Overview of This Information Collection

    1. Type of Information Collection: Substantive change to a 
currently approved collection.
    2. The Title of the Form/Collection: Public Safety Officers' 
Benefits (PSOB) Program Applications Package (including currently 
approved collections: Public Safety Officers' Death Benefits 
Applications (1121-0024 and 1121-0025), Public Safety Officers' 
Disability Benefits Application (1121-0166), Public Safety Officers' 
Educational Assistance Application (1121-0220), and a new form titled: 
Public Safety Officers' Appeal Request Application.)
    3. The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of 
the Department sponsoring the collection: None. The applicable 
component within the Department of Justice is the Bureau of Justice 
Assistance, in the Office of Justice Programs.
    4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract:
    Primary: Public Safety Officers who were permanently and totally 
disabled in the line of duty; eligible survivors of Public Safety 
Officers who were killed in the line of duty; eligible spouses and 
children who receive PSOB death benefits, or whose spouse or parent 
received the PSOB disability benefit.
    Abstract: BJA's Public Safety Officers' Benefits (PSOB) Office will 
use the Public Safety Officers' Benefits Program Applications Package 
(including: The Public Safety Officers' Death Benefits Application, the 
Public Safety Officers' Disability Benefits Application, the Public 
Safety Officers' Educational Assistance Application, the Public Safety 
Officers' Appeal Request Application) to collect and confirm the 
following:
     Public Safety Officer Death Benefits Application: BJA's 
Public Safety Officers' Benefits (PSOB) Office will use the Public 
Safety Officer Death Benefits Application information to confirm the 
eligibility of applicants to receive Public Safety Officers' Death 
Benefits. Eligibility is dependent on several factors, including Public 
Safety Officer status, an injury sustained in the line of duty, and the 
claimant status in the beneficiary hierarchy according to the PSOB Act. 
In addition, information to help the PSOB Office identify an individual 
is collected, such as a Social Security number for the Public Safety 
Officer, telephone numbers, and email addresses. Public Safety Officer 
Disability Benefits Application: BJA's Public Safety Officers' Benefits 
(PSOB) Office will use the PSOB Disability Application information to 
confirm the eligibility of applicants to receive Public Safety 
Officers' Disability Benefits. Eligibility is dependent on several 
factors, including Public Safety Officer status, injury sustained in 
the line of duty, and the total and permanent nature of the line of 
duty injury. In addition, information to help the PSOB Office identify 
individuals is collected, such as Social Security number for the Public 
Safety Officer, telephone numbers, and email addresses.
     Public Safety Officer Educational Assistance Application: 
BJA's Public Safety Officers' Benefits (PSOB) Office will use the 
Public Safety Officer Educational Assistance Application information to 
confirm the eligibility of applicants to receive Public Safety Officer 
Educational Assistance benefits. Eligibility is dependent on several 
factors, including the applicant having received or being eligible to 
receive a portion of the PSOB Death Benefit, or having a spouse or 
parent who received the PSOB Disability Benefit. Also considered are 
the applicant's age and the schools being attended. In addition, 
information to help BJA identify an individual is collected, such as 
contact numbers and email addresses.
     Public Safety Officer Appeal Request Application: BJA's 
Public Safety Officers' Benefits (PSOB) Office will use the Public 
Safety Officer Appeal Request Application information to confirm the 
eligibility of applicants who wish to appeal a previous Public Safety 
Officers' Death and Disability Benefit determination. Changes to the 
report form have been made in an effort to streamline the application 
process and eliminate requests for information that are either 
irrelevant or already being collected by other means.
    5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of 
time estimated for an average respondent to respond:
     Public Safety Officer Death Benefits Application: An 
estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of time 
needed for an average respondent to respond is as follows: It is 
estimated that no more than 350 respondents will apply a year. Each 
application takes approximately 360 minutes to complete.
     Public Safety Officer Disability Benefits Application: An 
estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of time 
needed for an average respondent to respond is as follows: It is 
estimated that no more than 100 respondents will apply a year. Each 
application takes approximately 300 minutes to complete.
     Public Safety Officer Educational Assistance Application: 
It is estimated that no more than 200 respondents will apply a year. 
Each application takes approximately 30 minutes to complete.
     Public Safety Officer Appeal Request Application: It is 
estimated that no more than 75 respondents will apply a year. Each 
application takes approximately 30 minutes to complete.
    6. An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection:
     Public Safety Officer Death Benefits Application: An 
estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated with the 
collection: Total Annual Reporting Burden: 350 x 360 minutes per 
application = 126,000 minutes/by 60 minutes per hour = 2,100 hours
     Public Safety Officer Disability Benefits Application: An 
estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated

[[Page 41058]]

with the collection: Total Annual Reporting Burden: 100 x 300 minutes 
per application = 30,000 minutes/by 60 minutes per hour = 500 hours.
     Public Safety Officer Educational Assistance Application: 
The estimated public burden associated with this collection is 100 
hours. It is estimated that respondents will take 30 minutes to 
complete an application. The burden hours for collecting respondent 
data sum to 100 hours (200 respondents x 0.5 hours = 100 hours).
     Public Safety Officer Appeal Request Application: An 
estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated with the 
collection: Total Annual Reporting Burden: 75 x 30 minutes per 
application = 2,250 minutes/by 60 minutes per hour = 37.5 hours.
