Summary
DFC published a Federal Register notice extending the public comment period for the renewal of Form DFC-012 (Application for Debt Finance) under the Paperwork Reduction Act. The agency received no comments from the initial 60-day notice and is providing an additional 30 days for public feedback. The information collection applies to investors and for-profit institutions, with an estimated annual burden of 10 hours across 20 respondents. Comments are due by May 11, 2026.
What changed
The U.S. International Development Finance Corporation is seeking public comments on the renewal of Form DFC-012 (Application for Debt Finance), an existing information collection approved under OMB Control Number 3015-0001. The collection provides the DFC Economic Questionnaire to investors to complete information on planned revenues and exports of goods, which determines the sector of analysis to assess risk to the U.S. economy of DFC support for projects.
Affected parties including investors and business or other for-profit institutions seeking DFC debt financing should note the May 11, 2026 comment deadline. The collection imposes minimal burden with an estimated 10 annual hours across 20 respondents at 0.5 hours per response. No changes to the information collection are being made; this notice merely extends the comment period following no responses to the initial 60-day notice.
What to do next
- Monitor for updates on OMB approval status
- Submit comments by May 11, 2026 if affected by DFC financing requirements
