Comments

    A 60-day Notice requesting public comment was published in the 
Federal Register on Wednesday, November 16, 2022 at Vol. 87 FR 68684. 
This comment period ended January 16, 2023. No public comments were 
received from this Notice.
    Title of Collection: National Service Trust AmeriCorps Interest 
Payment Request form.
    OMB Control Number: 3045-0053. Type of Review: Renewal.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Individuals using a Segal AmeriCorps 
Education Award, and authorized school officials and qualified student 
loan holders.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 320.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 27.
    Abstract: After an AmeriCorps member completes a period of national 
and community service, the individual receives an education award that 
can be used to pay against qualified student loans or pay for current 
post-secondary educational expenses. AmeriCorps members use the 
AmeriCorps Interest Payment Request Form to request a payment of 
accrued interest on qualified student loans and to authorize the 
release of loan information to the National Service Trust; schools and 
lenders verify eligibility for the payments; and both parties verify 
certain legal requirements. This information collection is not required 
to be considered for obtaining grant funding support. AmeriCorps seeks 
to renew the current information collection; it will be used in the 
same manner as the existing application. AmeriCorps also seeks to 
continue using the current application until the revised application is 
approved by OMB. The current application is due to expire on January 
31, 2023.

Jerry Prentice,
Director, National Service Trust.
