DATES:
Section
4007 of Title IV of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
(ERISA) requires pension plans covered
under Title IV pension insurance
programs to pay premiums to PBGC. All
plans covered by Title IV pay a flat-rate
per-participant premium. An
underfunded single-employer plan also
pays a variable-rate premium based on
the value of the plan’s unfunded vested
benefits.
Pursuant to section 4007, PBGC has
issued its regulation on Payment of
Premiums (29 CFR part 4007). Under
§ 4007.3 of the premium payment
regulation, the plan administrator of
each pension plan covered by Title IV
amozie on DSK30RV082PROD with NOTICES
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Jkt 244001
of ERISA is required to file a premium
payment and information prescribed by
PBGC for each premium payment year.
Premium information must be filed
electronically using ‘‘My Plan
Administration Account’’ (‘‘My PAA’’)
through PBGC’s website except to the
extent PBGC grants an exemption for
good cause in appropriate
circumstances, in which case the
information must be filed using an
approved PBGC form. Under § 4007.10
of the premium payment regulation,
plan administrators are required to
retain records about premiums and
information submitted in premium
filings.
Premium filings report (i) the flat-rate
premium and related data (all plans), (ii)
the variable-rate premium and related
data (single-employer plans), and (iii)
additional data such as identifying
information and miscellaneous planrelated or filing-related data (all plans).
PBGC needs this information to identify
the plans for which premiums are paid,
to verify whether the amounts paid are
correct, to help PBGC determine the
magnitude of its exposure in the event
of plan termination, to help track the
creation of new plans and transfer of
participants and plan assets and
liabilities among plans, and to keep
PBGC’s insured-plan inventory up to
date. That information and the retained
records are also needed for audit
purposes.
The collection of information under
the regulation has been approved by
OMB through March 31, 2018, under
control number 1212–0009. On January
24, 2018 (at 83 FR 3369), PBGC gave
public notice that it intended to request
extension of OMB approval of this
collection of information for three years
and invited public comment. No
comments were received. An agency
may not conduct or sponsor, and a
person is not required to respond to, a
collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
PBGC estimates that it will receive
23,700 premium filings per year from
23,700 plan administrators under this
collection of information. PBGC further
estimates that the annual burden of this
collection of information is 10,439
hours and $16,392,500.

Abstract of Proposed Collection
The Electronic Application for
Immigrant Visa and Alien Registration
(DS–260) is used to collect biographical
information from individuals seeking an
immigrant visa. The consular officer
uses the information collected to elicit
information necessary to determine an
applicant’s eligibility for a visa.
Methodology
The DS–260 will be submitted
electronically over an encrypted
connection to the Department via the
internet. The applicant will be
instructed to print a confirmation page
containing a bar coded record locator,
which will be scanned at the time of
processing.
Additional Information
The Department is revising the
collection to add several additional
questions for immigrant visa applicants.
One question lists multiple social media
platforms and requires the applicant to
provide any identifiers used by
applicants for those platforms during
the five years preceding the date of
application. The platforms listed may be
updated by the Department by adding or
removing platforms. Additional
platforms will be added only if
collection is consistent with the uses
described in the Supporting Statement
and after Office of Management and
Budget approval. In addition, the
applicant will be given the option to
provide information about any social
media identifiers associated with any
platforms other than those that are listed
that the applicant has used in the last
five years. The Department will collect
this information for identity resolution
and vetting purposes based on statutory
visa eligibility standards. Other
questions seek five years of previously
used telephone numbers, email
addresses, and international travel; all
prior immigration violations; and
whether specified family members have
been involved in terrorist activities. The
‘‘Sign and Submit’’ statement will
provide applicants information related
to correcting records within Federal
Bureau of Investigation databases and
additional information regarding the
immigrant visa medical examination.
Applicants from countries where female
genital mutilation/cutting (FGM/C) is
prevalent will be provided a link in the
DS–260 to an electronic pamphlet that
covers the illegality of the practice in
the United States. Further, applicants
will be required to check a box verifying
