Approved as submitted. The revised forms, however, are unneces- sarily complicated. The next time this collections or succes- sor(s) is submitted, forms 40076-CoC, 40076-2, and 40085-2 shall be revised so that: 1) form identification and page numbering are clear, so that respondents (that is, applicants) can readily determine whether their package is complete, as well as the order of pages within a form or series of forms; 2) separate packages of forms for new and renewal applicants are issued, rather than an overly complicated "mix and match" approach; and 3) the status of submitted information under the Privacy Act is indicated. OIRA staff will be glad to assist in this revision.
