the methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality,

Comments regarding this information collection received by October

Food and Nutrition Service
Title: Study of Non-Response to the School Meals Application
Verification Process.
OMB Control Number: 0584-New.
Summary of Collection: The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) and
the School Breakfast Program (SBP) provide subsidized lunches and
breakfasts to millions of students each school day. Students are
certified eligible to receive free or reduced-price (F/RP) meals
through application or direct certification. When eligibility is
determined using an application process, school districts must annually
verify eligibility of children from a sample of household applications
for that school year, unless the State agency assumes responsibility
for verification. This study will examine the accuracy of district
verification procedures.
Need and Use of the Information: Collecting this data will help FNS
to understand the approaches districts take to verification, understand
the accuracy of the verification process and the results it produces in
the context of potential changes, and help to identify potential
improvements to the verification process.
Description of Respondents: State, Local, or Tribal Government;
Individuals or Households.
Number of Respondents: 2,144.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting: Annually.
Total Burden Hours: 5,535.
