Abstract:
ETA 9000, an annual data collection instrument, has been ETA's sole data collection instrument for identifying continuing activities involving internal fraud and assessing fraud prevention effectiveness. The resulting analysis is communicated to the SWA's to enhance management efforts in controlling false representation and fraud. ETA is merging ETA 9000 into ETA 227, a quarterly data collection also concerned with identifying fraud. New data cells are also added to the revised ETA 227 that describe fraud identified through new tools (State and National Directories of New Hires) and break out fraud cases in the Federal-State Extended Benefits program which were previously combined in a single total. Once this submission is approved, the ETA 9000 will be discontinued, and OMB Control No. 1205-0173 (the previous version of ETA 227)will also be discontinued.

Short Statement:
The current burdens for the ETA 9000 and ETA 227, now merged into a single quarterly report, the newly consolidated ETA 227, have been computed at 1 hour for the ETA 9000 and 14 hours for the ETA 227. The estimate of burden for the new consolidated ETA 227 is equal to the burden it carried previously (14 hours per submission) plus an added one hour per submission to account for the data from what used to be the ETA 9000, for a total of 15 hours per submission. A one-time burden per state to adjust to new requirements not included in the ETA 9000 is estimated at 20 annual hours. The ETA 9000 is being discontinued, and the previous ETA 227 (OMB Control No. 1205-0178) will be discontinued once this submission is approved.
