SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Labor's Veterans'
Employment and Training Service administers funds for the Jobs for
Veterans State Grant (JVSG) to each state, the District of Columbia,
Puerto Rico, Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands on an annual fiscal year
basis. These non-competitive, formula-driven grants are codified under
Title 38, United States Code, (38 U.S.C.) Section 4102A(b)(5). This ICR
collects the required information for the submission of JVSG State
Plans and Modifications. The information covered includes the state's
plan for furnishing employment, training, and placement services under
38 U.S.C. Chapter 41, including their performance goals for Disabled
Veterans Outreach Program staff services to eligible veterans and other
eligible persons. For additional substantive information about this
ICR, see the related notice published in the Federal Register on
December 9, 2025 (90 FR 57099).
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
[[Page 10421]]
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.
