Abstract:
The DOL Veterans' Employment and Training Service (VETS) administers funds for the multi-year Jobs for Veterans' State Grants (JVSG) to each State, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Guam on an annual basis on a fiscal year cycle. These forms are used to facilitate the identification of required programmatic and financial data provided by States requesting and expending funds and for monitoring the grants, making quarterly adjustments and reporting results to Congress. The use of program-specific standard formats helps to ensure that requested data can be provided in a uniform way, reporting burdens are minimized, the impact of collection requirements on respondents are properly assessed, collection instruments are clearly understood by respondents, and the information is easily consolidated for posting in accordance with statutory requirements.

Short Statement:
The total burden hours for this ICR decreased from 17,401 to 17,053 since the last approval due to the deletion of VETS 201, and the addition of VETS 403. These changes improve the quality of data reported and enhance the ability for respondents to provide information that is clear and more accurately reflects the services and outcomes achieved by Chapter 31 participants being served through coordinated efforts between the VETS, the VA, and each State Agency.
