Title of Proposal: Revision of MTW
Family Report—HUD 50058 MTW.
OMB Control Number, if applicable:
2577–00863.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use:
The Office of Public and Indian
Housing of the Department of Housing
and Urban Development (HUD)
provides funding to Public Housing
Agencies (PHAs) to administer assisted
housing programs. Form HUD–50058
MTW Family Reports solicit
demographic, family profile, income
and housing information on the entire
nationwide population of tenants
residing in assisted housing. The
information collected through the Form
HUD–50058 MTW will be used to
monitor and evaluate the Office of
Public and Indian Housing, Moving to

Reason for PRA
• MTW Agencies are providing
housing assistance through a wide
variety of interesting and creative
programs that fall outside of sections 8
and 9 need to be able to report
households served through these
programs into PIC.1
• The Moving to Work (MTW) PIC
Module is currently unable to capture
all of the households served through
MTW activities because the HUD 50058
MTW Form in PIC does not have a code
for reporting Local, Non-Traditional
assisted families in the PIC system.
• Agencies have not been reporting
these families into PIC and this makes
it difficult to accurately account for the
number of MTW families being served.
The MTW Office is engaging in a
manual collection of the number of
families served each year but the PIC
system needs to be revised to make this
information collection easier for MTW
agencies and HUD.
Background
• The MTW statute (1996
Appropriations Act, Section 204) states
that an agency may combine its funding
as provided under Sections 8 and 9 to
provide housing assistance and services
for low-income families. At the outset of
the demonstration, a number of MTW
agencies used this flexibility to design
activities that went outside the bounds
of the eligible activities of Sections 8
and 9 of the 1937 Act. Though the
Standard MTW Agreement did not
contain this flexibility, HUD committed
to MTW agencies during negotiations
that any provision permitted under an
agency’s original MTW agreement that
was legal could be retained under the
Standard Agreement.
• On October 1, 2009, the U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban
Development issued a letter to MTW
agencies regarding the availability of the
broader uses of funds authority, under
the Moving to Work (MTW) program.
The letter provided a brief description
of the required steps that must be
completed in order for agencies to
access this additional MTW
authorization.

information to analyze debtors’ financial
positions and then approve settlements
and repayment agreements. Borrowers
who wish to dispute must provide
information to support their position.
