SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA of 1995, Federal agencies must
obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for each

comment is being made pursuant to Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA.
With respect to the following collection of information, VBA
invites comments on: (1) Whether the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance of VBA's functions, including
whether the information will have practical utility; (2) the accuracy
of VBA's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of
information; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of
the information to be collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of
the collection of information on respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or the use of other forms of
information technology.
Authority: 38 CFR 21.4252(h).
Title: Advertising, Sales, Enrollment Materials, and Candidate
Handbooks.
OMB Control Number: 2900-0682.
Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
Abstract: This notice is replacing the previous 60-Day Notice, Vol.
86 No. 239 that was published on January 16, 2021. A Correction Notice
was published in Vol. 87 No. 1 on January 3, 2022. The statute
prohibits approval of the enrollment of a Veteran in a course if the
educational institution uses advertising, sales, or enrollment
practices that are erroneous, deceptive, or misleading either by actual
statement, omission, or intimation. The advertising, sales and
enrollment materials are reviewed to determine if the institution is in
compliance with guidelines for approval. VA received two public
comments which questions the 15-minute length of burden time needed to
gather the information required for VA review upon compliance for this
ICR. After careful assessment, VA agrees with the comments, and have
therefore adjusted the time burden from 15 minutes to 60 minutes
accordingly, and as result have updated the Supporting Statement to
reflect the change.
Affected Public: Individuals and Households.
Estimated Annual Burden: 5,525 hours.
Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 60 minutes.
Frequency of Response: Annually.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 5,525.
By direction of the Secretary.
Maribel Aponte,
VA PRA Clearance Officer, Office of Enterprise and Integration/Data
Governance Analytics, Department of Veterans Affairs.
