Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 248 / Thursday, December 26, 2013 / Notices
OMB Approval Number: 2577–0249.
Type of Request: Revision.
Form Number: HUD–50066.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: This is a
request for information collection that
may be used in response to an incident
or incidents of actual or threatened
domestic violence, dating violence,
sexual assault or stalking that may affect
an individual’s participation in the
Section 8 or public housing programs.
When an individual presents a PHA,
owner, or manager with a claim for
protections under the Violence Against
Women Act Reauthorization Act of 2013
(VAWA 2013), the PHA, owner, or
manager may (but is not required to)
request that the individual complete,
sign and submit within 14 business days
of the request, a HUD approved
certification form, or alternate
documentation as described on the
certification form, to document the
domestic violence, dating violence,
sexual assault, or stalking. The PHA’s,
owner’s, or manager’s request for
documentation must be made in
writing. On the certification form, the
individual certifies that s/he is a victim
of domestic violence, dating violence,
sexual assault or stalking, and that the
incident or incidences in question are
bona fide incidences of such actual or
threatened abuse. On the certification
form, the individual must provide the
name of the perpetrator only if the name
of the perpetrator is safe to provide, and
is known to the victim.
PHAs are instructed that the delivery
of the certification form to the tenant in
response to an incident(s) via mail may
place the victim at risk, e.g., the abuser
may monitor the mail; consequently,
PHAs, owners and management agents
may require that the tenant come into
the office to pick up the certification
form. PHAs and owners are also
encouraged to work with tenants to
make delivery arrangements that do not
place the tenant at risk.
If the PHA, owner, or manager
provides the individual with a written
request for documentation of the abuse,
and the individual does not provide the
certification form, or alternate
documentation as described on the
certification form, within 14 business
days from the date of receipt of the
PHA’s, owner’s, or manager’s written
request (or after any extension of that
date provided by the PHA, owner or
manager), the Victim cannot be assured
s/he will receive VAWA protections.
Note, On August 6, 2013, HUD
published in the Federal Register
(Volume 78, Number 151, 47717) a
notice describing the impacts of the
VAWA 2013 on HUD programs. The
VerDate Mar<15>2010
18:06 Dec 24, 2013
Jkt 232001
notice provided an overview of the key
ways in which VAWA 2013 would
enhance existing VAWA protections for
victims of domestic violence, dating
violence and stalking in HUD’s public
housing and Section 8 Housing Choice
Voucher (HCV) programs, listed the
additional HUD programs that would
now be covered by the statute,
explained that VAWA protections
would be extended to victims of sexual
assault, and advised of HUD’s plans to
issue rules and/or guidance on the new
law at a later date. HUD also requested
public comment on certain topics that
VAWA 2013 left to HUD’s discretion.
Included in that request was how HUD
should adapt VAWA certification forms
(HUD–50066 and HUD–91066) to
document abuse covered by VAWA
2013 to include the newly covered
programs. The current certification form
HUD–50066 expires on February 28,
2014. HUD determined that the form
HUD–50066 should be updated to
include only the items required by
VAWA 2013. HUD intends to issue at a
later date a new form covering all HUD
covered programs that conforms to
VAWA 2013 and considers comments
received on the notice (comments
posted under docket number HUD–
2013–0074 on www.regulations.gov).
The new form would replace HUD–
50066.
Respondents (i.e. affected public):
Public Housing Authorities (PHAs),
Owners, and Management Agents,
participating in the Public Housing and
Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher
programs.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
200.
Estimated Number of Responses: 200.
Frequency of Response: Once.
Average Hours per Response: 60
