                     Collection by OMB

1. Purpose. To provide notification that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has
   approved a data collection related to unemployment compensation (UC) modernization
   incentive payments.

2. References. The Assistance for Unemployed Workers and Struggling Families Act, Title II
   of Division B of Public Law No. 111-5, enacted February 17, 2009; the Social Security Act
   (SSA); the Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA); and Unemployment Insurance Program
   Letters (UIPL) No. 14-09 and 14-09, Change 1.

3. Background. Attachment 1 to UIPL 14-09 indicated that the U. S. Department of Labor
   (DOL) was planning to submit an Information Collection Request to OMB, seeking a new
   OMB control number. A Federal agency cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of
   information unless it is approved by OMB under the Paperwork Reduction Act, and displays a
   currently valid OMB control number. The public is not required to respond to a collection of
   information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.

  A notice of action was issued by OMB authorizing the collection of materials in support of
  UC modernization incentive payments. The OMB control number is 1205-0470; the average
  estimated response time is 8 hours; and the current expiration date for this information

4. Action. State administrators should distribute this advisory to appropriate staff. States do not
   need to take any action as a result of this UIPL. Those states intending to submit applications
   for UC modernization incentive payments through August 22, 2011, should continue to follow
   existing guidance as provided in UIPL 14-09 and UIPL 14-09, Change 1.

5. Inquiries. Questions should be addressed to your Regional Office.
