Abstract: The Department of Labor (Department), Employment and Training Administration (ETA) is submitting this Information Collection Request (ICR) to implement and collect an annual Reemployment Services and Eligibility Assessment (RESEA) state plan as described in Section 306(e) of the Social Security Act (SSA). On February 9, 2018, the President signed the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, Public Law 115-123 (BBA), which included amendments to the SSA that create a permanent authorization for the RESEA program. Section 306 of the SSA introduced several new program requirements including the requirement that states must submit an annual state plan to be considered eligible for funding. To be considered eligible for RESEA funding for a Fiscal Year, a state must submit a state plan that outlines how the state intends to conduct a program of reemployment services and eligibility assessments by responding to all the required elements identified in Section 306(e) of the SSA and this ICR.
