President. with regard to title V of H.R. 4. the Work Opportunity Act. I am interested in clarifying an issue regarding the applicability of the term "assistance * * * for which eligibility is based on need" to various student loan programs. As I understand this legislation. eligibility for needsbased public assistance will either be subject to a deeming period or will be forbidden for a period of 5 years for most noncitizens. At this time. there seems to be an erroneous public perception that all student financial aid programs will be subject to these provisions. This is not the case.
