SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice informs the public that HUD is

information collection described in

information collection for a period of 60
days was published on March 24, 2023

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Emergency Housing Voucher and
Stability Voucher Data Collection.
OMB Approval Number: OMB: 2577–
0297.
Type of Request: Reinstatement of
expired data collection.
Form Number: HUD Financial Forms,
HUD–52681–B.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use:
This is a reinstatement of emergency
PRA 2577–0297 which will then be
discontinued. The data collected within
this PRA has been absorbed by another
collection 2577–0282.
The Housing Choice Voucher (HCV)
Program was recently appropriated
$43,439,000 for a new homeless voucher
program in the Fiscal Year 2021
appropriation and $5,000,000,000 for
Emergency Housing Vouchers in the
American Rescue Plan of 2021. For both
of these new voucher types it is
necessary to have the ability to monitor
and track the expenses and lease-up of
these new vouchers to ensure utilization
and appropriate program oversight.
Without this data collection it will be
impossible to recapture and reallocate
unused vouchers per congressional
mandate.
Overall, the Housing Choice Voucher
program has the need to collect leasing
and expenditure data from Public
Housing Agencies (PHAs) on a monthly
basis to determine utilization for these
vouchers as well as apply cash
management principles for funds
accounting. Further, HUD needs to
collect this leasing and expenditure
information in an expedited manner to
ensure that HUD can follow the
congressional directive to ‘‘revoke and
redistribute any unleased vouchers and
associated funds, including
administrative costs to other public
housing agencies.’’

Our burden estimate for the number
of respondents is based the number of
PHAs that have received EHV awards as
well as PHAs that will receive Stability
Vouchers. It is assumed that PHAs will
submit data monthly which is used to
calculate ‘‘responses per annum’’. This
number is multiplied by the burden
hours per response to arrive at an
annual estimate of burden hours. This is
then multiplied by median average wage
of a ‘‘Management Analyst’’ according
to the Bureau of Labor Statistics for
2021 to arrive at a total annual cost.
