# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, (Pub. L. 104-13, 44 U.S.C. chapter 35) as amended by the Clinger-Cohen Act (Pub. L. 104-106), OPM is soliciting comments for this collection. USA Staffing is OPM's talent acquisition solution. Federal agencies use USA Staffing to onboard candidates for Federal positions while complying with appropriate rules and procedures. Federal agencies purchase the services of USA Staffing through an Interagency Agreement (IAA) under the provisions of the Revolving Fund, 5 U.S.C. 1304 (e) (1), which permits OPM to perform human resources management services for Federal agencies on a cost-recovery basis.

                    USA Staffing's public facing web page for new hires provides a single interface to submit data and forms required during the Federal onboarding process. New Hires are individuals selected for Federal employment but who have not yet entered on duty and authenticate at USA Staffing using their                     *USAJOBS.gov*                     accounts. USA Staffing captures the essential information Federal agencies require to onboard applicants for Federal jobs under the authority of sections 1104, 1302, 3301-3320, 3361, 3393, and 3394 of Title 5 United States Code. This information includes questions related to selectee background, biographic, contact, employee benefits enrollment, employment history, and payroll information. Responses to these questions address required suitability and background investigation requirements, and also facilitate timely and efficient entry on duty. This revision proposes to renew a currently approved collection. Therefore, we invite comments that:                

1. 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;

2. 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;

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and

                    4. 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 submissions of responses.
