General Description of Collection: Peace Corps will use this

Corps were unable to gather responses to the interview questions and
record the information requested on this form, the agency would run the
risk of sending poorly qualified or unqualified representatives into
foreign countries. The communities where Peace Corps assigns Volunteers
often observe closely the actions and behaviors of Volunteers, who are
representatives of the United States.
Request for Comment: Peace Corps invites comments on whether the
proposed collection of information is necessary for proper performance
of the functions of the Peace Corps, including whether the information
will have practical use; the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of information, including the
validity of the information to be collected; and, ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond,
including through the use of automated collection techniques, when
appropriate, and other forms of information technology.
