    Abstract: The National Service Trust AmeriCorps Voucher and Payment 
Request Form is used to make payments to repay qualified student loans 
and to pay for the cost of attending eligible post-secondary 
educational institutions and approved School-to-Work programs. Prior to 
making the payments, AmeriCorps will review information from the forms 
and compare it to information taken from the AmeriCorsp members' 
education award account(s) to ensure that the payments meet the 
requirements of the law. 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.
