    Abstract: AmeriCorps members who have earned a Segal Education 
Award may offer to transfer all or part of their education awards to 
certain family members (qualified recipients). Those qualified 
recipients may accept the transfer or not and may later rescind 
acceptance. Likewise, the AmeriCorps member may revoke the transfer. In 
order for AmeriCorps members and recipients to meet the legal 
requirements of the award transfer process, each of these actions 
requires the individual to complete a form: Request to Transfer a Segal 
Education Award Amount, Accept/Decline Award Transfer Form, Request to 
Revoke Transfer of Education Award Form, and Rescind Acceptance of 
Award Transfer Form. These processes are implemented electronically 
where possible, but paper forms are available if necessary. AmeriCorps 
seeks to renew the current information collection. The currently 
approved information collection is due to expire on

    August 31, 2026.

Director, National Service Trust.
