Proposed Project
National Vital Statistics Report Forms--Extension--National Center
for Health Statistics (NCHS), Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The National Vital Statistics Report Forms project (0920-0213) is
an approved collection and compilation of national vital statistics.
This collection dates back to the beginning of the 20th century and has
been conducted since 1960 by the Division of Vital Statistics of the
National Center for Health Statistics, CDC. The collection of the data
is authorized by 42 U.S.C. 242k. The National Vital Statistics Report
forms provide counts of monthly occurrences of births, deaths, infant
deaths, marriages, and divorces. Similar data have been published since
1937 and are the sole source of these data at the national level. The
data are used by the Department of Health and Human Services and by
other government,
[[Page 3307]]
academic, and private research and commercial organizations in tracking
changes in trends of vital events.
Respondents for the National Vital Statistics Report form (CDC
64.146) are registration officials in each State and Territory, the
District of Columbia, and New York City. In addition, 33 local (county)
officials in New Mexico who record marriages occurring in each county
of New Mexico will use this form. The data are routinely available in
each reporting office as a by-product of ongoing activities. This form
is designed to collect counts of monthly occurrences of births, deaths,
infant deaths, marriages, and divorces immediately following the month
of occurrence.
The Annual Marriage and Divorce Occurrence Report form (CDC 64.147)
collects final annual counts of marriages and divorces by month for the
United States and for each State. The statistical counts requested on
this form differ from provisional estimates obtained on the National
Vital Statistics Report form in that they represent complete and final
counts of marriages, divorces, and annulments occurring during the
months of the prior year. These final counts are usually available from
State or county officials about eight months after the end of the data
year. The data are widely used by government, academic, private
research, and commercial organizations in tracking changes in trends of
family formation and dissolution.
Respondents for the Annual Marriage and Divorce Occurrence Report
form are registration officials in each State, the District of
Columbia, New York City, Guam, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Northern
Marianas, and American Samoa. The data are routinely available in each
reporting office as a by-product of ongoing activities.
There are no costs to the respondents other than their time. The
total estimated annualized burden hours are 208.
