Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 52 / Thursday, March 18, 2010 / Notices
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: The Rural Housing Service
(RHS) is authorized under Section
517(d) of Title V of the Housing Act of
1949, as amended, to issue loan
guarantees for the acquisition of new or
existing dwellings and related facilities
to provide decent, safe, and sanitary
living conditions and other structures in
rural areas by eligible recipients.
The Act also authorizes the Secretary
to pay the holder of a guaranteed loan
the difference between the rate of
interest paid by the borrower and the
market rate of interest.
The purpose of the program is to
assist low and moderate income
individuals and families acquire or
construct a single family residence in a
rural area with loans made by private
lenders. Eligibility for this program
includes low and moderate income
families or persons whose income does
not exceed 115 percent of the median
income for the area, as determined by
the Secretary.
The Guaranteed Rural Housing (GRH)
program was authorized under the
Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable
Housing Act, and the Agency issued a
final rule implementing the GRH
program on April 17, 1991, before
departmental reorganization. The
program began as a pilot program in 20
States on May 17, 1991. In 1992, the
GRH program was offered on a
nationwide basis. During the
implementation process, the Agency
looked for ways to improve the program
and make it more user-friendly.
The Agency recognized the need to
make its program even more compatible
with the existing structure of the
mortgage lending community. On May
22, 1995, the Agency published a final
rule incorporating the needed changes
to encourage greater participation by
lenders and the secondary market for
mortgage loans.
The information requested by the
Agency includes borrower financial
information such as household income,
assets and liabilities, and monthly
expenses. All information collected is
vital for the Agency to determine if
borrowers qualify for and assure they
receive all assistance for which they are
eligible. Information requested on
lenders is required to ensure lenders are
eligible to participate in the GRH
program. Lender requirements are in
compliance with OMB Circular A–129.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average 1.44 hours per
response.
