Statistics (FIST) Program, the Bureau of
Justice Statistics (BJS) obtains
information from state and local
checking agencies responsible for
maintaining records on the number of
background checks for firearm transfers
or permits that were issued, processed,
tracked, or conducted during the
calendar year. Specifically, state and
local checking agencies are asked to
provide information on the number of
applications and denials for firearm
transfers received or tracked by the
agency and reasons why applications
were denied. BJS combines these data
with the Federal Bureau of
Investigation’s (FBI) National Instant
Criminal Background Check System
(NICS) transaction data to produce
comprehensive national statistics on
firearm applications and denials
resulting from the Brady Handgun
Violence Prevention Act of 1993 and
similar state laws governing background
checks and firearm transfers. BJS also
plans to collect information from the
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms,
and Explosives (ATF) on denials
screened and referred to ATF field
offices for investigation and possible
prosecution. BJS publishes FIST data on
the BJS website in statistical tables and
uses the information to respond to
inquiries from Congress, federal, state,

researchers, students, the media, and
other members of the general public
interested in criminal justice statistics.

minutes for each to complete the FIST
survey form. A projected 1,006
respondents will take part in the 2021
and 2022 data collections with an
average of 25 minutes for each to
complete the FIST survey form.

burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The estimated public burden
hours associated with this collection is
537 hours for the 2019/2020 data
collection and 419 hours annually for
