Corporation for National and Community Service October 25, 2012 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS), as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a pre-clearance consultation program to provide the general public and federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program helps to ensure that requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection requirement on respondents can be properly assessed. Currently, CNCS is soliciting comments concerning its proposed revision of the CNCS Forbearance Request for National Service Form to update the burden hour information. This form is used by AmeriCorps members to request forbearances based on their AmeriCorps service, by schools and lenders to verify their eligibility, and by both parties to satisfy certain legal requirements. Copies of the information collection request can be obtained by contacting the office listed in the addresses section of this notice.
