TO:                     STATE WORKFORCE AGENCIES

FROM:                   EMILY STOVER DeROCCO /s/
                        Assistant Secretary

SUBJECT:                ETA 191, Statement of Expenditures and Financial Adjustments of
                        Federal Funds for Unemployment Compensation for Federal Employees
                        and Ex-Servicemembers (UCFE/UCX)

1. Purpose. To announce the extension of Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval
   of Form ETA 191, Statement of Expenditures and Financial Adjustments of Federal Funds
   for Unemployment Compensation for Federal Employees and Ex-Servicemembers.

2. Background. The Unemployment Compensation for Federal Employees (UCFE) law and
   the Unemployment Compensation for Ex-Servicemembers (UCX) law both require each
   Federal employing agency to pay the costs of regular and extended UCFE/UCX benefits paid
   to its former employees by state unemployment compensation agencies (5 U.S.C. 8501-
   8509). The ETA 191 report provides quarterly information reflecting the amount of benefits
   that should be charged to each Federal employing agency.

3. OMB Approval. The reporting requirements are approved by OMB according to the
   Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 under OMB approval No. 1205-0162, which expires on
   August 31, 2009. Respondent’s obligation to reply to these reporting requirements is
   mandatory (SSA 303 (a)(6)). Note: State agencies are not required to respond to this
   collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

4. Burden Disclosure Statement. Public reporting for this collection of information is
   estimated to average 6 hours per response for the ETA 191, including the time for reviewing
   instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and
   completing and reviewing the collection of information.
