The Department of Defense (DoD) is asking for public comments on a new information collection proposal submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act. This information collection relates to the Overseas Citizen Population Survey, which gathers data to help the Federal Voting Assistance Program (FVAP) fulfill requirements under the Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA). The survey involves 18,000 respondents and aims to analyze voter participation among U.S. civilians living abroad, helping to assess and improve voting processes. Comments are welcome until January 15, 2025, and further details can be accessed online or via contact with Mr. Reginald Lucas at the Department of Defense.
