Title of Collection: Federal Student 

Loan Program Deferment Request 

Forms. 

OMB Control Number: 1845–0011. 

Type of Review: A revision of a 

currently approved ICR. 

Respondents/Affected Public: 

Individuals and Households. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 704,903. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 112,819. 

Abstract: These forms serve as the 

means by which borrowers in the 

William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan 

(Direct Loan), Federal Family Education 

Loan (FFEL) and the Federal Perkins 

Loan (Perkins Loan) Programs may 

request deferment of repayment on their 

loans if they meet certain statutory and 

regulatory criteria. The U.S. Department 

of Education and other loan holders 

uses the information collected on these 

forms to determine whether a borrower 

meets the eligibility requirements for 

the specific deferment type being 

submitted. For greater simplicity and to 

make it easier to maintain consistency 

among the various forbearance forms, 

the Department is consolidating all the 

current forbearance forms into a single 

collection under OMB No. 1845–0011. 

This collection is merging the six 

currently approved deferment forms in 

1845–0011 with the military deferment 

form currently approved under 1845– 

0080 and the cancer treatment 

deferment form currently approved 

under 1845–0154. 

The Department is requesting a 

revision of the currently approved 

deferment forms. The proposed changes 

include the following: 

Streamlining the forms by eliminating 

duplicative and obsolete information; 

reordering items to present information 

in a more logical order that is consistent 

between forms; using ‘‘plain language’’
