SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks approval under the PRA for 
revisions to the Unemployment Insurance Claims and Payment Activities 
information collection that provides important program information on 
unemployment insurance claims taking and benefit payment activities 
under State and Federal laws. These data are used for budget 
preparation and control, program planning and evaluation, personnel 
assignment, actuarial and program research, and accounting to the 
Congress and public. This information collection has been classified as 
a revision, because the Emergency Unemployment Compensation 2008 and 
Temporary Extended Unemployment Compensation programs have ended; 
consequently, maintaining the associated information collection 
requirements no longer has practical utility. Social Security Act 
section 303(a)(6) authorizes this information collection. See 42 U.S.C. 
503(a)(6).
    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 1205-0010. The current approval is scheduled to 
expire on October 31, 2015; 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 March 2, 2015 (80 FR 11229).

Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown in 
the ADDRESSES section within thirty (30) days of publication of this 
notice in the Federal Register. In order to help ensure appropriate 
consideration, comments should mention OMB Control Number 1205-0010. 
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, e.g., permitting 
electronic submission of responses.
