Supporting Statement for Paperwork Reduction Act Submissions



A. Justification


1. Circumstances that make the collection of information necessary.

Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has developed a loan processing procedure called Multifamily Accelerated Processing (MAP) under which they allow Federal Housing Administration (FHA) approved Lenders to prepare loan applications, process the collected data and submit loan applications for FHA multifamily mortgage insurance, subject to review by HUD staff. This procedure applies to loan programs processed under Section 220, Sections 221(d)(3) and (4), Section 223(f), Section 231 of the National Housing Act and future National Housing Act programs Section 223(a)(7) and Section 241(a).

In addition to being an FHA-approved multifamily mortgagee, a Lender must meet additional qualifications if it wishes to participate in MAP. There is no requirement that a Lender participate in MAP because the traditional method of processing is still available, but most Lenders prefer to use MAP because it substantially shortens the HUD processing time. Since HUD wants to ensure that only experienced multifamily Lenders be given the responsibilities for processing under MAP this collection of information will also make it necessary for the Department to determine whether the applicants have the necessary qualifications and experience to handle the additional duties and responsibilities of a MAP Lender. The submission of the information is required for all applicants who wish to be MAP approved.

The collection of information set forth in Chapter 2 of the Multifamily Accelerated Processing Guide, which covers the MAP Lender approval requirements and the requirement for submission of a Quality Control Plan, is necessary in order to determine which Lenders are qualified to use this form of national accelerated processing.

Lastly, several HUD Forms are referenced throughout the MAP Guide. This collection uses the following Forms that are covered under other information collections listed below for the application process for FHA multifamily mortgage insurance. These Forms used in the application process includes gathering, retention, recordkeeping, and reporting. The Department continues to work on instruments for the MAP Guide under other collections. Listed below are those Forms and their OMB Approval numbers:

2. By who, and for what purpose is the information to be used?

This MAP Guide outlines the basic instructions, requirements, and processing procedures for a multifamily rental loan application from the pre-application phase of processing through firm commitment issuance, construction, cost certification and final endorsement where applicable for the approved MAP Lender a review by the Department. The MAP Lender assumes the responsibility of underwriting the loan to include the preparation of narrative reports, gathering of data, collection of information, the review of reports and data prepared by licensed professionals (Appraisers, Architects, Cost Analysts, Underwriters, etc.), and the completion of applicable HUD Forms. The completed package is then submitted to the local HUD multifamily housing office for review by the Department for the possible issuance of a Firm Commitment.

  1. Use of technical collection techniques to reduce burden.

All Forms (with OMB Clearance numbers) are available on Department’s website. In the past the Office of Multifamily Housing Development (MHD) did not receive these forms electronically for submission of a complete application package for mortgage insurance. Some of the forms are in the pdf format, pdf fillable or can be scanned and sent by electronic mail. This collection of information does not involve the use of an automated system for the preparation and submission of complete application packages for mortgage insurance. The Department and MHD are undergoing a transformation of the IT infrastructure which will dictate the type of automated systems to be developed. The Office of MHD has communicated that it is imperative that the automated system developed adequately address concerns for confidentiality (due to the nature of data reported) and the need and ability to capture electronic-signatures. Until the IT transformation has time to materialize, MHD has established a viable electronic intake process that is sustainable through the receipt of complete application packages by a disc or removeable drive.

  1. Identify duplication.

Development and construction cost varies with each project. General or modified information is not acceptable. No other forms exists which can be acceptable. No other existing forms can be substituted to obtain the required information for mortgage proceeds.

  1. Impact of small organizations.

The Department minimizes the burden on small businesses by requiring the collection of information only once at or before Initial Endorsement.

  1. Consequences of less frequent collection.

The collection of information occurs only once for each loan for mortgage insurance for multifamily housing project and MAP approval of a Lender. The Department could not comply with the provisions of the law and Federal Regulations if the collection was eliminated.

  1. Special circumstances.

There are no special circumstances that apply to this information collection.

  1. Federal Register /

In accordance with 5 CFR 1320.8(d) this collection was announced in the Federal Register on October 8. 2010, Vol. 75, No. 195, page 62410-11. Additionally, a 30 day federal register notice was published on December 22, 2010.

The following individual mortgage companies provided comments regarding the information collection. All individuals indicated that the information collection is still necessary to conduct business.

Hourly cost is based on a GS-12/5 Federal salary. The burden hours are substantially reduced as HUD only performs a review of the actual MAP application package and does not gather the actual data.

15. Reasons for any program changes or adjustments.

This is a revision of the currently approved collection for approval of MAP Lender requirements. There are no changes to the way the program is administered. We are adding the FHA multifamily mortgage insurance application process, which accounts for the increase in the responses and burden hours.

16. Collection of information whose results will be published.

Collection of this information will not be published. Each form will be maintained with the HUD Program Office in individual case file.

17. Display of expiration date.

HUD is not seeking approval to avoid displaying the OMB expiration date.

18. Exceptions to Certification Statement.

There are no exceptions to the “Certification Statement” identified in item 19 of Form OMB 83-1.

B. Collection of information employing statistical methods.

There are no plans to use statistical methods for collection of this information.
