Title of Collection: FFEL/Direct Loan/ 

Perkins Military Service Deferment/ 

Post-Active Duty Student Deferment 

Request & SCRA Request. 

OMB Control Number: 1845–0080. 

Type of Review: a revision of an 

existing information collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: 

Individuals or Households. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 20,708. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 9,177. 

Abstract: The Military Service/PostActive Duty Student Deferment request 

form serves as the means by which a 

FFEL, Perkins, or Direct Loan borrower 

requests a military service deferment 

and/or post-active duty student 

deferment and provides his or her loan 

holder with the information needed to 

determine whether the borrower meets 

the applicable deferment eligibility 

requirements. The form also serves as 

the means by which the U.S. 

Department of Education identifies 

Direct Loan borrowers who qualify for 

the Direct Loan Program’s no accrual of 

interest benefit for active duty service 

members. 

The SCRA Request form services as 

one of the means by which a FFEL or 

Direct Loan borrower requests that his 

or her loan holder limit the interest rate 

on his or her FFEL or Direct Loan 

Program loans to 6% during the period 

of the borrower’s eligible military 

service. This is an optional form. 

Borrowers would continue to be able to 

simply request the limitation in writing.
