The information collection requires States agencies to issue a warning notice to withhold replacement electronic benefit transfer (EBT) cards or a warning notice for excessive EBT card replacements for individual members of a Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) household requesting four EBT cards in a 12-month period. These notices are being issued to educate SNAP recipients on use of the EBT card and to deter fraudulent activity.

This is a revision of a currently approved information collection; we are requesting 21,940.85 rounded up to 21,941 burden hours. The current overall burden for this collection is 8,336 burden hours. The reporting hours in this submission will increase by 13,605 burden hours. This revision is a more accurate burden request as FNS now has access to almost three years of data collection. This revision is due to adjustments. Data shows that there are more excessive replacement cards than originally estimated. In the previous request we estimated households were 23,811 and we now estimate the number of households at 267,915, an increase of 244,103. The total number of annual responses was previously estimated at 59,528 and now we have increased to 550,994 an increase of 491,466 due to adjustments. Further, the original request did not include any estimate of how long it would take households required to make contact with a State Agency when an EBT card is being withheld. Finally, this revision more accurately reflects the time it takes a State agency to process and send the required notice to a household and the time it would take a household to read the notice sent by the State agency and make contact when necessary.
