SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract

    The BIA is seeking to renew the information collection it conducts 
to provide assistance under 25 CFR 20 to eligible Indians when 
comparable financial assistance or social services either are not 
available or not provided by State, Tribal, county, local, or other 
Federal agencies. Approval for this collection expires June 30, 2017. 
The information collection allows BIA to determine whether an 
individual is eligible for assistance and services. No third party 
notification or public disclosure burden is associated with this 
collection.

II. Request for Comments

    The BIA requests your comments on this collection concerning: (a) 
The necessity of this information collection for the proper performance 
of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will 
have practical utility; (b) The accuracy of the agency's estimate of 
the burden (hours and cost) of the collection of information, including 
the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) Ways we could 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be 
collected; and (d) Ways we could minimize the burden of the collection 
of the information on the respondents.
    Please note that an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and an 
individual need not respond to, a collection of information unless it 
displays a valid OMB Control Number.
    It is our policy to make all comments available to the public for 
review at the location listed in the ADDRESSES section. Before 
including your address, phone number, email address or other personal 
identifying information in your comment, you should be aware that your 
entire comment--including your personal identifying information--may be 
made publicly available at any time. While you can ask us in your 
comment to withhold your personal identifying information from public 
review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.
