Description of the need for the information and proposed use: This request is for the clearance of survey instruments designed to provide statistically accurate information on the outcomes realized by clients of housing counseling agencies seeking assistance to either purchase a home (pre-purchase clients) or to resolve or prevent mortgage delinquency (post-purchase clients). Up to 60 housing counseling agencies will be recruited to voluntarily participate in the study. These agencies will be asked to seek the voluntary participation of all of their prepurchase, post-purchase, and mortgage foreclosure mitigation and prevention clients over an eight-week period, with the goal of enrolling up to 1,000 prepurchase clients; up to 1,000 postpurchase clients; and up to 2,000 mortgage foreclosure mitigation and prevention clients. Participating clients will be asked to complete a baseline survey providing demographic and financial information on their household and their reasons for seeking PO 00000 Frm 00076 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 counseling. The participating counseling agencies will be asked to provide information on the characteristics of all counseling services provided to participating clients over a six-month period. Counseling agencies will also be asked to provide information on all of their educators and counselors providing services to these clients, including basic demographics and information on their experience and training as educators and counselors. The purpose of these surveys is to gather information needed to both document the share of clients realizing different outcomes following counseling and to analyze how these outcomes vary with the characteristics of clients and the services they receive. OMB Approval Number: Pending. Agency form numbers: None. Members of Affected Public: Up to 60 housing Counseling Agencies and up to 4,000 counseling clients. Estimation of the total number of hours needed to prepare the information collection including number of respondents, frequency of response, and hours of response: The average time per client for counseling agencies to document the services provided over a six-month period is two hours. The average time for counseling agencies to complete the survey on educator and counselor characteristics is one-quarter of an hour (with an expected average of eight counselors per agency). The average time for clients to complete the baseline survey instrument is one-half hour. Total burden hours are 8,120 for counseling agencies and 2,000 for counseling clients, or 10,120 total burden hours. Status of the proposed information collection: Pending OMB approval.

Under the Agreement, the mortgagee is authorized to originate single-family mortgage loans and submit them to FHA for insurance endorsement. The Agreement may be terminated on the basis of poor performance of FHA-insured mortgage loans originated by the mortgagee. The termination of a mortgagee’s Agreement is separate and apart from any action taken by HUD’s Mortgagee Review Board under HUD’s regulations at 24 CFR part 25. Cause: HUD’s regulations permit HUD to terminate the Agreement with any mortgagee having a default and claim rate for loans endorsed within the preceding 24 months that exceeds 200 percent of the default and claim rate within the geographic area served by a HUD field office, and also exceeds the national default and claim rate. For the 33rd review period, HUD is terminating the Agreement of mortgagees whose default and claim rate exceeds both the national rate and 200 percent of the field office rate. Effect: Termination of the Agreement precludes that branch(s) of the mortgagee from originating FHA-insured single-family mortgages within the area of the HUD field office(s) listed in this notice.
