Abstract: Submission of this
information allows BIA to determine
applicant eligibility for housing services
based upon the criteria referenced in 25
CFR 256.9 (repairs and renovation
assistance) and 256.10 (replacement
housing assistance). Enrolled members
of federally recognized tribes, who live
within a tribe’s designated and
approved service area, submit
information on an application form. The
information is collected on a BIA Form
6407, ‘‘Housing Assistance
Application,’’ and includes: Applicant
information; family information
including; income information; housing
information including; land
information; general information; and
an applicant certification. The program
also seeks OMB approval for two
additional collections. The Tribal
Annual Performance Report (TAPR)
Excel workbook file, is a tool created to
simplify the process for the tribal
servicing housing office to verify
eligibility, rank, and rate each
application received. The Government
Performance Results Act (GPRA)
Reporting Form is a tool created to
simplify the process for the tribal
servicing housing office to report the
amount of administrative and
construction funds spent each quarter of
the first fiscal year after receipt of HIP
funding.
