DEPARTMENT OF LABOR Employment and Training Administration Revised Schedule of Remuneration for the Unemployment Compensation for Ex-Servicemembers (UCX) Program That Reflects the Military Pay Increase Effective January 1, 2025 Employment and Training Administration, U.S. Department of Labor. AGENCY: ACTION: Notice. Each year, the Department of Defense issues a Schedule of Remuneration used by states for UCX purposes. States use the schedule to determine Federal military wages for UCX ‘‘first claims’’ only when the Federal Claims Control Center (FCCC) responds to a request for information indicating that there is no Department of Labor copy of the Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, commonly known DD Form 214 (DD214) for an individual under the social security number provided. A response from the FCCC that indicates ‘‘no DD214 on file’’ will prompt the state to start the affidavit process and to use the attached schedule to calculate the Federal military wages for an unemployment insurance or UCX monetary determination. The schedule applies to UCX ‘‘first claims’’ filed beginning with the first day of the first week that begins on or after January 1, 2025, pursuant to the UCX program regulations (see 20 CFR 614.12(c)). States must continue to use the 2024 schedule (or other appropriate schedule) for UCX ‘‘first claims’’ filed before the effective date of the revised schedule.

In particular, as part of DOL’s effort to streamline program performance reporting for ETA grants with significant apprenticeship components as a primary goal of the program (Apprenticeship grants), DOL is adding the performance information collection requirements for Apprenticeship grants. DOL also is adding a new information collection requirement to this ICR: the Apprenticeship Outreach: Organization/ Employer Record Layout.

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 OMB Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. DOL seeks PRA authorization for this information collection for three (3) years. OMB authorization for an ICR E:\FR\FM\06JAN1.SGM 06JAN1

Revised Schedule of Remuneration for the Unemployment 
Compensation for Ex-Servicemembers (UCX) Program That Reflects the 
Military Pay Increase Effective January 1, 2025

AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration, U.S. Department of 
Labor.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Each year, the Department of Defense issues a Schedule of 
Remuneration used by states for UCX purposes. States use the schedule 
to determine Federal military wages for UCX ``first claims'' only when 
the Federal Claims Control Center (FCCC) responds to a request for 
information indicating that there is no Department of Labor copy of the 
Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, commonly known DD 
Form 214 (DD214) for an individual under the social security number 
provided. A response from the FCCC that indicates ``no DD214 on file'' 
will prompt the state to start the affidavit process and to use the 
attached schedule to calculate the Federal military wages for an 
unemployment insurance or UCX monetary determination.
    The schedule applies to UCX ``first claims'' filed beginning with 
the first day of the first week that begins on or after January 1, 
2025, pursuant to the UCX program regulations (see 20 CFR 614.12(c)). 
States must continue to use the 2024 schedule (or other appropriate 
schedule) for UCX ``first claims'' filed before the effective date of 
the revised schedule. Below is the 2025 Federal Schedule of 
Remuneration recently released by the Department of Defense.
