resulting in Final Rule for the Public

Program that were published in the 

Federal Register on November 1, 2022 

(87 FR 65904) and continue to be

with these new regulations, the

redesigned to encourage the use of the

Title of Collection: Federal Direct 

Loan Program and Federal Family 

Education Loan Program Teacher Loan 

Forgiveness Forms. 

OMB Control Number: 1845–0059. 

Type of Review: An extension without 

change of a currently approved ICR. 

Respondents/Affected Public: 

Individuals and Households. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 8,700. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 2,871. 

Abstract: Sections 460 and 428J of the 

Higher Education Act of 1965, as 

amended (HEA) provide for teacher loan 

forgiveness in William D. Ford Federal 

Direct Loan (Direct Loan) Program and 

the Federal Family Education Loan 

(FFEL) Program. Borrowers who teach 

for five consecutive years at schools or 

educational service agencies serving 

low-income families and meet certain 

other requirements may receive up to 

$17,500 in loan forgiveness. The teacher 

loan forgiveness regulations at 34 CFR 

685.217 (for the Direct Loan Program) 

and 34 CFR 682.216 (for the FFEL 

Program) require borrowers to provide 

their loan holders with documentation 

establishing their eligibility for teacher 

loan forgiveness and for teacher loan 

forgiveness forbearance. The U.S. 

Department of Education (ED) is 

requesting an extension of the currently 

approved forms. To reflect regulatory 

changes made by a final rule published 

on November 1, 2022 (87 FR 65904), we 

have updated language related to the 

capitalization of unpaid interest that 

accrues during periods of forbearance. 

ED is otherwise making no substantive 

changes to the language in either of the 

two currently approved forms, and there 

are no changes to the data elements.
