B. Changes Proposed
HUD is proposing several changes to
the HUD–50058 Family Report. HUD is
also proposing necessary corresponding
changes to the HUD–50058 MTW and
HUD–50058 MTW Expansion Reports
for consistency, along with a few minor
revisions. This data will be used to
understand demographic, family profile,
income, and housing information. There
are several data elements that have been
changed, removed, or added from their
original content in recognition of
rulemakings, policy changes, and
current equity principles. HUD is also
removing the Welfare to Work program
references throughout the form since the
program no longer exists. HUD does not
expect the changes being proposed to
impact the burden on respondents. HUD
welcomes comments on the proposed
changes or additional changes that
should be considered when renewing
this information collection, especially
relevant to burden reduction. One
significant change is that HUD will be
moving many of the codes from the form
itself and placing them in the
instruction booklet to ease the use of the
form and allow for non-significant
future updates.
HUD–50058 Forms: The following
provides a general overview of the
changes that HUD is considering:
Section 1: Agency
lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
HUD proposes to update the program
types and add the unit real estate ID
number to this section.
Section 2: Action
HUD proposes to update the codes for
special programs and type of actions.
For the type of action codes, HUD is
proposing to remove the ‘‘Historical
Adjustment’’ code, and add codes for
PBV Transfer to Tenant-Based Voucher
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:59 Feb 07, 2023
Jkt 259001
and two action types that will allow
PHAs to record changes when the
family will not receive an interim
income reexamination due to Housing
Opportunity Through Modernization
Act of 2016, Public Law 114–201,
(HOTMA) rulemaking—Household
Composition Change Only; and Other
Change, Non-Income Threshold. In
addition, HUD plans to change the FSS
participation question to a Supportive
Service program participation question
to align with the changes in Section 17.
HUD is also proposing to add questions
to list the primary reason for a family’s
end of participation, similar to the
current HUD–50058 MTW Expansion,
but add additional Tenant Initiated code
and Nonpayment of Rent as a code.
Lastly, HUD plans to add a question on
reasons for a family’s interim
reexamination (already on the HUD–
50058 MTW Expansion); the type of
HCV voucher issued, if applicable; and
a date a participant vacated an HCV
unit, if applicable. HUD requests
comments on whether the codes
proposed and currently used in these
sections represent the best code options
for PHAs when completing the Form
50058 and whether new or changes to
existing codes should be considered.
Section 3: Household
HUD is considering changing the
Alien Registration number to provide
alternatively for a USCIS Number or
USCIS case number field. HUD requests
comments on whether such a change
would be appropriate for collecting
similar information. In addition, HUD is
considering updating the field for Sex to
Gender and allow for inclusion of XNon-Binary/Transgender, NR-No
Response/Prefer not to answer, and the
option to pick more than one response.
HUD recognizes that some PHAs have
policies that use this field response to
PO 00000
Frm 00049
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
determine bedroom sizes and other
PHAs have State requirements to allow
other such gender desingations.
Therefore, HUD requests specific
comment on what barriers PHAs might
face if HUD makes these changes and
what guidance would be helpful for
PHAs if HUD does implement this
change.
HUD is also considering, in response
to Executive Order 14075, Advancing
Equality for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
Transgender, Queer, and Intersex
Individuals, requesting information
about a household member’s Sexual
Orientation. HUD requests comments on
whether this field should be added, if
added should it be limited to specific
household members (e.g., adult
members or head of household), and
whether the categories are accurate.
HUD is considering the following
categories: Straight/Heterosexual, Gay,
Lesbian, Bisexual, Other, and No
Response/Prefer not to answer. HUD
also requests specific comments on
what guidance would be helpful if HUD
does implement this change to ensure
accuracy in collecting and maintaining
this information.
Lastly, HUD is proposing to change
the Race question to include a new code
‘‘Other’’ and considering adding to the
Disability question a new code ‘‘No
Response.’’
Section 4: Background at Admission
HUD proposes to include new lines to
include a date when the family was
selected from the waiting list; if the
family was formerly homeless; if the
family transitioned out of an
institutional setting; and whether there
was a special non-waiting list
admission.

Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 26 / Wednesday, February 8, 2023 / Notices
Section 5: Unit to be Occupied on
Effective Date of Action
HUD proposes to add an urbanization
code to accommodate Puerto Rican
addresses; provide for the type of
accessible unit identified by the PHA;
and include whether the last inspection
passed by the unit was an alternative
inspection.
proposes to add from the HUD–50058
MTW Expansion the questions about

Payments, for tenant-based voucher

HUD encourages interested parties to
submit comment in response to these
questions.

