    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    The Deficit Reduction Act of 1984 established an Income and Eligibility Verification System (IEVS) for the exchange of information for specific programs administered by state agencies. Under the statute, ETA issued a final rule regarding the Confidentiality and Disclosure of State Unemployment Compensation Information (71 FR 56842). This ICR contains recordkeeping requirements pursuant to regulations at 20 CFR part 603 subpart C, Mandatory Disclosure for Income and Eligibility Verification System (IEVS). For additional substantive information about this ICR, see the related notice published in the Federal Register on August 30, 2022 (87 FR 53011).

    This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and the public is generally not required to respond to an information collection, unless the OMB approves it and displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that does not display a valid OMB Control Number. See5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.

    DOL seeks PRA authorization for this information collection for three (3) years. OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than three (3) years without renewal. The DOL notes that information collection requirements submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs receive a month-to-month extension while they undergo review.
