CDC will continue to submit individual collections under this generic clearance to OMB. OMB will strive to provide feedback on the individual collections within ten working days, whenever possible, as is currently the case. Standard remuneration of respondents for cognitive testing ($40) and focus groups ($75) applies until research is presented suggesting these rates should be changed or in situation where evidence already exists that a particular subpopulation requires a higher incentive.
