SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

221 (a) of Title II, Chapter 2 of the Trade 

Act of 1974, as amended by the Trade 

and Globalization Adjustment 

Assistance Act of 2009 (19 U.S.C. 2271), 

authorizes the Secretary of Labor and 

the Governor of each State to accept 

petitions for certification of eligibility to 

apply for adjustment assistance. 

Versions of Form ETA–9042, Petition 

for Trade Adjustment Assistance and 

Alternative Trade Adjustment 

Assistance, establish a format that may 

be used for filing such petitions. DOL 

regulations regarding petitions for 

worker adjustment assistance may be 

found at 29 CFR part 90. Forms ETA– 

8562a, ETA–8562 a–1, ETA–8562 b, 

ETA–9118, ETA–9043a, and ETA–9043b 

are all undertaken in accordance with 

sections 222, 223, and 249 of the Trade 

Act of 1974, as amended by the Trade 

and Globalization Adjustment 

Assistance Act of 2009. The Secretary 

uses this information to certify whether 

groups of workers are eligible to apply 

for worker trade adjustment assistance. 

Revisions contained in this ICR will: (1) 

Align petitions (Form ETA–9042) with 

the American Job Center network 

branding initiative, (2) include 

additional citations to the appropriate 

regulations and guidance in the 

investigative data collection processing 

instructions page, and (3) provide 

clarifying language within the 

investigative data collection 

requirements. 

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 it is 

approved by the OMB under the PRA 

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 Control Number. See 5 

CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL 

obtains OMB approval for this 

information collection under Control 

Number 1205–0342. The current 

approval is scheduled to expire on 

January 31, 2013; however, it should be 

noted that existing information 

collection requirements submitted to the 

OMB receive a month-to-month 

extension while they undergo review. 

For additional information, see the 

related notice published in the Federal 

Register on September 6, 2012 (77 FR 

54929). 

Interested parties are encouraged to 

send comments to the OMB, Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs at

section within 30 days of publication of 

this notice in the Federal Register. In 

order to help ensure appropriate 

consideration, comments should 

mention OMB Control Number 1205– 

0342. The OMB is particularly 

interested in comments that: 

• Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

• Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

• Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

• Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses.

generally not required to respond to an 

information collection, unless it is

CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL

OMB after receiving a Notice of Action 

approving Control Number 1219–0054 

with the new burden. For additional

Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Unemployment Compensation for ExServicemembers Act (UCXA), 5 U.S.C. 

8521 et seq., provides unemployment 

insurance protection to former members 

of the Armed Forces. The UCXA 

requires a State Workforce Agency 

(SWA) to administer the Unemployment 

Compensation for Ex-Servicemembers 

(UCX) Program in accordance with the 

same terms and conditions of State 

unemployment insurance law that apply 

to unemployed claimants who have 

worked in the private sector. Each SWA 

must obtain certain military service 

information about a claimant filing for 

UCX benefits in order to make a benefiteligibility determination. A SWA may 

record or obtain required UCX 

information on Form ETA–843, Request 

for Military Document and Information. 

Use of this form may be essential to the 

UCX claims process. Optional-use Form 

ETA–841, Request for Determination of 

Federal Military Service and Wages, is 

also part of this information collection. 

Information pertaining to the UCX 

claimant can only be obtained from the 

individual’s military discharge papers, 

the appropriate branch of military 

service, or the Department of Veterans’ 

Affairs. Without a claimant’s military 

information, a SWA cannot adequately 

determine the eligibility of exservicemembers and would not be 

properly able to administer the program. 

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 it is 

approved by the OMB under the PRA 

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 Control Number. See 5 

CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL 

obtains OMB approval for this 

information collection under Control 

Number 1205–0176. The current 

approval is scheduled to expire on 

January 31, 2013; however, it should be 

noted that existing information 

collection requirements submitted to the 

OMB receive a month-to-month 

extension while they undergo review.
