Short Statement:
Revisions of the collection of information includes collecting the social security number on the redesigned ETA 652. The collection of the SSN allows OJC to conduct an applicants’ background check as a part of the program eligibility process. Currently, the Admission Counselor (AC) uses an online or electronic system to conduct the background check. Hard copy results are then attached to the ETA 655. Most of the data points from the ETA 655 have been merged into the redesigned ETA 652. Therefore, there is no need for the ETA 655. In the previous submission, it was estimated that it would take respondents 1 minute to complete the Form 655. ETA estimates that the time it takes to complete the information previously on the Form 655 is absorbed into the 10 minutes it takes to complete the Form 652. This leads to a corresponding burden reduction of 1,111 hours. The ETA 682 is being eliminated and replaced with a verbal question during admission whether a participant has childcare (as applicable). OJC has recently made a change to its policy and no longer requires applicants to provide childcare provider information. All applicants are asked if they have dependents. If the response is “yes,” then they’re asked if they have childcare. Applicants are no longer required to report the name and address of their childcare facility. As a result, there has been a decrease in burden per respondent to 15 seconds for all respondents, and 15 seconds for affected respondents. This has led to a decrease in overall burden by 23 hours. The number of estimated applicants is based on PY 2021 data, which is relatively unchanged from the currently approved collection at 66,630 vs 66,697. The $90,944 reported in the previous submission as a cost was a reporting error as that was actually the monetized value of the time burden.
