DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Office of the Secretary

Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The Department of Defense has submitted to OMB for clearance, the
following proposal for collection of information under the provisions
of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).
Title: Associated Form, and OMB Number: Application for Training
Leading to Commission in the United States Air Force; AF Form 56; P<B
Number 0701-0001.
Type of Request: Reinstatement.
Number of Respondents: 2,900.
Responses Per Respondent: 1.
Annual Responses: 2,900.
Average Burden Per Response: 20 minutes.
Annual Burden Hours: 967.
Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary
for providing information to determine if applicant meets
qualifications established for training leading to a commission. Air
Force selection boards use the information to determine suitability for
officer training. Information contained on AF Form 56 supports the Air
Force as it applies to officer training (procurement) programs for
civilian and military applicants. It is imperative that only persons
fully qualified for receipt of Air Force commissions are selected for
the training leading to commissioning. Data supports the Air Force in
verifying the eligibility of applicants and in the selection of those
best qualified for dedication of funding and training resources.
Eligibility requirements are outlined in Air Force Instruction 36-2013,
``Officer Training School (OTS) and Airman Commissioning Programs.''
Affected Public: Individuals or households.