(FSS)/Welfare to Work (WtW) Voucher
Addendum
Section 3507 of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C.
chapter 35.
Section 6: Assets
HUD proposes to update this section
to delineate actual income from
imputed income for each family
member consistent with HUD’s HOTMA
rulemaking. HUD will also amend the
formula associate with the asset to
reflect the HOTMA changes.
HUD proposes to revise Section 17
heading to read ‘‘Supportive Services
Programs.’’ The section removes the
Welfare to Work voucher questions, but
provides information on effective date,
employment, and services for other
supportive services programs, such as
ROSS and Jobs Plus. There are also
minor amendments to list of benefits a
participating family receives, and the
services needed by/provided to
participating families. HUD also plans
to remove the questions about who
provides the services. HUD proposes to
remove the question about whether the
family received a selection preference
because of a FSS related service
program, given such preference is listed
elsewhere in the form. HUD also
proposes to add options to the question
of why a participant exited the FSS
program, to conform with the FSS Final
Rule.
HUD–50058 MTW and HUD–50058
MTW Expansion Form: HUD is
proposing changes primarily to this
form to conform with the changes
mentioned above and to comply with
HOTMA. HUD also proposes to: remove
the date of admission to the MTW
program because it was unnecessary;
add in a question on the total
homeownership assistance payment
(HAP); and to remove reference to
‘‘Local, Non-Traditional Assistance.’’
Section 8: Expected Income per Year
HUD proposes to revise this section
heading to ‘‘Deductions and
Allowances.’’ HUD would also include
a new question for families to indicate
if a family is eligible for a medical
hardship expense, childcare hardship
expense or both, consistent with HUD’s
HOTMA rulemaking. In addition, HUD
would add questions required to be
supplied by the PHA to help determine
if a family is subject to HOTMA’s public
housing over-income rule: what the
applicable over-income limit for
families of the application’s size is; if
the family is over-income; and the date
the over-income family began the 24
consecutive month grace period.
Section 10: Public Housing and Turnkey
III
HUD proposes to revise Section 10
heading to remove ‘‘and Turnkey III.’’
HUD also proposes to remove the
income-based ceiling rent question and
replace the ‘‘income-based ceiling rent’’
reference with ‘‘flat rent.’’
Section 11: Section 8: Project Based
Certificates and Vouchers
HUD proposes to revise Section 11
heading to remove reference to
‘‘Certificates’’ and add a question to
include the HAP Contract ID Number, as
assigned by the PBV HAP Contract
Collection module in the Housing
Information Portal (HIP).

Section 12: Housing Choice Vouchers:
Tenant Based Vouchers
HUD proposes to remove the question
about if the family qualifies as ‘‘Hard to

items requesting information on
whether the family received mobilityrelated services; if a security deposit
was paid by the PHA on behalf of the
family; and if the family received a
higher payment standard as reasonable
accommodation. In addition, HUD

records.
In accordance with the
Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, the
Department of Housing and Urban
Development, gives notice of a proposed
revision of an existing Privacy Act
system of records. The system of records
is being updated in support of a followup information collection with the
participants of the Homeless Families
Impact Study (now called the Family
Options Study). The overall goal of the
Family Options Study is to determine
which housing and service intervention
works best to promote housing stability,
family preservation, and family wellbeing, and self-sufficiency for homeless
families with children. The new
information collected will be added to
the existing Homeless Families Impact
Study Data Files. The Department
proposes to expand the data collected
under the previous study to capture
additional data to determine the effects
that housing and service interventions
has had on the young children who are
part of the sample. Refer to the
‘‘Categories of Records’’ section to
identify new record types. Additionally,
this Notice updates the routine uses of
the data collected. This notice
supersedes the previously published
notice (February 26, 2014).
DATES: Comments will be accepted on or
before March 10, 2023. This proposed
action will be effective immediately
upon publication. Routine uses will
become effective on the date following
the end of the comment period unless
comments are received which result in
a contrary determination.

