Title: When You Are a Full-Time Elementary or Secondary School Student (552F) 
Abstract: These final regulations revise our rules on full-time elementary or secondary school students to include students enrolled in home schooling or independent study programs authorized by State or local law, e.g., political subdivision, tribal government, or the District of Columbia. Prior rules covered only students in traditional institutional educational settings; however, many States (or other jurisdictions) provide for home schooling and independent study programs considered equivalent to traditional schools. These rules will show that nonpayment provisions apply to certain prisoners and certain other inmates of publicly funded institutions who otherwise would meet student benefit requirements. In addition, we have removed outdated rules on student benefits relating to months before August 1982.
