Abstract: This is a request for an extension of the information
collection for the form used to obtain information from federal student
loan borrowers who allege that the loans in their name were the result
of a forgery. This information is used by the Secretary to make a
determination of forgery for the Direct Loans, FFEL Program Loans, and
Federal Perkins Loans held by the Department. This information
collection stems from the common law legal principal of forgery, which
is not reflected in the Department's statute or regulations, but with
which the Department must comply.
