    Title of Collection: Enrollment, Exit, and Member Application Form.

    Abstract: This collection of information includes AmeriCorps' 
member application, enrollment, and exit forms. The application form is 
used by applicants interested in serving as AmeriCorps members. The 
enrollment form is used by AmeriCorps members to enroll in the National 
Service Trust to earn Eli Segal Education Awards. The exit form is used 
to document the completion of a member's term of service with 
AmeriCorps. AmeriCorps seeks to revise the exit form to add options for 
granting AmeriCorps permission to share the outgoing member's name and 
email address with other Federal partners to help the outgoing member 
stay engaged in service. AmeriCorps also seeks to continue using the 
currently approved information collection until the revised information 
collection is approved by OMB. The currently approved information 
collection is due to expire on April 30, 2025.
    Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized 
and/or included in the request for OMB approval. Comments are invited

proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether 
the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 
agency's estimate of the burden of the collection of information; (c) 
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on respondents, including through the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and (e) 
estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation, 
maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information. Burden 
means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by 
persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide information 
to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review 
instructions; to develop, acquire, install and utilize technology and 
systems for the purpose of collecting, validating and verifying
