Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: This
submission, for which the Department is
requesting clearance, is to permit the
continued processing of all Sections 202
and 811 capital advance projects that
have not yet been finally closed. The
submission includes processing of the
application for firm commitment to final
closing of the capital advance. It is
needed to assist HUD in determining the
Owner’s eligibility and capacity to
finalize the development of a housing
project under the Section 202 and
Section 811 Capital Advance Programs.
A thorough evaluation of an Owner’s
capabilities is critical to protect the
Government’s financial interest and to
mitigate any possibility of fraud, waste
and mismanagement of public funds.
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 8,348. The number of
respondents is 195, the number of
responses is 7,809, the frequency of
response is on occasion, and the burden
hour per response is 60.
B. Solicitation of Public Comment

parties concerning the collection of

Title of Proposal: Focus Groups about
the Housing Search Process for Lesbian,
Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT)
People.
Description of the Need for
Information and Proposed Use: The
Department is conducting this study as
part of a larger effort to study housing
discrimination. As part of that research,
the Department would like to learn
more about the process that people use
to search for housing. Specifically, we
are interested in the manner in which
people identify themselves as lesbian,
gay, or transgender when searching for
rental housing. The full project is to
conduct in-person testing for lesbian
and gay people in at least two major
metropolitan rental markets and
transgender people in at least one
market. The study will use paired
testing methods to measure disparate
treatment.
Members of the Affected Public:
Potential renters who are LGBT
persons (four focus groups of
15 people each).
Potential renters who are heterosexual, for comparison
purposes.
