SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Employee Retirement Income Security Act 
of 1974 (ERISA) contains three separate sets of provisions--in Title I 
(Labor provisions), Title II (Internal Revenue Code provisions), and 
Title IV (PBGC provisions)--requiring administrators of employee 
pension and welfare benefit plans (collectively referred to as employee 
benefit plans) to file returns or reports annually with the federal 
government.
    PBGC, the Department of Labor (DOL), and the Internal Revenue 
Service (IRS) work together to produce the Form 5500 Annual Return/
Report for Employee Benefit Plan and Form 5500-SF Short Form Annual 
Return/Report for Small Employee Benefit Plan (Form 5500 Series), 
through which the regulated public can satisfy the combined reporting/
filing requirements applicable to employee benefit plans.
    The collection of information has been approved by OMB under 
control number 1212-0057 through July 31, 2017. PBGC is requesting that 
OMB extend its approval for another three years without change. An 
agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to 
respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently 
valid OMB control number.
    On May 1, 2017 (82 FR 20396), PBGC published a notice informing the 
public that it intended to request OMB approval and soliciting public 
comment. Only one comment was received and it supported the information 
collection.
    Estimates are that PBGC will receive approximately 23,700 filings 
per year under this collection of information. PBGC further estimates 
that the total annual burden of this collection of information will be 
1,200 hours and $1,655,000.

    Issued in Washington, DC.
Deborah Chase Murphy,
Assistant General Counsel for Regulatory Affairs, Pension Benefit 
Guaranty Corporation.
