Information Collection Request Title: SF-270 Request for Advance or Reimbursement.

Abstract: The SF-270 Request for Advance or Reimbursement form is used by grant awardees to request financial assistance funds for the purpose of reimbursement or for advance of funds.

Need and Proposed Use of the Information: The SF-270 Request for Advance or Reimbursement form is used by grant awardees in post-award financial activities related to Federal financial assistance.

Likely Respondents: Federal financial assistance awardees.

Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide the information requested. This includes the time needed to review instructions, to develop, acquire, install and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of collecting, validating and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information, to train personnel and to be able to respond to a collection of information, to search data sources, to complete and review the collection of information, and to transmit or otherwise disclose the information. The total annual burden hours estimated for the ICs are summarized in the table below.

HHS estimates that the form will take 1 hour to complete each form.

Once OMB approves the use of the SF-270 Request for Advance or Reimbursement form as a common form, federal agencies may request OMB approval to use this common form without having to publish notices and request public comments for 60 and 30 days. Each agency must account for the burden associated with their use of the common form.
