Abstract:
The final regulations simplify the program requirements to make it easier for TEACH Grant recipients to document their progress toward satisfying the service obligation and expand the conditions under which a TEACH Grant recipient may receive a temporary suspension of the period for completing the teaching service obligation. The Department is requesting approval of a new information collection for the TEACH Grant Certification of Completed Teaching (Certification) and five Service Obligation Suspension Requests (Suspension Requests) included with this submission. The Military Service Suspension Request also serves as the means by which a TEACH Grant recipient may request a full or partial discharge of the service obligation based on extended military service. The Certification and Suspension Requests reflect the regulatory provisions as proposed in 34 CFR 686.40, 686.41 and 686.42.
