[FR Doc. 06–7007 Filed 8–17–06; 8:45am] BILLING CODE 3710–08–M DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request Department of Education. The Secretary of Education requests comments on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) that the Secretary proposes to use for the 2007–2008 award year. The FAFSA is completed by students and their families and the information submitted on the form is used to determine the students’ eligibility and financial need for financial aid under the student financial assistance programs authorized under Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, (Title IV, HEA Programs). DATES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments on or before September 18, 2006. ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Attention: Rachel Potter, Desk Officer, Department of Education, Office of Management and Budget, 725 17th Street, NW., Room 10222, New Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503 or faxed to (202) 395–6974.

AGENCY: SUMMARY: Please note that the free Adobe Acrobat Reader software, version 4.0 or greater, is necessary to view this file. This software can be downloaded for free from Adobe’s Web site: https:// www.adobe.com. The Secretary is publishing this request for comment under the Provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. Under that Act, ED must obtain the review and approval of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) before it may use a form to jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Aug<31>2005 18:35 Aug 17, 2006 Jkt 208001 collect information. However, under procedure for obtaining approval from OMB, ED must first obtain public comment of the proposed form, and to obtain that comment, ED must publish this notice in the Federal Register. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Email address ICDocketMgr@ed.gov. Section 483 of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA) requires the Secretary, ‘‘in cooperation with agencies and organizations involved in providing student financial assistance,’’ to ‘‘produce, distribute and process free of charge a common financial reporting form to be used to determine the need and eligibility of a student for financial assistance * * *’’ under the Title IV, HEA Programs. This form is the FAFSA. In addition, Section 483 authorizes the Secretary to include non-financial data items that assist States in awarding State student financial assistance. On February 8, 2006, President Bush signed the Higher Education Reconciliation Act of 2005 (HERA), Pub. L. 109–171. The HERA made changes to the HEA that affect student eligibility and need analysis. The HERA changes impact the FAFSA in the following ways: (1) New questions are added for a student (and spouse) or a student and parents asking whether they received benefits from any of five means-tested Federal benefit programs in 2006. Receipt of meanstested Federal benefits during the preceding calendar year (2006 for the 2007–2008 award year) is an alternative to the current questions about whether the student or parent filed or was required to file an IRS 1040 Form as one of the criteria used to determine who qualifies for an automatic zero EFC or a simplified needs test. (2) A new dependency question is added to ensure that a member of the U.S. Armed Forces on active duty for other than training purposes is considered an independent student. (3) The question regarding a student’s convictions for drug-related offences has been modified. A student is ineligible for Title IV, HEA financial assistance only if the conviction for a Federal or State offence involving the possession or sale of a controlled substance is for conduct that occurred during the period of enrollment for which the student was receiving Title IV, HEA financial assistance. The ineligibility period is provided in the HEA. (4) New instructions have been added to clarify that Coverdell savings accounts, 529 college savings plans, and the refund value of 529 or State prepaid tuition plans should be reported as an asset of the account owner (unless the owner is a dependent student). (5) In addition, the FAFSA instructs PO 00000 Frm 00012 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 47783 applicants to exclude the value of a small business that the family owns and controls and that has 100 or fewer fulltime or full-time equivalent employees. The following data elements were deleted from the first FAFSA draft published June 6, 2006, because of space constraints on the paper form: Questions 27 and 28 regarding the student’s interest in student loans or work-study and questions 94–97 representing a fifth and sixth college choice. Question numbers refer to the 2006–2007 FAFSA. Many comments received during the 60-day public comment period indicated that financial aid administrators require information about a student’s interest in work-study or student loans to properly package and award Federal student aid. Therefore, the draft FAFSA has been revised to restore one question (number 26) allowing students to enter a code from the instructions and indicate their interest in work-study, student loans, both programs, or neither program. Additional revisions to the FAFSA draft are as follows: (1) The new dependency question number 54 that asks if the student is currently serving on active duty in the U.S. armed forces has been placed prior to question number 55 that asks if the student is a veteran, for a more logical flow. New instructions for responding to the active duty question have been added in the ‘‘Notes’’ section. (2) Questions about Federal benefits received by an independent student or spouse have been placed on page 4 as questions 92–96. A dependent student would report the receipt of Federal benefits in the parents’ section, questions 71–75, as a member of the parents’ household. (3) Instructions have been modified for reporting the receipt of benefits from Federal meanstested programs; for reporting investments; and for using tax returns with U.S. territories or freely associated states. The Secretary requests comments on these proposed changes to wording, as well as suggestions for ways to further simplify the application for students, parents, and schools. In particular, the Secretary is interested in comments regarding the best manner in which to construct a simplified form for applicants who qualify for an automatic zero or simplified needs test EFC calculation, including applicants who now qualify based on receipt of benefits from a Federal means-tested benefit program. In addition to comments requested above, to accommodate the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, the Secretary is E:\FR\FM\18AUN1.SGM 18AUN1
