Workforce Recruitment Program

Key Information

Abstract

The Workforce Recruitment Program (WRP) is a recruitment program that connects students with disabilities to an opportunity for employment. Through participating colleges and universities, WRP creates a talent pool for Federal and interested private-sector employers nationwide to find college students and recent graduates with disabilities, including veterans, who are eager to demonstrate their abilities in the workplace through internships or permanent jobs. Candidates are not placed into jobs; they are simply applying to be part of a resume talent database of postsecondary students and recent graduates with disabilities that is made available to Federal employers directly and to the private sector through a contractor. Employers will then reach out to candidates directly if they are interested in interviewing or hiring them for a specific position. Candidates also have the opportunity to participate in program career development activities and receive communication about hiring fairs and other federal opportunities shared with the WRP.

Protection and Advocacy for Beneficiaries of Social Security (PABSS)

Key Information

Abstract

The PABSS projects are part of Social Security’s strategy to increase the number of Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or SSI recipients who return to work and achieve financial independence and self-sufficiency as the result of receiving support, representation, advocacy, or other services. PABSS provides: (1) Information and advice about obtaining vocational rehabilitation and employment services; and (2) advocacy or other services a beneficiary with a disability may need to secure, maintain, or regain gainful employment. The PABSS Annual Program Performance Report collects statistical information from each of the PABSS projects in an effort to manage and capture program performance and quantitative data. Social Security uses the information to evaluate the efficiency of the program, and to ensure beneficiaries are receiving quality services. The project data is valuable to Social Security in its analysis of and future planning for the SSDI and SSI programs. The respondents are the 57 PABSS project sites, and recipients of SSDI and SSI programs.

Technical Updates to Applicability of the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) Reduced Benefit Rate for Individuals Residing in Medical Treatment Facilities. 20 CFR 416.708(k)

Key Information

Abstract

SSA uses this information collection to determine SSI eligibility or the benefit amount for SSI recipients who enter or leave institutions. SSA personnel collect this information directly from SSI recipients, or from someone reporting on their behalf. An SSI recipient who enters an institution may be unable to report; therefore, a family member sometimes makes this report on behalf of the recipient. When contacting SSA, the recipient or family member of the recipient provides the name of the institution; the date of admission; and the expected date of discharge. The respondents are SSI recipients who enter or leave an institution.

Notification of Substantial Risk of Injury to Health and the Environment under TSCA Section 8(e) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) section 8(e) states, any person who manufactures, [imports,] processes, or distributes in commerce a chemical substance or mixture and who obtains information which reasonably supports the conclusion that such substance or mixture presents a substantial risk of injury to health or the environment shall immediately inform the [EPA] Administrator of such information unless such person has actual knowledge that the Administrator has been adequately informed of such information. (15 U.S.C. 2607(e); see Ref.1.) EPA receives and screens TSCA section 8(e) submissions including a wide range of chemical toxicity/exposure information on numerous chemical substances and mixtures. Although EPAs receipt of TSCA section 8(e) information does not necessarily trigger immediate regulatory action under TSCA or other authorities administered by EPA, all TSCA section 8(e) submissions receive screening level evaluations by EPAs Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT) to identify priorities for further Agency action and appropriate referrals to other programs. EPA offers an electronic reporting option for those required to submit a notification of substantial risk under TSCA section 8(e) and those who wish to voluntarily submit For Your Information (FYI) notices by registering and submitting information electronically using the Agency's Central Data Exchange (CDX). TSCA section 8(e) data on newly discovered chemical hazards/risks are available via EPAs ChemView website (https://chemview.epa.gov/chemview).

International Direct Deposit

Key Information

Abstract

International Direct Deposit (IDD) Program allows beneficiaries living abroad to receive their payments via direct deposit to an account at a financial institution outside the United States. SSA uses Form SSA–1199-(Country) to enroll Title II beneficiaries residing abroad in IDD, and to obtain the direct deposit information for foreign accounts. Routing account number information varies slightly for each foreign country, so we use a variation of the Treasury Department’s Form SF–1199A for each country. The respondents are Social Security beneficiaries residing abroad who want SSA to deposit their Title II benefit payments directly to a foreign financial institution.

Medical Report with Allegation of Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) Infection--Adult and Child

Key Information

Abstract

SSA uses Forms SSA-4814 and SSA-4815 to collect the information necessary to determine if an individual with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, who is applying for SSI disability payments, meets the requirements for PD. SSA mails the appropriate paper form to the claimant's medical source to complete and return to SSA. Respondents can complete this collection via the paper forms or telephone interview. When respondents complete these forms via telephone interview, which per our Management Information data, is most often, FO or DDS personnel enter the information from the respondents directly into the form, and document the medical source’s name, title, and date in the signature block. We then fax the form into the electronic case file. If SSA FO staff is unable to make a PD finding based on the information the applicant’s medical source provides, the DDS agency makes a determination at their discretion. The respondents are the medical sources of the applicants for SSI disability payments. We are updating all the fields where we request date on Form SSA-4814 and SSA-4815. We are adding an arrow on the side where the respondent can pull up a calendar and select the date (the respondent can still type in the date in any format they choose). We are also revising the date format from December 2, 2015 to 12/2/2015.

