Title of Collection: Case Service
Report (RSA–911).
OMB Control Number: 1820–0508.
Type of Review: An extension without
change of a currently approved
collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: State,
Local, and Tribal Governments.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 312.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 34,446.
Abstract: The Case Service Report
(RSA–911) is used to collect individual
level data on State Vocational
Rehabilitation (VR) program
participants on a quarterly basis. The
data collected in this report are
mandated by section 101(a)(10) and 607
of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Act),
as amended by title IV of the Workforce
Innovation and Opportunity Act
(WIOA) and section 116(d) of WIOA. In
addition, the Rehabilitation Services
Administration (RSA) uses data
reported through this collection to
support its other responsibilities under
the Act. Section 14(a) of the Act calls for
the evaluation of programs authorized
under the Act, as well as an assessment
of the programs’ effectiveness in relation
to cost. Many of these evaluations use
RSA–911 data. RSA also uses data
captured through the RSA–911 during
the conduct of both the annual review
and periodic on-site monitoring of VR
agencies required by section 107 of the
Act to examine the effectiveness of
program performance. Other important
management activities, such as the
provision of technical assistance,
program planning, and budget
preparation and development, are
greatly enhanced through the use of
RSA–911 data. In addition, RSA uses
RSA–911 data in the exchange of data
under a data sharing agreement with the

Social Security Administration and the
U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services as required by section 131 of
the Act. Finally, the RSA–911 is
considered to be one of the most robust
databases in describing the
demographics of the disabled
population in the country and as such
is used widely in researchers’ disabilityrelated analyses and reports.
