Abstract:
AmeriCorps members who have earned a Segal Education Award may offer to transfer all or part of their education awards to certain family members (qualified recipients). Those qualified recipients may accept the transfer or not and may later rescind acceptance. Likewise, the AmeriCorps member may revoke the transfer. In order for AmeriCorps members and recipients to meet the legal requirements of the award transfer process, each of these actions requires the individual to complete a form: Request to Transfer a Segal Education Award Amount, Accept/Decline Award Transfer Form, Request to Revoke Transfer of Education Award Form, and Rescind Acceptance of Award Transfer Form. These processes are implemented electronically where possible, but paper forms are available if necessary. AmeriCorps seeks to renew the current information collection. The currently approved information collection is due to expire on
