SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Education (ED), in
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general public and Federal agencies with
an opportunity to comment on proposed, revised, and continuing
collections of information. This helps the Department assess the impact
of its information collection requirements and minimize the public's
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand the Department's
information collection requirements and provide the requested data in
the desired format. ED is soliciting comments on the proposed
information collection request (ICR) that is described below. The
Department of Education is especially interested in public comment
addressing the following issues: (1) is this collection necessary to
the proper functions of the Department; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden
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
public records.
Title of Collection: Loan Cancellation in the Federal Perkins Loan
Program.
OMB Control Number: 1845-0100.
Type of Review: Extension without change of a currently approved
collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: Private Sector; Individuals or
Households; State, Local, and Tribal Governments.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 116,872.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 43,832.
Abstract: This is a request for an extension of the current OMB
approval for the recordkeeping requirements contained in 34 CFR 674.53,
674.56, 674.57, 674.58 and 674.59. The information collections in these
regulations are necessary to determine Federal Perkins Loan (Perkins
Loan) Program borrower's eligibility to receive program benefits and to
prevent fraud and abuse of program funds. There has been no change to
the regulatory requirements. Due to the effects of the COVID-19
pandemic and the suspension of the collection of loans, the Department
lacks sufficient data to allow for more accurate updates to the usage
of the regulations.
