Description: On May 25, 2007 the
President signed into law the Small
Business and Work Opportunity Tax Act
of 2007 (Pub. L. 110–28). Section 8211
PO 00000
Frm 00049
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

of this Act extended and modified the
WOTC Program for a continuing 44month period through August 31, 2011.
The new provisions and amendments to
certain target groups apply to new hires
that begin to work for an employer after
May 25. Another recent legislation, the
Tax Relief and Health Care Act of 2006
(Pub. L. 109–432) signed into law on
December 20, 2006 extended the WOTC
for two additional years through
December 31, 2007 and consolidated the
program by merging the Welfare-toWork Tax Credit into the WOTC. This
Act also made various amendments and
introduced new provisions that
streamline the program and make it
easier for the business sector to
participate. The statutory changes and
new provisions required that the
following program report, processing
and administrative forms, and materials
be revised and updated to reflect the
new changes and provisions:
To request a certification from a state
workforce agency (SWA), employers or
their representatives must submit not
only IRS Form 8850 but also either ETA
Form 9061 or 9062. SWAs cannot
process timely filed but incomplete
requests. Through a special arrangement
with OMB, IRS Form 8850 was cleared
by OMB May 26, 2007. Therefore, ETA
is requesting this emergency ICR
approval of the listed forms and
program materials so that the SWAs can
start processing all the new certification
requests with the changes that became
effective May 26, 2007. This emergency
approval will help prevent the
accumulation of unprocessed timely
filed certification requests, which will
result in significant backlogs for the
states and the timely issuance to
employers of certifications for all the
new eligible hires in accordance with
Congressional intent.
Darrin King,
Acting Departmental Clearance Officer.
