The form letter obtains information from a claimant receiving workers’ compensation benefits over an extended period of time. The OWCP uses this information to determine whether the claimant is entitled to continue receiving benefits and whether the benefit amount should be adjusted. This ICR has been classified as a revision, because the OWCP has made a few changes and minor clarifications to the form letter. These changes and clarifications would help to reduce the chance of respondents providing incorrect information and would augment disclosures the OWCP makes SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00065 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 to respondents. More specifically, the changes would align the form with the rights of same sex couples, as specified under United States v. Windsor, and add information about assistance available to respondents with disabilities. This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and the public is generally not required to respond to an information collection, unless it is approved by the OMB under the PRA and displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval for this information collection under Control Number 1240–0016. The current approval is scheduled to expire on April 30, 2014; however, the DOL notes that existing information collection requirements submitted to the OMB receive a month-to-month extension while they undergo review. New requirements would only take effect upon OMB approval. For additional substantive information about this ICR, see the related notice published in the Federal Register on December 20, 2013 (78 FR 77170). Interested parties are encouraged to send comments to the OMB, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown in the ADDRESSES section within 30 days of publication of this notice in the Federal Register. In order to help ensure appropriate consideration, comments should mention OMB Control Number 1240– 0016.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks PRA approval to revise the 
``Request for Information on Earnings, Dual Benefits, Dependents, and 
Third Party Settlements'' (Form Letter CA-1032) information collection. 
The form letter obtains information from a claimant receiving workers' 
compensation benefits over an extended period of time. The OWCP uses 
this information to determine whether the claimant is entitled to 
continue receiving benefits and whether the benefit amount should be 
adjusted. This ICR has been classified as a revision, because the OWCP 
has made a few changes and minor clarifications to the form letter. 
These changes and clarifications would help to reduce the chance of 
respondents providing incorrect information and would augment 
disclosures the OWCP makes to respondents. More specifically, the 
changes would align the form with the rights of same sex couples, as 
specified under United States v. Windsor, and add information about 
assistance available to respondents with disabilities.
    This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency 
generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and 
the public is generally not required to respond to an information 
collection, unless it is approved by the OMB under the PRA and displays 
a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any 
other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to 
penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that 
does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 
1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval for this information collection 
under Control Number 1240-0016. The current approval is scheduled to 
expire on April 30, 2014; however, the DOL notes that existing 
information collection requirements submitted to the OMB receive a 
month-to-month extension while they undergo review. New requirements 
would only take effect upon OMB approval. For additional substantive 
information about this ICR, see the related notice published in the 
Federal Register on December 20, 2013 (78 FR 77170).
    Interested parties are encouraged to send comments to the OMB, 
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown in 
the ADDRESSES section within 30 days of publication of this notice in 
the Federal Register. In order to help ensure appropriate 
consideration, comments should mention OMB Control Number 1240-0016. 
The OMB is particularly interested in comments that:
     Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
     Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the 
burden of the proposed collection of information, including the 
validity of the methodology and assumptions used;
     Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
     Minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate 
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology,
