SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
OMB No.: OMB 0412.
Form No.: N/A.
Title: PVO Classification Form.
Type of Review: New.
Purpose: The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) requires all private voluntary organizations (PVOs) that wish to be eligible to compete for most forms of foreign economic assistance administered by USAID to register with the Agency. Registration provides a resource for USAID officials to access financial and program information on PVOs. The PVO Registry is a central clearinghouse for information on PVOs working in countries where elsewhere the U.S. Government would not have knowledge of the activities.
To confirm the data is collected in a formalized and consistent
manner, USAID has developed the Classification Form's list of sectors
and countries that will show where qualified and interested PVOs registered with USAID are working.
Annual Reporting Burden:
Respondents: 450.
Total annual responses: 450.
Total annual hours requested: 150 hours.
