DoD Child Development Program – Family Information
OMB Control Number 0704-0515
Summary of Changes from Previously Approved Collection
|
A. JUSTIFICATION
The DoD requires the information in the proposed collection for program planning and management purposes. This collection includes two instruments to include DD Form 2606, “Department of Defense Child Development Program Request for Care Record” and DD Form 2652 “Application for Department of Defense Child Care Fees”. DoD is seeking clearance of DD Form 2606 and DD Form 2652 with this submission:
The completion of DD Form 2606, “Department of Defense Child Development Program Request for Care Record” is required for all patrons to apply for child care and collects general information in regards to the sponsor and family. This form is only completed at the time a sponsor requests child care. The DD Form 2606 is included in DODI 6060.02 “Child Development Programs” and,
The completion of DD Form 2652, "Application for Department of Defense Child Care Fees" is utilized for patrons to apply for DoD child care subsidies based on total family income (TFI). Basic family information and income data is collected. This form is completed annually. The DD Form 2652, "Application for Department of Defense Child Care Fees" is included in DODI 6060.02 “Child Development Programs”.
The information collected through DD Form 2606 and DD Form 2652 is collected under the authority of PL 101-89 and EO 9397.
Use of the Information
Respondents for the information collection through DD Form 2606 and DD Form 2652 are patrons requesting child care and patrons enrolled in CDPs. The DoD CDP requires the information in the proposed collections for program planning, management purposes and the determination of child care fees.
The DD Form 2606 is used to collect information for the type of care needed and sponsor status which determines eligibility and priority for child development program services. It is also used to assist management in the planning of present and future program requirements. The information from the DD Form 2652 is used to determine total family income to determine child care fees for families enrolled in the DoD CDP.
The respondents access the forms from the programs offering DoD CDPs. The respondents complete and return the forms to the DoD CDPs. No invitations are sent to the respondents. Forms are reviewed and verified for accuracy by DoD CDP administrative personnel. The DD Form 2606 determines the child care need and waitlist management processes. The DD Form 2652 collects total family income data to determine child care fees. Information collected on the forms may be shared on a need to know basis within the DoD, and otherwise as provided by the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a.
Use of Information Technology
While these forms can be downloaded as fillable .pdf’s, there is not an electronic collection system in place for these forms. As electronic collection systems are developed, a Privacy Impact Assessment will be conducted for all forms by the respective Military service. DoD is exploring the opportunities to move to a primarily electronic based collection in the future.
Non - Duplication
The information obtained through this collection is unique and is not already available for use or adaption from another cleared source.
The collection of information does not impose a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small businesses or entities.
Less Frequent Collection
The DD Form 2606 is only completed at the time a sponsor requests child care. The statutory requirement of collecting total family income data via DD Form 2652 is required once per year. If DD Form 2652 is not completed by patrons once per year, the programs would not be compliant with statutory requirements.

This collection of information does not require collection to be conducted in a manner inconsistent with the guidelines delineated in 5 CFR 1320.5(d)(2).
