ORR proposes to remove a requirement that all states describe a plan for the care, supervision of, and legal responsibility for, refugee children who become unaccompanied in the state. ORR also proposes to remove requirements specific to the Cuban/ Haitian entrants and replace them with an assurance that states will provide all ORR-eligible populations with the benefits and services described in the State Plan. ORR proposes adding language to clarify the following requirements related to the Unaccompanied Refugee Minors (URM) program: State policy on education and training vouchers, medical coverage, the location of URM providers, monitoring procedures, the process for establishing legal responsibility, and information about sub-contractors. States must use a pre-print format for required components of State Plans for ORR- funded refugee resettlement services and benefits prepared by the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) of the Administration for Children and Families (ACF). States must submit by August 15 each year new or amended State Plan for the next Federal fiscal year. For previously approved plan, States must certify no later than October 31 each year that the approved State plan is current and continues in effect. Respondents: State Agencies, Replacement Designees under 45 CFR 400.301(c), and Wilson-Fish Grantees (State 2 Agencies) administering or supervising the administration of programs under Title IV of the Act.

ACL received comments from eightynine (89) organizations and just over 13,900 individuals about the National Survey of Older Americans Act Participants (NSOAAP). ACL reviewed all of the comments.

Comments in Response to the 60 Day Federal Register Notice

    A 60-Day notice was published in the Federal Register in Vol. 82, 
No. 13457 on March 13, 2017. A Notice of Correction was published in 
the Federal Register in Vol. 82, No. 15062 on March 24, 2017, 
announcing that ACL was requesting approval of a proposed extension 
with modifications of a currently approved data collection. A second 
Notice of Correction was published in the Federal Register in Vol. 82, 
No. 20896 on May 4, 2017, announcing that the web location of the 
proposed information collection would change due to an update of the 
ACL.gov Web site.
    ACL received comments from eighty-nine (89) organizations and just 
over 13,900 individuals about the National Survey of Older Americans 
Act Participants (NSOAAP). ACL reviewed all of the comments. Eight (8) 
of the comments were deemed not relevant because they were: (a) 
Programmatic in nature and not survey-related; (b) referencing other 
data collections and not the NSOAAP (e.g., Census); or (c) commentary 
without reference to the NSOAAP. The majority of the comments that ACL 
received expressed the need to retain demographic questions on sexual 
orientation/gender identity. In addition, comments addressed: (a) 
Methodological, survey design, and sampling considerations; (b) concern 
about the survey length; and (c) recommendations to modify and/or add 
clarifying questions throughout the survey. ACL has made minor changes 
to the survey based on some suggested changes, including retaining the 
primary question regarding sexual orientation. This survey has remained 
essentially the same since the last OMB approval on 7/17/2014 (OMB 
Control Number 0985-0023), and the sampling methodology and the data 
collection procedures are identical to the previous survey approved in 
2014.
