FY 2021 Tribal Enrollment Collection Form

Welcome to the Indian Affairs FY 2021 Tribal Enrollment Data Collection Form

What This Form Is: This is a form to collect current enrollment information for federally recognized tribes. Enrollment data is an important source of information which allows the Indian Affairs and other Federal agencies to equitably distribute resources because it is a quantifiable representation of a Tribe’s overall population. 

The information to be collected is a count of the number of individuals enrolled with the Tribe. The collection does not ask for personal details of any member(s), nor does the collection ask for the data to be disaggregated in any way. 

Use of the Information: BIA requests this information immediately to ensure effective, accurate, and timely distribution of assistance to respond to the coronavirus pandemic in Indian Country, as provided in the American Rescue Plan which was recently signed into law.  Specifically, enrollment data will be a primary data source to inform Indian Affairs’ allocation of assistance to Tribal nations, as well as funding to be distributed by the Department of the Treasury. Therefore, once each Tribe receives the form, an authorized Tribal government official is requested to complete, endorse, and return the form within 7-10 days.
