    Title of Collection: Federal Student Aid (FSA) Feedback System.
    OMB Control Number: 1845-0141.
    Type of Review: An extension without change of a currently approved 
collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Individuals and Households.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 43,200.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 7,344.
    Abstract: This is a request for extension of the current 
information collection of the FSA Feedback System, OMB Control 1845-
0141. On March 10, 2015, the White House issued a Student Aid Bill of 
Rights. Among the objectives identified was the creation of a 
centralized complaint system that is now resident and supported via the 
Federal Student Aid/Customer Engagement Management System. The purpose 
of the Customer Engagement Management System (CEMS) is to meet the 
objective: ``Create a Responsive Student Feedback System: The Secretary 
of Education will create a new website by July 1, 2016, to give 
students and borrowers a simple and straightforward way to file 
complaints and provide feedback about federal student loan lenders, 
servicers, collections agencies, and institutions of higher education. 
Students and borrowers will be able to ensure that their complaints 
will be directed to the right party for timely resolution, and the 
Department of Education will be able to more quickly respond to issues 
and strengthen its efforts to protect the integrity of the student 
financial aid programs.''
