Title of Collection: Student Assistance General Provision Subpart I
Immigration Status Confirmation.
OMB Control Number: 1845-0052.
Type of Review: An extension without change of a currently approved
ICR.
Respondents/Affected Public: Private sector; State, local, and
Tribal governments; individuals and households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 118,360.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 14,794.
Abstract: This request is for approval of an extension of the
reporting requirements currently in the Student Assistance General
Provisions, 34 CFR 668, subpart I. This subpart governs the
Immigration-Status Confirmation, as authorized by section 484(g) of the
Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA) (20 U.S.C. 1091). The
regulations may be reviewed at 34 CFR 668, subpart I. The regulations
are necessary to determine eligibility to receive program benefits and
to prevent fraud and abuse of program funds. This collection updates
the usage by individuals and schools. While the regulations refer to a
secondary confirmation process and completion of the paper G-845 form
these processes are no longer in use. The Department of Homeland
Security/U.S. Citizen and Immigration Services (DHS/USCIS) replaced the
paper secondary confirmation method with a fully electronic process,
Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) system and the
use of the Third Step Verification Process.