content in recognition of rulemakings, policy changes, and current
equity principles. HUD is also removing the Welfare to Work program
references throughout the form since the program no longer exists. HUD
does not expect the changes being proposed to impact the burden on
respondents. HUD welcomes comments on the proposed changes or
additional changes that should be considered when renewing this
information collection, especially relevant to burden reduction. One
significant change is that HUD will be moving many of the codes from
the form itself and placing them in the instruction booklet to ease the
use of the form and allow for non-significant future updates.
HUD-50058 Forms: The following provides a general overview of the
changes that HUD is considering:
Section 1: Agency
HUD proposes to update the program types and add the unit real
estate ID number to this section.
Section 2: Action
HUD proposes to update the codes for special programs and type of
actions. For the type of action codes, HUD is proposing to remove the
``Historical Adjustment'' code, and add codes for PBV Transfer to
Tenant-Based Voucher and two action types that will allow PHAs to
record changes when the family will not receive an interim income
reexamination due to Housing Opportunity Through Modernization Act of
2016, Public Law 114-201, (HOTMA) rulemaking--Household Composition
Change Only; and Other Change, Non-Income Threshold. In addition, HUD
plans to change the FSS participation question to a Supportive Service
program participation question to align with the changes in Section 17.
HUD is also proposing to add questions to list the primary reason for a
family's end of participation, similar to the current HUD-50058 MTW
Expansion, but add additional Tenant Initiated code and Nonpayment of
Rent as a code. Lastly, HUD plans to add a question on reasons for a
family's interim reexamination (already on the HUD-50058 MTW
Expansion); the type of HCV voucher issued, if applicable; and a date a
participant vacated an HCV unit, if applicable. HUD requests comments
on whether the codes proposed and currently used in these sections
represent the best code options for PHAs when completing the Form 50058
and whether new or changes to existing codes should be considered.
Section 3: Household
HUD is considering changing the Alien Registration number to
provide alternatively for a USCIS Number or USCIS case number field.
HUD requests comments on whether such a change would be appropriate for
collecting similar information. In addition, HUD is considering
updating the field for Sex to Gender and allow for inclusion of X-Non-
Binary/Transgender, NR-No Response/Prefer not to answer, and the option
to pick more than one response. HUD recognizes that some PHAs have
policies that use this field response to determine bedroom sizes and
other PHAs have State requirements to allow other such gender
desingations. Therefore, HUD requests specific comment on what barriers
PHAs might face if HUD makes these changes and what guidance would be
helpful for PHAs if HUD does implement this change.
HUD is also considering, in response to Executive Order 14075,
Advancing Equality for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and
Intersex Individuals, requesting information about a household member's
Sexual Orientation. HUD requests comments on whether this field should
be added, if added should it be limited to specific household members
(e.g., adult members or head of household), and whether the categories
are accurate. HUD is considering the following categories: Straight/
Heterosexual, Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Other, and No Response/Prefer not
to answer. HUD also requests specific comments on what guidance would
be helpful if HUD does implement this change to ensure accuracy in
collecting and maintaining this information.
Lastly, HUD is proposing to change the Race question to include a
new code ``Other'' and considering adding to the Disability question a
new code ``No Response.''
Section 4: Background at Admission
HUD proposes to include new lines to include a date when the family
was selected from the waiting list; if the family was formerly
homeless; if the family transitioned out of an institutional setting;
and whether there was a special non-waiting list admission.

Section 5: Unit to be Occupied on Effective Date of Action
HUD proposes to add an urbanization code to accommodate Puerto
Rican addresses; provide for the type of accessible unit identified by
the PHA; and include whether the last inspection passed by the unit was
an alternative inspection.
Section 6: Assets
HUD proposes to update this section to delineate actual income from
imputed income for each family member consistent with HUD's HOTMA
rulemaking. HUD will also amend the formula associate with the asset to
reflect the HOTMA changes.
Section 8: Expected Income per Year
HUD proposes to revise this section heading to ``Deductions and
Allowances.'' HUD would also include a new question for families to
indicate if a family is eligible for a medical hardship expense,
childcare hardship expense or both, consistent with HUD's HOTMA
rulemaking. In addition, HUD would add questions required to be
supplied by the PHA to help determine if a family is subject to HOTMA's
public housing over-income rule: what the applicable over-income limit
for families of the application's size is; if the family is over-
income; and the date the over-income family began the 24 consecutive
month grace period.
Section 10: Public Housing and Turnkey III
HUD proposes to revise Section 10 heading to remove ``and Turnkey
III.'' HUD also proposes to remove the income-based ceiling rent
question and replace the ``income-based ceiling rent'' reference with
``flat rent.''
Section 11: Section 8: Project Based Certificates and Vouchers
HUD proposes to revise Section 11 heading to remove reference to
``Certificates'' and add a question to include the HAP Contract ID
Number, as assigned by the PBV HAP Contract Collection module in the
Housing Information Portal (HIP).
Section 12: Housing Choice Vouchers: Tenant Based Vouchers
HUD proposes to remove the question about if the family qualifies
as ``Hard to House.'' HUD also proposes to add items requesting
information on whether the family received mobility-related services;
if a security deposit was paid by the PHA on behalf of the family; and
if the family received a higher payment standard as reasonable
accommodation. In addition, HUD proposes to add from the HUD-50058 MTW
Expansion the questions about additional Payments, not HAP Payments,
for tenant-based voucher family and financial incentives for property
owners.
Section 17: Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS)/Welfare to Work (WtW) Voucher
Addendum
HUD proposes to revise Section 17 heading to read ``Supportive
Services Programs.'' The section removes the Welfare to Work voucher
questions, but provides information on effective date, employment, and
services for other supportive services programs, such as ROSS and Jobs
Plus. There are also minor amendments to list of benefits a
participating family receives, and the services needed by/provided to
participating families. HUD also plans to remove the questions about
who provides the services. HUD proposes to remove the question about
whether the family received a selection preference because of a FSS
related service program, given such preference is listed elsewhere in
the form. HUD also proposes to add options to the question of why a
participant exited the FSS program, to conform with the FSS Final Rule.
HUD-50058 MTW and HUD-50058 MTW Expansion Form: HUD is proposing
changes primarily to this form to conform with the changes mentioned
above and to comply with HOTMA. HUD also proposes to: remove the date
of admission to the MTW program because it was unnecessary; add in a
question on the total homeownership assistance payment (HAP); and to
remove reference to ``Local, Non-Traditional Assistance.''
