(a) Within 180 days from the effective date of this regulation each State agency shall:

1. (1) review and inventory its existing application forms that are intended to be commonly used by the general public;
2. (2) determine which of these application forms, if any, have already been made available to the general public on the internet and which have not; and
3. (3) establish a priority list for making available to the general public on the internet those application forms that have not previously been made so available.

(b) With respect to those application forms that the inventory shows have not been made available to the general public on the internet, each State agency shall prioritize the order and estimated timeframe in which such application forms will be made available on the internet. In establishing a priority list for making application forms available on the internet, the State agency may consider, among other things:

1. (1) the annual demand for a particular application form among the general public;
2. (2) the intended scope of the distribution of a particular application form; and
3. (3) whether a particular application form is readily convertible to internet form. In assessing whether an application form is "readily convertible to internet form," the State agency may consider, among other things, the characteristics of an application form, including, but not limited to, graphic content, security features, and other technical issues, including the need to comply with laws, policies, and procedures in regard to the accessibility of internet information and applications, that may make conversion to internet form more difficult.
