The change in burden is a PROGRAM CHANGE due to the 1625-AC83 M2M rulemaking. • Program Change – increase of 156 hours – is due to the addition of an option to exempt certain members of the uniformed services from paying the MMC application fee. To obtain the exemption, the member must provide documentation of their service. The reporting and recordkeeping requirements, and the methodology for calculating burden, remain unchanged.
