SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title of Collection: Making Ends Meet Survey. OMB Control Number: 3170–0080. Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection. Affected Public: Individuals or households. Estimated Number of Respondents: 4,500. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 1,375. Abstract: The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act charges the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau with researching, analyzing, and reporting on topics relating to the CFPB’s mission including consumer behavior, consumer awareness, and developments in markets for consumer financial products and services. To improve its understanding of how consumers engage with financial markets, the CFPB has successfully used surveys under its ‘‘Making Ends Meet’’ program. The ‘‘Making Ends Meet’’ program has also used the CFPB’s Consumer Credit Information Panel (CCIP) as a frame to survey people about their experiences in consumer credit markets. The CFPB seeks approval for two yearly surveys under the ‘‘Making Ends Meet’’ program. These surveys solicit information on the consumer’s experience related to household financial shocks, particularly shocks related to the economic effects of the COVID–19 pandemic, how households respond to those shocks, and the role of savings to help provide a financial buffer. The first survey will be a follow-up to respondents from the CFPB’s 2023 VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:10 Mar 25, 2024 Jkt 262001 ‘‘Making Ends Meet’’ survey to better understand household financial experiences dealing with medical debt as well as consumers’ interactions with various financial products. The second survey will go to a new sample of consumers from the CCIP and will address several topics of interest to the CFPB possibly including the impact of natural disasters and other environmental events, credit shopping behavior, additional follow-up regarding debt collection, and the assessment of various fees throughout the financial services ecosystem. Request for Comments: Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the CFPB, including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) The accuracy of the CFPB’s estimate of the burden of the collection of information, including the validity of the methods and the assumptions used; (c) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB’s approval. All comments will become a matter of public record.
