Abstract:
Public Law 112-96, the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012, compels states to perform random audits of the work search requirements for all claimants in the Emergency Unemployment Compensation Program of 2008 (EUC08). Prior to passage of this law, there was no such requirement, necessitating both the random audits themselves, and collection of data documenting state audit activities and results. In addition to Public Law 112-96, collection for data necessary for oversight of the program is authorized under Section 303(a)(6) of the Social Security Act.
Emergency Justfication:
This provision of the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012, enacted March 2, 2012, requires that information in this information collection request be collected immediately or as soon as practicable.