Request for Contractor Access to TSCA Confidential Business Information (CBI) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) procures contract support to facilitate the performance of certain duties. EPA may require contractors to handle Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Confidential Business Information (CBI). Each contractor employee who will use TSCA CBI in the performance of his or her duties must be authorized for access to TSCA CBI through a multi-step process. The TSCA CBI Protection Manual (EPA Publication 7700 A2, revised October 2003; see Ref. 2) provides Federal and contractor employees with guidelines and operating procedures for handling TSCA CBI while performing their official duties, as well as the procedures to obtain authorization for access to TSCA CBI. Specifically, for purposes of this information collection, contractor personnel must submit to EPA the EPA form titled TSCA CBI Access Request, Agreement, and Approval (EPA Form 7740-6; Attachment 1). The Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT), uses EPA Form 7740-6 to collect information about contractor personnel so that the Agency can evaluate their suitability for access to TSCA CBI. EPA stores the information on the OPPT Chemical Information System (CIS).

Drawback Process Regulations and Entry Collection Documents

Key Information

Abstract

The collections of information related to the drawback process are required as per 19 CFR part 190 (Modernized Drawback), which provides for refunds of duties, taxes, and fees for certain merchandise that is imported into the United States where there is a subsequent related exportation or destruction. All claims for drawback, sometimes referred to as TFTEA-Drawback, must be filed electronically in the Automated Commercial Environment (ACE), in accordance with the Trade Facilitation Trade Enforcement Act of 2015 (TFTEA) (Pub. L. 114–125, 130 Stat. 122), and in compliance with the regulations in part 190, 181 (NAFTA Drawback) and 182 (USMCA Drawback).  Specific information on completing a claim is available in the drawback CBP and Trade Automated Interface Requirement (CATAIR) document at: https://www.cbp.gov/document/guidance/ace-drawback-catair-guidelines. CBP Form 7553, Notice of Intent to Export, Destroy or Return Merchandise for Purposes of Drawback (NOI), documents both the exportation and destruction of merchandise eligible for drawback. The NOI is the official notification to CBP that an exportation or destruction will occur for drawback eligible merchandise. The CBP Form 7553 has been updated to comply with TFTEA-Drawback requirements and is accessible at http://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/publications/forms. Relevant Regulations and Statutes: Title 19, part 190 - https://ecfr.io/Title-19/Part-190 19 USC 1313 - https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/USCODE-2011-title19/pdf/USCODE-2011-title19-chap4-subtitleII-partI-sec1313.pdf 19 USC 1313 authorizes the information collected on the CBP form 7553 as well as in the ACE system for the electronic drawback claim. The New Data Elements in ACE for Drawback include the following: 1. Substituted Value per Unit 2. Entry Summary Line Item Number 3. Bill of Materials/Formula 4. Certificate of Delivery/Drawback Eligibility Indicator 5. Import Tracing Identification Number (ITIN) 6. Manufacture Tracing Identification Number (MTIN) 7. Certification for Valuation of Destroyed Merchandise 8. Substituted Unused Wine Certification 9. Certification of Eligibility for AP and/or WPN Privilege(s) 10. Identification of Accounting Methodology 11. Indicator for Notice of Intent to Export or Destroy 12. Indicator for Waiver of Drawback Claim Rights New data elements added to the CBP Form 7553: 1. Continuation sheet(#15-19) 2. Line item number added (#15) 3. Rejected merchandise box added (#20) 4. Instructions were edited to comply with TFTEA-Drawback requirements This collection of information applies to the individuals and companies in the trade community who are and are not familiar with drawback, importing and exporting procedures, and with the CBP regulations. Please note that CBP Forms 7551 and 7552 are both abolished. From February 24, 2019, onward, TFTEA-Drawback, as provided for in part 190, is the only legal framework for filing drawback claims. No new drawback claims may be filed under the paper-based processes previously provided for in part 191 (Drawback). Sections 190.51, 190.52, and 190.53 provide the requirements to submit a drawback claim electronically. The provisions of part 190 are similar to the provisions in part 191, except where necessary to outline all the data elements for a complete claim (previously contained in CBP form 7551) and modify those requirements to comply with TFTEA-Drawback. CBP form 7552, Certificates of Delivery and Certificates of Manufacturing & Delivery will no longer be requested or accepted to demonstrate the transfer of merchandise. Sections 190.10 and 190.24 require that any transfers of merchandise must be evidenced by business records, as defined in section 190.2.
