OMB Burden Statements for Pre-Approved NCI Online Opinion and Feedback Surveys

The Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) seeks to ensure that Federal agencies balance their need to collect information with the burden imposed on the public in complying with the collection. Examples of such collections include applications, surveys, forms, interviews, or questionnaires.

Under the PRA, information collections approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) are linked to OMB Burden Statements that explain more about the specific collection and who to contact for more information.

The burden statement(s) below apply only to pre-approved NCI online opinion and feedback surveys. For more information about NCI's PRA OMB Clearance Program, please visit NCI's Office of Management Policy and Compliance.
