2026 Census Test, Peak Data Collection

Loading Events

On January 6th, the Census Bureau published a Federal Register Notice seeking feedback on the 2026 Census Test. The purpose of this notice is to allow for 60 days of public comment on the proposed new information collection, for the 2026 Census Test, prior to the submission of the information collection request (ICR) to Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval. The Census Bureau is soliciting public comments to permit the Department/Bureau to: (a) Evaluate whether the proposed information collection is necessary for the proper functions of the Department, including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) Evaluate the accuracy of our estimate of the time and cost burden for this proposed collection, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) Evaluate ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) Minimize the reporting burden on those who are to respond, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

There is a 60-day comment period ending March 11, 2025.
