In response to a congressional mandate, this new information collection request will help determine if the employment and training programs and services provided by each pilot program led to unsubsidized work, increased earnings, and reduced reliance on public assistance programs.
This is a revision of a currently approved information collection as a result of program changes.The reason for the revision is that the research team has concluded study enrollment, the 12-month follow-up survey, and all three rounds of site visits. The burden hours for these data collection activities were removed from the burden estimates.
During this renewal process we discovered the burden hours and total responses identified and approved in ROCIS are incorrect which indicates 41,764 burden hours and 162,082 responses; the approved supporting statement correctly displayed the requested burden hours and total responses indicated above. This request will reflect program adjustments in ROCIS for an additional 8,202 burden hours and 155,026.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
