OMB approval is
given to not display the expiration date on the form associated

the Department of Education. This coordination is necessary to
determine whether there is duplication with an existing Department
of Education collection; determine whether this collection could be
streamlined and added to an existing collection for ease of use;
and determine whether Education has any use for the information,
and if so, discuss opportunities for data sharing.
