SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title III, Section 302(a) of the Social
Security Act states that the Secretary of Labor shall certify to the
Secretary of Treasury for payment to each State, which has an
unemployment compensation law approved by the Secretary of Labor under
the Federal Unemployment Tax Act, such amounts necessary for the proper
and efficient administration of such law. The Office of Unemployment
Insurance (OUI) of ETA is responsible for the Tax Performance System
(TPS) which evaluates the employer-related or tax operations of the UI
program. The Contribution Operations report--ETA 581 is the vehicle for
the collection of information required under the TPS program. For
additional substantive information about this ICR, see the related
notice published in the Federal Register on October 26, 2020 (85 FR
67776).
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 the OMB approves it 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
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 cannot be for more than
three (3) years without renewal. The DOL notes that information
collection requirements submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs receive
a month-to-month extension while they undergo review.
