SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general

opportunity to comment on proposed,

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

Education is especially interested in

necessary to the proper functions of the 

Department; (2) will this information be 

processed and used in a timely manner;

Education Act of 1965, as amended, 

applies for discharge of his or her Direct 

Loan, FFEL, or Perkins loan program

Department of Education (the 

Department) to determine the 

individual’s eligibility for discharge 

based on total and permanent disability. 

The Total and Permanent Disability

individual who has received a total and 

permanent disability discharge provides 

the Department with information about 

his or her annual earnings from 

employment during the 3-year postdischarge monitoring period that begins 

on the date of discharge. The Total and 

Permanent Disability Discharge:

form serves as the means by which an 

applicant for a total and permanent 

disability discharge may (1) designate a 

representative to act on his or her behalf 

in connection with the applicant’s 

discharge request, (2) change a 

previously designated representative, or 

(3) revoke a previous designation of a 

representative.
