This is a request for a revision to a currently approved collection. The numbers of respondents, responses, and associated burden hours for the application to become a HUD-approved housing counseling agency have changed since the last OMB approval due to the congressionally mandated Statute of 2010 and the subsequent Housing Counseling: New Certification Requirements Final Rule released December 14, 2016. Section 106 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968 (12 U.S.C. 1701x) (Section 106) was amended by Subtitle D of title XIV of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Pub. L. 111–203, 124 Stat. 1376, approved July 21, 2010) to strengthen and improve the effectiveness of housing counseling that is required under or provided in connection with HUD programs (Section 106 amendments).
