    Title of Collection: Teacher Cancellation Low Income Directory.
    OMB Control Number: 1845-0077.
    Type of Review: Reinstatement without change of a previously

    Abstract: The Department of Education (the Department) is 
requesting OMB approval for a reinstatement without change to 1845-0077 
Teacher Cancellation Low Income Directory.
    The Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, (HEA) allows for up 
to a one hundred percent cancellation of a Federal Perkins Loan and 
loan forgiveness of a Federal Family Education Loan and Direct Loan 
program loan if the graduate teaches full-time in an elementary or 
secondary school serving low-income students.
    The data collected for the development of the Teacher Cancellation 
Low Income Directory provides web-based access to a list of all 
elementary and secondary schools, and educational service agencies that 
serve a total enrollment of more than 30 percent low income students 
(as defined under Title I, Part A of the Elementary and Secondary 
Education Act of 1965, as amended). The Directory allows post-secondary 
institutions to determine whether or not a teacher, who received a 
Federal Perkins Loan, Direct Loan, or Federal Family Education Loan at 
their school, is eligible to receive loan cancellation or forgiveness 
or that a teacher who received a TEACH Grant is meeting the service 
obligation. This revision request updates the collection with an 
optional school type data element.

Ross Santy,
Chief Data Officer, Office of Planning, Evaluation and Policy 
Development.
