review, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35, as amended). HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the
information collection described in
Section A.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Proposal: Accountability in
the Provision of HUD Assistance
‘‘Applicant/Recipient Disclosure/
Update Report’’.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
OMB Control Number, if applicable:
2501–0032.
‘‘Accountability in the Provision of
HUD Assistance ‘‘Applicant/Recipient
Disclosure/Update Report’’(HUD 2880).
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: Section
102 of the Department of Housing and
Urban Development Reform Act of 1989
(HUD Reform Act) requires the
Department to ensure greater
accountability and integrity in the
provision of assistance administered by
the Department. One feature of the
statute requires certain disclosures by
applicants seeking assistance from HUD,
from states and units of local
government, and for other assistance
used to carry out activities funded with
the assistance. The disclosure includes
the financial interests of persons in the
activities, the sources of funds to be

hourly rate of management, professional and related
wages and salaries averaged $41.71 per hour plus

made available for the activities, and the
proposed uses of the funds.
Each applicant that submits an
application for assistance, within the
jurisdiction of HUD, to a state or to a
unit of general local government for a
specific project or activity must disclose
this information whenever the dollar
threshold is met. This information must
be kept updated during the application
review process and while the assistance
is being provided.
Members of affected public:
Applicants for HUD competitively
funded assistance requiring a match
must file this form. The form, HUD
2880, must be submitted as part of an
applicant’s application for
competitively funded assistance for
several programs which vary accoring to
annual funding but can include the
following:
• Section 202 Supportive Housing for
the Elderly Program;
• Section 811 Supportive Housing for
Persons with Disabilities program;
• Multifamily Service Coordinator
Program;
• Self-Help Homeownership Program;
• Continuum of Care Program;
• Rural Capacity Building for
Community Development;
• Community Compass Technical
Assistance and Capacity Building
Program;
• Research and Evaluation Notices of
Funding Availability;
• Fair Housing Initiatives program;
• Youth Homeless Demonstration
program;
• Healthy Homes and Lead Hazard
programs;
• Family Supportive Services
programs;
• Mainstream Voucher Program and
Family Uniifcation Program; and
• Jobs Plus Program.
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 form is used by
entities when they apply for grants. As
HUD receives roughly 14,000
applications on an annual basis, we
expect that there will be 14,000
respondents who may need to use this
form. HUD estimates that it will take
two hours to complete the form, at
$60.74 per hour.1 The total estimated
burden on respondents would thus
reach $1,700,720 on an annual basis.
This is shown in the following table.
$19.03 per hour for fringe benefits for a total $60.74
per hour.

includes the financial interests of persons in the activities, the
sources of funds to be made available for the activities, and the
proposed uses of the funds.
Each applicant that submits an application for assistance, within
the jurisdiction of HUD, to a state or to a unit of general local
government for a specific project or activity must disclose this
information whenever the dollar threshold is met. This information must
be kept updated during the application review process and while the
assistance is being provided.
Members of affected public: Applicants for HUD competitively funded
assistance requiring a match must file this form. The form, HUD 2880,
must be submitted as part of an applicant's application for
competitively funded assistance for several programs which vary
