(44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the

Department is soliciting comments on 

the proposed information collection 

request (ICR) that is described below. 

The Department is especially interested 

in public comment addressing the 

following issues: (1) is this collection 

necessary to the proper functions of the 

Department; (2) will this information be 

processed and used in a timely manner; 

(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;

Title of Collection: Student Assistance 

General Provision Subpart I Immigration 

Status Confirmation. 

OMB Control Number: 1845–0052. 

Type of Review: Extension without 

change of a currently approved ICR. 

Respondents/Affected Public: Private 

Sector; State, Local, and Tribal 

Governments; Individuals or 

Households. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 118,360. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 14,794. 

Abstract: This request is for approval 

of an extension of the reporting 

requirements currently in the Student 

Assistance General Provisions, 34 CFR 

part 668, subpart I. This subpart governs 

the Immigration-Status Confirmation, as 

authorized by section 484(g) of the 

Higher Education Act of 1965, as 

amended (HEA) (20 U.S.C. 1091). The 

regulations may be reviewed at 34 CFR 

part 668, subpart I. The regulations are 

necessary to determine eligibility to 

receive program benefits and to prevent 

fraud and abuse of program funds. This 

collection updates the usage by 

individuals and schools. While the 

regulations refer to a secondary 

confirmation process and completion of 

the paper G–845 form these processes 

are no longer in use. The Department of 

Homeland Security/U.S. Citizen and 

Immigration Services (DHS/USCIS) 

replaced the paper secondary 

confirmation method with a fully 

electronic process, Systematic Alien 

Verification for Entitlements (SAVE) 

system and the use of the Third Step 

Verification Process.
