Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection:
Reinstatement of the Identity Theft
Supplement, with changes, a previously
approved collection for which approval
has expired.
(2) The Title of the Form/Collection:
2021 Identity Theft Supplement.
(3) The agency form number, if any,
and the applicable component of the
Department sponsoring the collection:
The form number for the questionnaire
is ITS–1. The applicable component
within the Department of Justice is the
Bureau of Justice Statistics, in the Office
of Justice Programs.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Respondents will be persons
16 years or older living in households
located throughout the United States
sampled for the National Crime
Victimization Survey (NCVS). The ITS
will be conducted as a supplement to
the NCVS in all sample households for
a six (6) month period. The ITS is
primarily an effort to measure the
prevalence of identity theft among
persons, the characteristics of identity
theft victims, and patterns of reporting
to the police, credit bureaus, and other
authorities. The ITS was also designed
to collect important characteristics of
identity theft such as how the victim’s
personal information was obtained; the
physical, emotional and financial
impact on victims; offender information;
and the measures people take to avoid
or minimize their risk of becoming an
identity theft victim. BJS plans to
publish this information in reports and
reference it when responding to queries
from the U.S. Congress, Executive Office
of the President, the U.S. Supreme
Court, state officials, international
organizations, researchers, students, the
media, and others interested in criminal
justice statistics.
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: An estimate of the total
number of respondents is 104,910. An
estimated 90.2% of respondents
(94,630) will have no identity theft and
will complete the short interview with
an average burden of eight minutes.
Among the 9.8% of respondents
(10,280) who experience at least one
incident of identity theft, the time to ask
the detailed questions regarding the
aspects of the most recent incident of
identity theft is estimated to take an
average of fifteen minutes. Respondents
will be asked to respond to this survey

only once during the six-month period.
The burden estimate is based on actual
interview times from the 2018 ITS, an
analysis of the 2021 ITS questionnaire
changes, and mock interviews done
with the 2021 questionnaire.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: There are an estimated
15,185 total burden hours associated
with this collection.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background: The Chief Evaluation
Office (CEO) of the U.S. Department of
Labor (DOL) intends to design and
conduct evaluations of DOL-funded
apprenticeship initiatives through the
Apprenticeship Evidence-Building
Portfolio. The portfolio of initiatives
includes the Scaling Apprenticeship
Through Sector-Based Strategies grants,
Closing the Skills Gap grants, Youth
Apprenticeship Readiness grants, and
other DOL investments. The goal of this
five-year study is to build evidence on
apprenticeship models, practices, and
partnership strategies in high-growth
occupations and industries. The overall
study is comprised of several
components: (1) An implementation
study of the Scaling Apprenticeship and
Closing the Skills Gap grants to develop
typologies of apprenticeship models and
practices, identify promising strategies
across the portfolio, and to better
understand the implementation of
models to help interpret impact
evaluation findings; (2) a study of
registered apprenticeship state systems
and partnerships to assess their capacity
to develop, design, modify, implement,
replicate, sustain, expand/scale up, and
evaluate apprenticeship strategies and
models; and (3) an implementation
evaluation of the Youth Apprenticeship
Readiness grant program to understand
service delivery design and
implementation, challenges, and
promising practices. DOL will submit
additional ICRs for future data
collection requests for this overall
study.
