Short Statement: The estimated burden hours increased by 88 hours while the annual responses have increased by 177. The increase in burden is not attributed to additional completion time related to either new form but instead is an overall estimated increase in total future usage of the forms based on the number of borrowers who utilize the FSA-2060 to request servicing actions over the past five years. Due to Executive Order 14058, the Secretary of Agriculture tasked FSA with simplifying the direct loan application process resulting in retirement of FSA-2060 and creation of FSA-2061 and FSA-2062.
