administration of CDBG funds [Section
104(e)]. The statute also requires
[Section 104(e)(2)] that HUD conduct an
annual review to determine whether
states have distributed funds to units of
general local government in a timely
manner.

discriminate in the sale, rental,
occupancy, advertising, or insuring of
residential dwellings; or to discriminate
in residential real estate-related
transactions; or in the provision of
brokerage services, based on race, color,
religion, sex, handicap.
Any person who claims to have been
injured by a discriminatory housing
practice, or any person who believes
that he or she will be injured by a
discriminatory housing practice that is
about to occur, may file a complaint
with HUD not later than one year after
the alleged discriminatory housing
practice occurs or terminates. The Form
promotes consistency in the collection
of information necessary to contact
persons who file housing discrimination
complaints with HUD. It also aids in the
collection of information necessary for
initial assessments of HUD’s authority
to investigate alleged discriminatory
housing practices under the Fair
Housing Act.
This information may subsequently be
provided to persons against whom
complaints are filed [‘‘respondents’’], as
required under section 810(a)(1)(B)(ii) of
the Fair Housing Act.

Estimation of the total number of

collection, including the number of
respondents, frequency of response, and
hours of responses: During FY 2012,
HUD staff received approximately
15,688 information submissions from
persons wishing to file housing
discrimination complaints with HUD.
Telephone contacts accounted for 3,694
of this total. The remaining 11,994
complaint submissions were transmitted
to HUD by mail, in-person, and via the
Internet. HUD estimates that an
aggrieved person requires
approximately 45 minutes in which to
complete this Form. The Form is
completed once by each aggrieved
person. Therefore, the total number of
annual burden hours for this Form is
8,996 hours.
Annualized cost burden to
complainants: HUD does not provide
postage-paid mailers for this
information collection. Accordingly,
persons who choose to submit this Form
to HUD by mail must pay the prevailing
cost of First Class Postage. As of the date
of this Notice, the annualized cost
burden per person, based on a one-time
submission of this Form to HUD via
First Class Postage, is Forty-Six Cents
($0.46) per person. During FY 2012,
FHEO staff received approximately
4,875 submissions of potential
complaint information by mail. Based
on this number, HUD estimates that the
total annualized cost burden for
aggrieved persons who submit this Form
to HUD by mail is $2,242.50. Aggrieved
persons also may submit this Form to
HUD in person, by facsimile, or
electronically via the Internet.
