SAR Electronic (eSAR) ........

Any applicant who has a Federal Student Aid PIN (FSA
PIN)—regardless of how they originally applied—may
make corrections using FOTW Corrections.
With the applicant’s permission, corrections can be
made by a FAA using the EDE.
The full paper summary that is mailed to paper applicants who did not provide an email address and to
applicants whose records were rejected due to critical errors during processing. Applicants can write
corrections directly on the paper SAR and mail for
processing.
An institution can use FAA Access to correct the
FAFSA.
The Department will submit an applicant’s record for
system-generated corrections.
Any applicant, with their Data Release Number (DRN),
can change the postsecondary institutions listed on
their FAFSA or change their address by calling
FSAIC.
The eSAR is an online version of the SAR that is available on FOTW to all applicants with a PIN. Notifications for the eSAR are sent to students who applied
electronically or by paper and provided an email address. These notifications are sent by email and include a secure hyperlink that takes the user to the
FOTW site.

This information collection also
documents an estimate of the annual
public burden as it relates to the
application process for federal student
aid. The Applicant Burden Model
(ABM), measures applicant burden
through an assessment of the activities
each applicant conducts in conjunction
with other applicant characteristics and
in terms of burden, the average
applicant’s experience. Key
determinants of the ABM include:
b The total number of applicants that
will potentially apply for federal
student aid;
b How the applicant chooses to
complete and submit the FAFSA (e.g.,
by paper or electronically via FOTW);
b How the applicant chooses to
submit any corrections and/or updates
(e.g., the paper SAR or electronically via
FOTW Corrections);
b The type of SAR document the
applicant receives (eSAR, SAR
acknowledgment, or paper SAR);
b The formula applied to determine
the applicant’s expected family
contribution (EFC) (full need analysis
formula, Simplified Needs Test or
Automatic Zero); and

Submitted by the applicant via www.fafsa.gov.
The FAA may be using their mainframe computer or
software to facilitate the EDE process.
Mailed by the applicant.

Submitted through www.faaacess.ed.gov by a FAA on
behalf of an applicant.
There is no burden to the applicants under this correction type as these are system-based corrections.
These changes are made directly in the CPS system
by a FSAIC representative.
Cannot be submitted for processing.

b The average amount of time
involved in preparing to complete the
application.
The ABM is largely driven by the
number of potential applicants for the
application cycle. The total application
projection for 2014–2015 is based upon
two factors—estimates of the total
enrollment in all degree-granting
institutions and the percentage change
in FAFSA submissions for the last
completed or almost completed
application cycle. The ABM is also
based on the application options
available to students and parents. The
Department accounts for each
application component based on web
trending tools, survey information, and
other Department data sources.
For 2014–2015, the Department is
reporting a net burden increase of
204,513 hours attributed to the increase
in applicants. We project that the
changes explained in the Summary of
Enhancements (see 2014–2015
Enhancements to the Free Application
for Federal Student Aid) will not
substantively impact burden.

Abstract: This submission is for the
2013–14 administration of the Program
for the International Assessment of
Adult Competencies (PIAAC) National
Supplement data collection to survey
adults (16–74 years old) in households
and federal and state prisons. The
PIAAC National Supplement builds
upon the 2011–12 PIAAC Main Study,
which was coordinated by the
Organization for Economic Cooperation
and Development (http://
www.oecd.org/), sponsored by the U.S.
Departments of Education and Labor in
the United States, and included data
collection in 23 countries in addition to
the United States. PIAAC assesses adult
literacy, numeracy, and problem-solving
skills in technology-rich environments
and collects survey information from
respondents about their education and
employment experience and about the
skills they use at work. PIAAC builds on
previous international literacy
assessments including the 2002 Adult
Literacy and Lifeskills Survey and the
1994–98 International Adult Literacy
Survey. The PIAAC National
Supplement data collection will occur
between August 2013 and April 2014.
