The Department of Labor
(DOL), Employment and Training
Administration is soliciting comments
regarding a proposed extension for the
authority to conduct the information
collection request (ICR) titled, ‘‘Tax
Performance System.’’ This comment
request is part of continuing
Departmental efforts to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA).
DATES: Consideration will be given to all
written comments received by April 30,
2024.
ADDRESSES: A copy of this ICR with
applicable supporting documentation;
including a description of the likely
respondents, proposed frequency of
response, and estimated total burden
may be obtained at no cost by contacting
Keith Ribnick by telephone at 202–693–

The DOL,
as part of continuing efforts to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies an opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing collections of information
before submitting them to the OMB for
final approval. This program helps to
ensure requested data can be provided
in the desired format, reporting burden
(time and financial resources) is
minimized, collection instruments are
clearly understood, and the impact of
collection requirements can be properly
assessed.
Since 1987, states have been required
by regulation at 20 CFR part 602 to
operate a program to assess their
Unemployment Insurance (UI) tax and
benefit programs. TPS is designed to
assess the major internal UI tax
functions by utilizing several
methodologies to examine the accuracy
of the ETA 581, Contribution Operations
Report, OMB approval number 1205–
0178, expiring July 31, 2024, and its
associated Computed Measures. A twofold examination contains ‘‘Systems
Reviews,’’ examining tax systems for the
existence of internal controls and the
extraction of small samples of those
systems’ transactions, which are then
examined to verify the effectiveness of
controls. Section 303(a)(1) of the Social
Security Act authorizes this information
collection.
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.

commenters not to include personally
identifiable information, confidential
business data, or other sensitive
statements/information in any
comments.
The DOL 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).

Section 190 of the Workforce
Innovation and Opportunity Act
(WIOA) (Pub. L. 113–128, July 22, 2014)
permits states to apply for Workflex
waiver authority. The Act and 20 CFR
679.630 provide that the Secretary may
grant Workflex waiver authority for up
to five years pursuant to a Workflex
plan submitted by a state. Under
Workflex, governors are granted the
authority to approve requests submitted
by their local areas to waive certain
statutory and regulatory provisions of
WIOA Title I programs. States may
request waivers from the Secretary of
certain requirements of the WagnerPeyser Act (sections 8–10) as well as
certain provisions of the Older
American Act of 1965 (OAA) (42 U.S.C.
305d(b)) for state agencies on aging with
respect to activities carried out using
funds allotted under OAA section
506(b). One of the underlying principles
for granting Workflex waivers is that the
waivers will result in improved
performance outcomes for persons
served and that the waiver authority
will be granted in consideration of
improved performance.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
