Does a form really need to display the burden statement and the OMB number on the approved data collection instrument?
A. Yes, all of this information must be displayed for the respondent. Ideally, this information should be located on the first page of the data collection instrument or the instructions and/or script. If spacing is a problem on the form or screen then other considerations, are to include the information on a cover sheet, or keep the OMB number on the first page and add the burden statement to the last page of the form.
