Evaluate whether to continue the
quality of appeal that rendered the
initial rent adjustment decision made to
local HUD Office or Contract
Administrator and Section appeals to
HUD Director, who will designate to an
Officer to review any appeal. This
Notice also lists the following
information:
Title of Proposal: Procedure for
Appealing Section 8 Rent Adjustments.
OMB Control Number, if applicable:
2502–0446.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: HUD is
charged with the responsibility of
determining the method of rent
adjustments and with facilitating these
adjustments. Because rent adjustments
are considered benefits to project
owners, HUD must also provide some
means for owners to appeal the
decisions made by the Department or
the Contract Administrator. This appeal
process, and the information collection
included as part of the process, play an
important role in preventing costly
litigation and in ensuring the accuracy
of the overall rent adjustment process.
Agency form numbers, if applicable:
Owners will submit rent appeal on
owner’s letterhead providing a written
explanation for the appeal.
Estimation of the total numbers of
hours needed to prepare the information
collection including number of
respondents, frequency of response, and
hours of response: The number of
burden hours is 1050. The number of
respondents is 525 and the number of
responses is 525, the frequency of
response is on occasion, and the burden
hour per response is 2.
Status of the proposed information
collection: This is an extension of a
currently approved collection.
Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995, 44 U.S.C., Chapter 35, as amended.
Dated: August 17, 2011.

Associate General Deputy Assistant Secretary

Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
Uniform Financial Reporting Standards
(UFRS) regulation requires HUD’s
multifamily housing program
participants to submit financial data
electronically, using generally accepted
accounting principles, in a prescribed
format. HUD collects the financial
information from participants to
evaluate the financial condition of
multifamily properties receiving Federal
financial assistance. With the
standardization of the data under UFRS,
it has been easier for HUD to monitor
compliance, and to identify and mitigate
risks to the government.

None.
Estimation of the total numbers of
hours needed to prepare the information
collection including number of
respondents, frequency of response, and
hours of response: The number of
burden hours is 297,108. The number of
respondents is 21,222, the number of
responses is 21,222, the frequency of
response is annually, and the burden
hour per response is 14.
Status of the proposed information
collection: This is a renewal of a
previously approved collection.
