In the previous clearance of the 1890-0017 collection (now 1894-0007) in 2004, the U.S. Department of Education (ED) cleared the Application for Federal Education Assistance or ED 424 under this collection number. Since that time, ED has discontinued use of the ED 424 Form and has begun using the SF-424, Application for Federal Assistance, together with the U.S. Department of Education Supplemental Information for SF-424 form. ED made a policy decision to switch to the SF-424 in keeping with Federal-wide forms standardization and streamlining efforts, especially with widespread agency use of Grants.gov. There were several data elements/questions on the ED 424 that were required for ED applicants that were not included on the SF-424. Therefore, ED put these questions that were already cleared as part of the 1890-0017 collection (now 1894-0007) on a form entitled the, U.S. Department of Education Supplemental Information for the SF-424. The forms in the SF-424 forms family (e.g., the SF-424 Core Form, SF-424M, etc.) have already been cleared for use by Federal agencies to collect certain identifying information and other data from grant applicants. In this renewal for the collection package for 1894-0007 (formerly 1890-0017) , ED is requesting clearance only for the U.S. Department of Education Supplemental Information for the SF-424 form (ED Supplemental Information form). The questions on this form deal with the following areas: Project Director identifying and contact information; Novice Applicants; and Human Subjects Research. The ED supplemental information form could be used with any of the SF-424 forms in the SF-424 forms family, as applicable.

There is a slightly greater number of respondents estimated in this collection (26,000) than in the current inventory for this collection (25,344). The change in respondents is due to a higher number of discretionary and formula grant applicants estimated for FY 2008, 2009 and 2010 (based on applicant data in the last 3 fiscal years). Please note however that the number of respondents for the Impact Aid programs was deleted from this collection since the Impact Aid formula programs do not use the SF 424 or this ED Supplemental Information form. The limited number of potential Impact Aid discretionary grants applicants (e.g., less than 250) are included in the discretionary grant applicant numbers. The burden hours have also been increased from the current inventory (7860 burden hours requested vs. 6753 burden hours in the current inventory). This increase is due to the fact that it may take slightly longer (average of 20 minutes vs. 15 minutes (in current inventory)) for discretionary grant applicants to complete the revised ED Supplemental Information form now that all discretionary grant applicants must indicate on the form whether or not they meet ED’s definition for a novice applicant. Some applicants may need to research their Federal funding history in order to accurately respond to this question.
