OMB Control Number: 2577–0246.
Description of the need for the

the operating fund final rule, PHAs that
elect to file an appeal of their subsidy
amounts are required to meet the appeal
requirements set forth in subpart G of
the operating fund final rule. The final
rule establishes five grounds for appeals
in 24 CFR § 990.245 and they are the: (a)
Streamlined appeal; (b) appeal of
formula income for economic hardship;
(c) appeal for specific local conditions;
(d) appeal for changing market
conditions; and (e) appeal to substitute
actual project cost data. To appeal the
amount of subsidy on any one of the
permitted bases of appeal, PHAs submit
an appeal request to HUD.
Agency form number, if applicable:
N/A.
Members of affected public: PHAs,
state or local government.
Estimation of the total number of
hours needed to prepare the information
collection including number of
respondents: The estimated number of
respondents is an annual average of 322
PHAs that submit an appeal of the
amount of operating subsidy, for a total
of 322 PHAs that submit annually. The
average number for each PHA response
varies by size of the PHA, with a total
reporting burden of 5,168 hours; and an

information:
Title of Proposal: FHA-Insured
Mortgage Loan Servicing Involving the
Loss Mitigation Programs.
OMB Control Number, if applicable:
2502–0589.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: FHA
insurance is an important source of
mortgage credit for low and moderateincome borrowers and neighborhoods.
Providing assistance, as needed, to
enable families to cure their
delinquencies and retain their homes
stabilizes neighborhoods that might
otherwise suffer from deterioration and
problems associated with vacant and
abandoned properties. Avoidance of
foreclosure and the resultant costs also
serve to further stabilize the mortgage
insurance premiums charged by FHA
and the Federal budget receipts
generated from those premiums.
The information collection request for
OMB review seeks to extend OMB
2502–0589, a currently established OMB
collection, for an additional three years.
