Farm Service Agency *Title:* Customer Data Worksheet Request for SCIMS Record Change. *OMB Control Number:* 0560-0265. *Summary of Collection:* Core Customer Data is required in order to identify USDA program participants and ensure that benefits are directed to the correct customer and respective Tax Identification Numbers. There is no public law regarding the use or collection of Core Customer Data. The option to document and track Core Customer Data changes is necessary to ensure the integrity of the data and to provide the Farm Service Agency (FSA), Natural Resources and Conservation Service and Rural Development a method of verifying the validity of the information, and provide a necessary basis for pursuing legal remedies when needed. *Need and Use of the Information:* Core Customer Data is necessary to input customer information for identity purposes and to provide a point of contact for the respective customer and a valid Tax Identification Number to direct program benefits to. The AD-2047 will be used to document Corel Customer Data changes and also to provide a method to identify who made applicable changes and when this was done. Failure to collect and timely maintain the data collected will result in erroneous/out dated point of contact information, which could result in program information and benefits being directed to incorrect recipients. *Description of Respondents:* Individuals or households. *Number of Respondents:* 51,750. *Frequency of Responses:* Reporting: Other (when necessary). *Total Burden Hours:* 8,798.
