This information collection
requirement is necessary to validate eligibility for all
individuals applying for DoD benefits and privileges. These
benefits and privileges include but are not limited to, medical
coverage, DoD identification cards, access to DoD installations,
buildings or facilities, and access to DoD computer systems and
networks. This information collection is required to obtain the
necessary data elements to determine eligible individual's benefits
and privileges, to provide a proper identification card reflecting
those benefits and privileges, and to maintain a centralized
database of the eligible population.
This is a reinstatement with
change of an approved information collection. The numbers of
respondents, the hourly wage of respondents, the hourly wage of
workers processing responses, and operational and maintenance costs
have been updated to reflect current data from this existing
collection and a revised method of submission. The most significant
changes are the additional one-million responses annually on
average, and the preponderance of printed submissions, which are
reflected in increased labor and printing costs. Due to greater
accuracy in the hourly wage of respondents, the annual costs of
this collection on the public have decreased even though the number
of responses has increased.
