Abstract: This collection describes reemployment activities for UI claimants in Federal programs to comply with PL 112-96, the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012. The basic report format is very similar to the ETA 9002 report (OMB number 1205-0240), which covers quarterly performance data for the Wagner-Peyser Act funded public labor exchange. ETA has well established reporting instructions, reporting software, reporting formats and reporting logic that are used with existing reemployment service delivery reporting for UI claimants, and this structure also serves UI claimants in Federal programs, as required by PL 112-96.

Short Statement: While the information collection has not changed, the Agency has reconsidered whether the collection imposes a parallel burden on States and individual participants. Individuals must make third-party disclosures to States; in turn States record the information to allow for later reporting. This reconsideration resulted in an increase of 3,500,000 responses and 116,667 hours.
