processed and used in a timely manner;
(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;

the quality, utility, and clarity of the

Title of Collection: PLUS Adverse
Credit Reconsideration Loan
Counseling.
OMB Control Number: 1845–0129.
Type of Review: A revision of an
existing information collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Individual or Households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 475,974.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 356,982.
Abstract: Section 428B(a)(1)(A) of the
Higher Education Act of 1965, as
amended (HEA), provides that to be
eligible to receive a Federal PLUS Loan
under the Federal Family Education
Loan (FFEL) Program, the applicant
must not have an adverse credit history,
as determined pursuant to regulations
promulgated by the Secretary. In
accordance with section 455(a)(1) of the
HEA, this same eligibility requirement
applies to applicants for PLUS loans
under the Direct Loan Program. Since
July 1, 2010 the Direct Loan Program is
the only Federal loan program that
offers Federal PLUS Loans. The adverse
credit history section of the eligibility
regulations in 34 CFR 685.200 (b) and
(c) specify an applicant for a PLUS loan
who is determined to have an adverse
credit history must complete loan
counseling offered by the Secretary
before receiving the Federal PLUS loan.
The Department is requesting an
extension to the information collection
regarding the adverse credit history
regulations in 34 CFR 685.200 (b) and
(c) and the burden these changes create
for Federal PLUS loan borrowers, both
parent and graduate/professional
students.
