an opportunity to comment on proposed, revised, and continuing

of its information collection requirements and minimize the public's 
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand the Department's 
information collection requirements and provide the requested data in 
the desired format. ED is soliciting comments on the proposed 
information collection request (ICR) that is described below. The 
Department of Education is especially interested in public comment 
addressing the following issues: (1) Is this collection necessary to 
the proper functions of the Department; (2) will this information be 
processed and used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden 
accurate; (4) how might the Department enhance the quality, utility, 
and clarity of the information to be collected; and (5) how might the 
Department minimize the burden of this collection on the respondents, 
including through the use of information technology. Please note that 
written comments received in response to this notice will be considered 
public records.
    Title of Collection: Migrant Student Information Exchange User 
Application Form.
    OMB Control Number: 1810-0686.
    Type of Review: An extension of an existing information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: State, Local, and Tribal Governments.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 420.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 210.
    Abstract: The Department requests to extend the collection of the 
existing MSIX User Application. State educational agencies (SEAs) with 
MEPs will collect the information from state and local education 
officials who desire access to the MSIX system. The collection 
instrument verifies the applicant's need for MSIX data and authorizes 
the user's access to that data. The burden hours associated with the 
data collection are required to meet the statutory mandate in Sec. 
1308(b) of Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), as amended by 
the Every Student Succeeds Act, which is to facilitate the electronic 
exchange by the SEAs of a set of minimum data elements to address the 
educational and related needs of migratory children.
