SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
When did the Secretary extend the TPS
designation for Haiti?
On October 1, 2012, the Secretary
extended the TPS designation for Haiti
for a period of 18 months by notice in
the Federal Register. See 77 FR 59943.
The extension is effective from January
23, 2013 through July 22, 2014.
Why is the Secretary extending the reregistration period for Haitian TPS
beneficiaries?
Due to the disruptive effects of
Hurricane Sandy across the
Northeastern region of the United
States, DHS is extending the reregistration period through January 29,
2013. DHS recognizes that Haitian TPS
beneficiaries affected by the hurricane
may require additional time to prepare
a re-registration application and to
gather either the funds to cover the reregistration fees or the documentation to
support a fee waiver request.
Janet Napolitano,
Secretary.

Title of Proposal: StatutorilyMandated Collection of Information for
Tenants in LIHTC Properties.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: Section
2835(d) of the Housing and Economic
Recovery Act, or HERA, (Pub. L. 110–
289, approved July 30, 2008) amends
Title I of the U.S. Housing Act of 1937
(42 U.S.C. 1437 et seq.) (1937 Act) to
add a new section 36 (to be codified as
42 U.S.C. 1437z-8) that requires each
state agency administering tax credits
under section 42 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986 (low-income housing tax
credits or LIHTC) to furnish HUD, not
less than annually, information
concerning the race, ethnicity, family
composition, age, income, use of rental
assistance under section 8(o) of the U.S.
Housing Act of 1937 or other similar
assistance, disability status, and
monthly rental payments of households
residing in each property receiving such
credits through such agency.
New section 36 requires HUD to
establish standards and definitions for
the information to be collected by state
agencies and to provide states with
technical assistance in establishing
systems to compile and submit such
information and, in coordination with
other federal agencies administering
housing programs, establish procedures
to minimize duplicative reporting
requirements for properties assisted
under multiple housing programs. In
2010, OMB approved the first collection
instrument used for the collection of
LIHTC household information (OMB
Approval No. 2528–0165, expiration
date 05/31/2013). HUD used the
previously approved form to collect data
on LIHTC tenants in 2009, 2010 and
2011. Renewal of this form is required
for HUD to remain in compliance with
the statute.
OMB Approval Number: 2528–0165.
Agency form numbers: None.
Members of Affected Public: There are
sixty state and local housing finance
agencies which allocate low-income
housing tax credits and conduct
program compliance. HERA directs
these agencies to submit the requested
data to HUD.

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Estimation of the total number of
hours needed to prepare the information
collection including number of
respondents, frequency of response, and
hours of response: This data collection
includes two forms, one requesting data
on properties placed in service in a
single calendar year and a second
requesting data on all tenants in LIHTCsubsidized units, and will be conducted
annually. HUD expects completion of
the properties placed in service form to
average approximately eight personhours per respondent. HUD expects
completion of the tenant form to average
approximately forty person-hours per
respondent. In combination, the overall
response burden totals 48 person-hours
per respondent. The total estimated
annual burden across all respondents
for this data collection is 2,880 hours
(60 respondents × 48 hours per
respondent).
Status of the proposed information
collection: Pending OMB approval.
