SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Federal 

law requires that interest payments on 

cash deposited to secure immigration 

bonds shall be ‘‘at a rate determined by 

the Secretary of the Treasury, except 

that in no case shall the interest rate 

exceed 3 per centum per annum.’’ 8 

U.S.C. 1363(a). Related Federal 

regulations state that ‘‘Interest on cash 

deposited to secure immigration bonds 

will be at the rate as determined by the 

Secretary of the Treasury, but in no case 

will exceed 3 per centum per annum or 

be less than zero.’’ 8 CFR 293.2. 

Treasury has determined that interest on 

the bonds will vary quarterly and will 

accrue during each calendar quarter at 

a rate equal to the lesser of the average 

of the bond equivalent rates on 91-day 

Treasury bills auctioned during the 

preceding calendar quarter, or 3 per 

centum per annum, but in no case less 

than zero. [FR Doc. 2015–18545]. In 

addition to this Notice, Treasury posts 

the current quarterly rate in Table 2b— 

Interest Rates for Specific Legislation on 

the TreasuryDirect website.

Public Finance, Gary Grippo, having

AGENCY: Veterans Benefits 

Administration, Department of Veterans 

Affairs. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: In compliance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 

1995, this notice announces that the 

Veterans Benefits Administration 

(VBA), Department of Veterans Affairs, 

will submit the collection of 

information abstracted below to the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) for review and comment. The 

PRA submission describes the nature of 

the information collection and its 

expected cost and burden and it 

includes the actual data collection 

instrument. 

DATES: Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent 

within 30 days of publication of this 

notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/ 

PRAMain. Find this particular 

information collection by selecting

for Public Comments’’ or by using the

Washington, DC 20006, (202) 266–4688 

or email maribel.aponte@va.gov. Please

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Authority: 38 U.S.C. 108. 

Title: Statement of Disappearance (VA 

Form 21P–1775). 

OMB Control Number: 2900–0036. 

Type of Review: Extension currently 

approved collection. 

Abstract: The major use of the form is 

used to gather the necessary information 

to determine if a decision of 

presumptive death can be made for 

benefit payment purposes. 38 U.S.C. 108 

requires a formal ‘‘presumption of 

death’’ when a veteran has been missing 

for seven years. It would be impossible 

to administer the survivor benefits 

program without this collection of 

information. This is an extension only, 

no substantive changes. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to a collection of information 

unless it displays a currently valid OMB 

control number. The Federal Register 

Notice with a 60-day comment period 

soliciting comments on this collection 

of information was published at 87 FR 

87 on May 5, 2022, page 26804. 

Affected Public: Individuals and 

households. 

Estimated Annual Burden: 28 hours. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Respondent: 2.75 hours. 

Frequency of Response: Once. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

10. 

By direction of the Secretary.

VA PRA Clearance Officer, Office of 

Enterprise and Integration, Data Governance
