SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The UCX law (5 U.S.C. 8521-8523) requires 
state workforce agencies (SWAs) to administer the UCX program in 
accordance with the same terms and conditions of the paying state's 
unemployment insurance law, which apply to unemployed claimants who 
worked in the private sector. Each state agency needs to obtain certain 
military service information on claimants filing for UCX benefits to 
enable them to determine his/her eligibility for benefits. For 
additional substantive information about this ICR, see the related 
notice published in the Federal Register on March 11, 202 (90 FR 
11750).
    Comments are invited on: (1) whether the collection of information 
is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the 
Department, including whether the information will have practical 
utility; (2) the accuracy of the agency's estimates of the burden and 
cost of the collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, 
utility and clarity of the information collection; and (4) ways to 
minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are 
to respond, including the use of automated collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology.
    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.
    Agency: DOL-ETA.
    Title of Collection: Unemployment Compensation for Ex-
Servicemembers Handbook.
