1 min read Synthesized & fact-checked by The General Plan

The U.S. Department of Education published a correction notice in the Federal Register on June 23, 2026, addressing an error in a previously published information collection request (ICR) notice. The original notice, bearing FR DOC# 2026-12318 and appearing at 91 FR 36813, was published on June 18, 2026, and opened a 30-day public comment period for an information collection entitled "Federal Direct Loan Program Regulations for Forbearance and Loan Rehabilitation."

The correction amends the Dates section of that original notice. The prior text stated that "the Department requested emergency processing from OMB for this ICR on June 26, 2026"; the corrected language reads that "the Department is requesting emergency processing and approval from OMB for this ICR no later than June 26, 2026."

The correction notice was issued by the PRA Coordinator, Office of the Chief Data Officer, Office of Planning, Evaluation and Policy Development, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
