CORPORATION FOR NATIONAL AND
COMMUNITY SERVICE
AmeriCorps Online Payment System
Launched
Corporation for National and
Community Service.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Corporation for National
and Community Service is announcing
a new online payment system that will
allow Segal AmeriCorps Education
Award payment requests and other
benefits-related requests from
AmeriCorps members to be submitted
and processed online. The new system
eliminates the need to submit and
process paper forms, while increasing
the accuracy of the data and the speed
with which payments are made. The
new system became available for
institutions registration on August 16,
2006.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jerry
Yetter, National Service Trust,
Corporation for National and
Community Service, 1225 New York
Ave., Washington, DC 20004, tel: 202–
606–7547. Additional information can
also be found on the AmeriCorps Web
site, www.AmeriCorps.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
National Service Trust (Trust), an office
of the Corporation for National and
Community Service, administers Segal
AmeriCorps Education Awards on
behalf of AmeriCorps members. These
awards include the payment of interest
accrued on student loans during
members’ terms of service and the
payment of educational expenses or
outstanding qualified student loan
balances. The Trust is embarking on a
landmark project to improve the way it
does business with its members and
partner institutions by automating these
processes.
Beginning August 2006, AmeriCorps
members and partner institutions will
have access to the new online payment
system where they will be able to
submit and process Segal AmeriCorps
Education Award payments and other
requests completely online. AmeriCorps
members will be able to register for the
system as soon as they have been
enrolled in their AmeriCorps program.
Online registration by institutions
became available on August 16th, and
we encourage both financial and
education institutions to sign up as soon
as possible to be able to receive and
process payment requests online.
Registration for members will begin a
week after we open registration for
institutions. At that point, AmeriCorps
members will also be able to submit
jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES

requests and begin to experience the
benefits of the system. Registering for
the system will be a simple and secure
process, and once online, members and
institutions will immediately be able to
reap the benefits of the automated
online payment process. Here are just a
few of the highlights:
• Quicker turn-around of payments
Institutions will receive payments
much sooner than with the old paperbased process, reducing the turnaround
time from 30 days to seven or less
depending on when in a payment cycle
a request is processed.
• Reduces administrative burden
Certain information will be autopopulated and verified by the system,
thereby reducing the administrative
burden of completing requests and
rejections due to faulty or missing
information. Additionally, electronic
forms remove the problem of paper
forms that are illegible or damaged due
to irradiation.
• Eliminates need to scan and copy
documents
The AmeriCorps online system
creates an electronic record of the
former paper form, eliminating the need
to scan and copy documents for storage.
• Reduces mailing costs
The new system will eliminate the
time and cost of mailing documents and
paper forms.
• View up to date account
information
Account information and available
balances will be updated in real time
and can be viewed from your homepage.
Users can also track the status of
pending requests and payments online.
• Designed to be user friendly
The new system is simple and easy to
use. No training is necessary.
• Provides accessible help and
information features
Definitions of terminology and help
text explaining procedures are readily
available from multiple areas on the
site.
The Corporation for National and
Community Service expects the online
payment system to provide much faster,
more accurate, and cost-effective service
to our partner institutions and
AmeriCorps members and alumni.
Please visit www.AmeriCorps.gov for the
latest updates as this new system is
implemented.
