AmeriCorps Disability Accommodations Reimbursement Request Form – Paperwork Reduction Act Review
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
AmeriCorps (operating under the Corporation for National and Community Service) has submitted a public information collection request (ICR) to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). The specific form under review is the Disability Accommodations Reimbursement Request Form, which allows individuals to request reimbursement for costs incurred when obtaining disability-related accommodations while participating in AmeriCorps programs. This submission is a routine administrative step required by federal law before any information collection instrument can be officially put into use or continued. The public is typically given an opportunity to comment on the burden, necessity, and design of such forms. The OMB's approval is required to ensure the information collection is necessary, minimizes burden on respondents, and is conducted in a legally compliant manner. The notice signals that AmeriCorps is either introducing, renewing, or modifying this form as part of its ongoing obligation to support participants with disabilities. This ensures that AmeriCorps members and volunteers who incur expenses related to disability accommodations have a formal, standardized mechanism to seek reimbursement from the agency.
