B. Collections of Information Employing Statistical Methods
1. Universe and Respondent Selection
Sampling methods are not employed in the Age Search Program. An age search is only conducted for a specific address when a customer requests a search, meets all the criteria for a search, and pays the necessary fees associated with the search.
2. Procedures for Collecting Information
The information used in the Age Search process is found in data collected in the decennial censuses. The Fiscal Services Office in Jeffersonville, Indiana maintains the 1910-2010 censuses for searching purposes.
3. Methods to Maximize Response
Not applicable
4. Tests of Procedures or Methods
The forms, procedures and methods used in the Age Search Program are essentially the same forms that have been used for many years. On the Census Bureau website, there is a tutorial titled Age Search Service Script that will walk an applicant through the process.
