institution ensure such errors are not
found in future HMDA submissions? If
so, how should the Bureau decide when
correction and resubmission of the
HMDA LAR is necessary?
9. Should the Bureau’s HMDA review
procedures or guidelines address
circumstances in which HMDA data are
reported by several financial institutions
that have an affiliate and/or subsidiary
relationship with each other? If so, how?
10. Are any changes needed in how
the Bureau selects HMDA samples to
conduct HMDA data integrity reviews?
If so, what changes are needed and
why?
11. Are any other changes needed in
the manner in which the Bureau
conducts its HMDA data integrity
reviews? If so, what changes are needed
and why?
12. Are there any technological or
other changes that could be made to the
HMDA data collection system or to the
process by which it applies edits to
identify possible errors that could help
HMDA reporters reduce the frequency
of errors or otherwise promote data
integrity?
To the extent possible, please provide a
detailed explanation of any views
expressed. For example, if a commenter
suggests that an error threshold should
be changed or apply to only certain
HMDA data fields, the Bureau would be
interested to understand how the
commenter arrived at the suggestion.
The Bureau encourages commenters to
explain how any suggested changes to
the Resubmission Guidelines could
change HMDA compliance costs.
Furthermore, the Bureau is interested in
any comments regarding how changes to
the Resubmission Guidelines may affect
the reliability or usefulness of HMDA
data.
The Bureau anticipates that it will not
separately propose and solicit public
comment on any specific changes to its
Resubmission Guidelines before
finalizing and publishing the changes.

Abstract: The Integrated
Postsecondary Education Data System
(IPEDS) is a web-based data collection
system designed to collect basic data
from all postsecondary institutions in
the United States and the other
jurisdictions. IPEDS enables The
National Center of Education Statistics
(NCES) to report on key dimensions of
postsecondary education such as
enrollments, degrees and other awards
earned, tuition and fees, average net
price, student financial aid, graduation
rates, revenues and expenditures,
faculty salaries, and staff employed. The
IPEDS web-based data collection system
was implemented in 2000–01, and it
collects basic data from approximately
7,500 postsecondary institutions in the
United States and the other jurisdictions
that are eligible to participate in title IV
Federal financial aid programs. All title
IV institutions are required to respond
to IPEDS (section 490 of the Higher
Education Amendments of 1992; Public
Law 102–325). IPEDS allows other (nontitle IV) institutions to participate on a
voluntary basis. About 200 institutions
elect to respond. IPEDS data are
available to the public through the
College Navigator and IPEDS Web sites.
ED requested emergency clearance
processing (approved in November
2015; OMB# 1850–0582 v.17), due to
the Government Accounting Standards
Board’s (GASB) revision of their
reporting standards that also impacts
reporting of some of the institutions in
IPEDS, to revise the 2015–16 IPEDS
Finance forms and continue the
remaining parts of the 2015–16 IPEDS
collection as previously approved
(OMB# 1850–0582 v.13–15). As part of
the emergency clearance, new screening
question was added to the 2015–16
IPEDS Finance survey for institutions to
indicate whether they have additional
(or decreased) pension expense,
additional pension liability (or assets),
or additional deferral to report as a
result of GASB Statement 68. For the
institutions that answer ‘‘yes’’, four
fields have been added to collect the
amounts of the additional (or decreased)
expense, additional liability (or assets),
deferred inflows of resources, and
deferred outflows of resources. This
submission extends the public comment
period under regular approval process
(with a 60-day followed by a 30-day
public comment periods) on the
revisions approved under the
emergency clearance process (OMB#
1850–0582 v.17).
