    DOC has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for 
clearance the following proposal for collection of information under 
the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35).
    Agency: Bureau of the Census.
    Title: March 12 Employment From IRS Form 941E.
    Form Number(s): IRS Form 941E.
    Agency Approval Number: 0607-0203.

    Burden: 5,000 hours.
    Number of Respondents: 50,000.

payers of supplemental unemployment benefits, certain churches and 
church-controlled organizations, and certain payers of annuities and 
sick pay. These employers prepare and submit a Form 941E, quarterly, to 
the IRS. The Census Bureau sponsors and uses responses to Question 1 on 
the Form to update the Standard Statistical Establishment List (SSEL). 
The SSEL, as a universal sampling frame of U.S. business activity, 
requires employment data from all sectors of the economy. Question 1 
reads as follows, ``Complete for First Quarter Only Number of employees 
(except household) employed in the pay period that includes March 
12th.''
    Affected Public: State and local governments, Businesses or other 
for-profit organizations, Small businesses or organizations.
