The proposed information collection requirement described below has been submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for emergency review and approval, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act. The Department is soliciting public comments on the subject proposal. The HOPE for Homeowners Act of 2008, located in Title IV of Division A of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 (HERA) (Pub. L. 110-289, 122 Stat. 2654, approved July 30, 2008), amended Title II of the National Housing Act to add a new section 257. New section 257 (12 U.S.C. 1701z-22) established within the Federal Housing Administration (FHA), HOPE for Homeowners, a temporary FHA program that offers homeowners and existing mortgage loan holders (or servicers acting on their behalf) insurance on the refinancing of loans for distressed mortgagors. Regulations published in 24 CFR 4001.01 through 24 CFR 4001.408 detail the requirements pertinent to HUD's single family mortgage insurance programs, i.e., the eligibility requirements and underwriting procedures, which are determined by the documents included in this clearance package. ``Under the Program, new mortgages are offered by FHA-approved mortgagees to mortgagors who are at risk of losing their homes to foreclosure. The new FHA-insured mortgages refinance the borrower's existing mortgage at a significant write-down. Eligible borrowers must be unable to afford their existing mortgage payments, must occupy the residence that is the security for the refinanced mortgage as their primary residence, and may not have any present ownership interest in another residence. Investors and investor properties are not eligible for the FHA-insured refinanced mortgages. Under the Program, participating mortgagors share their new equity and future appreciation with FHA. Additionally, participation in this Program is voluntary. No mortgagees, servicers, or investors are compelled to participate.
