accurate; (4) how might the Department enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be collected; and (5) how might the
Department minimize the burden of this collection on the respondents,
including through the use of information technology. Please note that
written comments received in response to this notice will be considered

collection.

Abstract: The Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA),
established the Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program under
Title IV, Part B. Section 493C [20 U.S.C. 1098e] of the HEA authorizes
income based repayment for Part B borrowers who have a partial
financial hardship. The regulations in 34 CFR 682.215(e)(2) require
notifications to borrowers from the loan holders once a borrower
establishes a partial financial hardship and is placed in an income
based repayment (IBR) plan by the loan holder. The regulations identify
information the loan holder must provide to the borrower to continue to
participate in an IBR plan. This is a request for extension without
change of the current information collection 1845-0114.
