ETA is discontinuing the Budget Information Summary Form, ETA 9093. The form is submitted by grantees as part of annual program plan updates. The form, which requires estimates of quarterly expenditures as well as the total carry-over funds from prior program years, is primarily so ETA staff can evaluate granteesâ proposed - versus - actual expenditures over the course of the program year. ETA has determined that the information collected on this form is not essential to monitor grantee expenditures; moreover, information on prior year funds exists on ETA 9130 (OMB Control No. 1205-0461), a form already required for grantees. Discontinuation of this form will reduce the total annual reporting burden on each NFJP grantees by 15 hours per year (with a total reduction of Estimated Annual Burden Hours of 780 hour).
