Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Changing Regulations

Short Statement: When we last cleared the i561 portion of this IC in November 2011, the burden was 60,904 hours. This change stemmed from a decrease in the number of minutes it takes to complete the i561 due to screen changes, which reduced and clarified the instructions. When we cleared the entire IC collection in August 2010, the burden was 341,064 hours. However, we are currently reporting a burden of 149,327 hours. This change stems from the decreased time due to the screen changes in November 2011 as well as the projected increase in the number of respondents who will complete the i561. In addition, we expect a decrease in the burden hours because claimant representatives who file a request for reconsideration and request direct fee payment on the matter will be required to use the i561, which takes less time to complete.
