ETA 9056 Nonmonetary Determination Quality Review

B.

Purpose
The ETA 9056 report provides quarterly information on the quality of nonmonetary
determinations that State agencies issue to claimants and employers in the report
period. Intrastate and Interstate single-claimant and multi-claimant separation and
nonseparation nonmonetary determinations are included in the report. Nonmonetary
determinations made by organizational units such as Benefits Accuracy Measurement
(BAM) and Benefit Payment Control (BPC) are also included in the report. Notices
of overpayments on uncontested earnings detected by any method (e.g., crossmatch)
are excluded from the report.

C.

Due Date and Transmittal
The report is due in the ETA National Office on the 20th of the second month
following the quarter to which the data relates. This report must be transmitted
electronically.

D.

General Reporting Instructions
Each State will select a sample (see Appendix A) of nonmonetary determinations
from the nonmonetary determinations time lapse universe for the preceding quarter.
The sample universe is based on the time lapse data reported on the ETA 9052 for
each month in the review quarter. Basic information or “skeleton” data that uniquely
identifies each determination selected must be entered via the State’s SUNsparc
machine into the UIRR data base by the 15th of the first month following the end of the
review quarter. Skeleton data will either be automatically loaded as part of the State’s
sample selection program or will be manually entered into the database. Once all
skeleton data is entered, the State will invoke a sample validation program to verify
that the determinations selected meet the parameters of a valid sample. If the
selected sample meets validation, each nonmonetary determination will then be
evaluated according to the instructions provided in ETA Handbook 301, Benefits
Timeliness and Quality (BTQ) Nonmonetary Determinations Review (revised January,
1999). After the quality evaluation is complete, the official results will be entered into
the database. The system will automatically compute the quality scores when all data
has been entered.

Checking the Report
The electronic reporting system will edit the data at three different stages: 1) If
possible, each element or field in the report is validated before data entry can
proceed to the next, 2) saving the report for each sampled case invokes the system's
Review-Edit program which compares each element against any conditions it is
required to meet including any arithmetic operations. The program will list any errors
or warnings generated. If possible, the user is advised to resolve "Errors" before
saving the data because 3) prior to transmitting the data, the system will run the same
Review-Edit program.
The transmission function will generate an exception report identifying the case and
the items that failed the edit(s). All cases failing the review edit must be corrected
by the report date to allow transmission to the National Office. All cases must pass
the review edit, otherwise, case transmission will not occur.
Detailed instructions on edit checks can be found in Handbook 402, Unemployment
Insurance Required Reports User’s Manual, Appendix C.
