Short Statement: The two forms, FSA-2198, Claimants With Closed Settlement Claims With No Appeal Hearing in Suspension and FSA-2199, Claimants With Closed Settlement Claims With Appeal Hearing in Suspension are new in this request. Additionally, some borrowers may respond to either of the new forms and indicate that they elect to restart the loan servicing process. This required an upward adjustment to the projected hours for several direct loan servicing forms in order to account for the burden associated with the completion of these forms. Therefore, this is a program changes so the total burden hours for FLP were increased by 78 for 15,832 total burden hours in this request. The number of respondents was increased by 167 and the total annual responses were increased by 225. In this request, the number of respondents is 14,929 while the total annual responses are 27,905. The total annual burden hours were 15,754 in the previously approved request.
