burden of the proposed collection of
information; (3) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
the use of other forms of information
technology.
Authority: 38 CFR 21.4252(h).
Title: Advertising, Sales, Enrollment
Materials, and Candidate Handbooks.
OMB Control Number: 2900–0682.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Abstract: This notice is replacing the
previous 60-Day Notice, Vol. 86 No. 239
that was published on January 16, 2021.
A Correction Notice was published in
Vol. 87 No. 1 on January 3, 2022. The
statute prohibits approval of the
enrollment of a Veteran in a course if
the educational institution uses
advertising, sales, or enrollment
practices that are erroneous, deceptive,
or misleading either by actual statement,
omission, or intimation. The
advertising, sales and enrollment
materials are reviewed to determine if
the institution is in compliance with
guidelines for approval. VA received
two public comments which questions
the 15-minute length of burden time
needed to gather the information
required for VA review upon
compliance for this ICR. After careful
assessment, VA agrees with the
comments, and have therefore adjusted
the time burden from 15 minutes to 60
minutes accordingly, and as result have
updated the Supporting Statement to
reflect the change.
Affected Public: Individuals and
Households.
Estimated Annual Burden: 5,525
hours.
Estimated Average Burden per
Respondent: 60 minutes.
Frequency of Response: Annually.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
5,525.
By direction of the Secretary.

VA PRA Clearance Officer, Office of
Enterprise and Integration/Data Governance
