Review and Approval; Comment
Request; Household Pulse Survey
On February 14, 2023, the Department
of Commerce received clearance from
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 to
conduct Phase 3.8 of the Household
Pulse Survey (OMB No. 0607–1013,
Exp. 10/31/23). The Household Pulse
Survey was designed to meet a need for
timely information associated with
household experiences during the
Covid–19 pandemic. The Department is
committed to ensuring that the data
collected by the Household Pulse
Survey continue to meet information
needs as they may evolve over the
course of the pandemic. This notice
serves to inform of the Department’s
intent to request clearance from OMB to
make some revisions to the Household
Pulse Survey questionnaire. To ensure
that the data collected by the Household
Pulse Survey continue to meet
information needs as they evolve over
the course of the pandemic, the Census
Bureau submits this Request for
Revision to an Existing Collection for a
revised Phase 3.9 questionnaire.
Phase 3.9 includes an experiment
involving new detailed race and
ethnicity questions, as well as new
questions on the use of antivirals to treat
COVID, how households obtain COVID

tests, the use of infant formula with
babies, children’s mental health
treatment, and pressure to move from
current residence. There are also
modifications to existing children’s
vaccine booster, COVID testing, infant
formula, reasons not working,
unemployment insurance, Medicaid,
and inflation items. Several questions
will be removed for Phase 3.9, including
replacing the current race/ethnicity
items, and questions about the receipt of
updated COVID vaccines, intent to
vaccinate children, childcare
arrangements, children’s mental health
and behaviors, current rent amount, use
of emergency rental assistance, and how
children receive their education.
It is the Department’s intention to
commence data collection using the
revised instrument on or about
December 7, 2022. The Department
invites the general public and other
Federal agencies to comment on
proposed, and continuing information
collections, which helps us assess the
impact of our information collection
requirements and minimize the public’s
reporting burden. Public comments
were previously sought on the
Household Pulse Survey via the Federal
Register on May 19, 2020, June 3, 2020,
February 1, 2021, April 13, 2021, June
24, 2021, October 26, 2021, January 24,
2022, April 18, 2022, July 2, 2022, and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:

I. Abstract
SelectUSA, within the International
Trade Administration, provides
programs and services that focus on
facilitating job-creating business
investment into the United States and
raising awareness of the critical role that
economic development plays in the U.S.
economy. These programs include
information products, services, and
trade events to potential foreign
investors into the United States and to
U.S.-based economic development
organizations. To accomplish its
mission effectively, SelectUSA requires
detailed information from clients in
order to provide resources and services
that meet each specific client’s needs.
This information collection item allows
ITA to solicit clients’ interest for the use
of ITA products, services, and trade
events. To promote optimal use and
effective response to client needs
through ITA services and programs, we
are requesting approval for this
clearance package. Upon approval by
OMB, ITA will use the approved
information collection to collect client
input by the use of multiple data
collection methods, including Comment
Cards (i.e., transactional-based surveys),
web-enabled surveys sent via email,
telephone interviews, automated
telephone surveys, and in-person

surveys via mobile devices/laptops/
tablets at trade events/shows. The use of
these multiple data collection methods
is suggested solely to reduce the public
burden in responding to requests for
input. Without this information, ITA is
unable to systematically determine the
actual and relative levels of user needs
for its programs and products/services
and to provide clear, actionable insights
for client use. This information will be
used for strategic planning, allocation of
resources, and stakeholder reporting.
II. Method of Collection
The International Trade
Administration is seeking approval for
the following data collection methods to
provide flexibility in conducting
customer intake surveys and to reduce
the burden on respondents: (1) an email
message delivering a hot link to a web
enabled survey with an email reminder
sent if the client does not respond to the
survey within two weeks; (2) a
telephone survey/interview; and (3) a
web-enabled survey conducted inperson at trade shows/events via a
laptop, tablet or mobile phone so
participants can immediately respond
without having to provide their email
address.
III. Data
OMB Control Number: 0625–XXXX.
Form Number(s): None.
