SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 
1997 (NLSY97) includes respondents who were born in the years 1980 
through 1984 and lived in the United States when the survey began in 
1997. The primary objective of the survey is to study the transition 
from full-time schooling to the establishment of careers and families. 
The longitudinal focus of the survey requires information to be 
collected about the same individuals over many years in order to trace 
their education, training, work experience, fertility, income, and 
program participation. One of the goals of the Department of Labor is 
to produce and disseminate timely, accurate, and relevant information 
about the U.S. labor force. The Bureau of Labor Statistics contributes 
to this goal by gathering information about the labor force and labor 
market and disseminating it to policymakers and the public so that 
participants in those markets can make more informed, and thus more 
efficient, choices. Research based on the NLSY97 contributes to the 
formation of national policy in the areas of education, training, 
employment programs, and school-to-work transitions. For additional 
substantive information about this ICR see the related notice published 
in the Federal Register on March 3, 2023 (88 FR 13471).
    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. The current 
approval is scheduled to expire on August 31, 2024.
    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.
    Agency: DOL-BLS.
    Title of Collection: National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997.
