Amending your License

IES must be kept informed of any modifications in project operations or security procedures throughout the License and data loan period.

You must notify the IES Data Security Program of any departures or additions to your project staff. The PPO may also submit a request for more data. The PPO must also notify the IES Data Security Program if the agreed upon data security arrangements change.

All License amendments must be processed through the Electronic Application System. To log onto the Electronic Application System to amend your License, use the link you received when you first applied for the License. If you do not have this link, go to the system login page and use your License number and the PPO’s email address to generate an email with a link to your License. If you have any problems logging into the system, please contact IESData.Security@ed.gov.

For first time users of the Electronic Application System, the amendment process involves two steps:

1) Access your License information with the link you received via email. You will be presented with a series of web screens that request information about your License as it stands now. (Do NOT add in information about your amendment request at this time.) Use the information you have in your License file to fill in the requested information. Once you fill in the missing information as requested, submit the information, and then log out of the System.

2) To request a License amendment, log back into the System with your link. A series of buttons for each type of amendment request will be available to you. Select the button for the amendment type you want and follow the on screen instructions.

NOTE: The system can only process one amendment type at a time, and any pending amendment has to be approved by IES before another amendment can be submitted.
