OMB Nonsubstantive Change Request
Department: Commerce
Agency: U.S. Census Bureau
Title: 2020 Census Post-Enumeration Survey Initial and Final Housing Unit Follow-up Operations
OMB Control Number: 0607-1010
Expiration Date: 11/30/2022
Request: The Census Bureau is submitting this Nonsubstantive Change Request to provide a schedule change for the 2020 Census Post-Enumeration Survey (PES) Final Housing Unit Follow-Up (FHUFU) operation. The PES FHUFU and FHUFU Quality Control (QC) operations were planned to occur November 2021 through February 2022. This date was approved by OMB on 10/25/2021. As a result of the ongoing impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the schedule of the preceding PES operations and staffing challenges, the Census Bureau is proposing to delay the data collection schedule for the PES FHUFU and FHUFU QC operations from what was previously stated to November 2021 through March 2022. We will follow up with households beginning with a soft launch in late November 2021, and with full production starting in late December 2021 through March 2022.
This schedule change should not impact the release date of the PES housing unit estimates, which is scheduled for summer of 2022.
