAVA citizens
would not have access to the emergency
backup ballot and thus, may be
disenfranchised from their right as a
U.S. citizen to participate in the
electoral process.
The previous edition of this form is
dated 08–2013. The form had been
updated for usability and consistency.
The most significant changes to the form
were the addition of the Agency
Disclosure Statement and Block 2
classification options. Comments are
invited on the usability of the SF 186,
Federal Write-In Absentee Ballot.
Interested parties should locate the PDF
form in the docket where it is available
for download and testing.
