Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: The program has evolved in the last ten years and lenders no longer use this form for anything other than the 203k loans, as a result the number of times the form is used has has diminished. The program allows lenders to use the form but as a practical matter, the form is no longer necessary for changes to new construction where a local government inspects and issues occupancy permits. The form is now used only for changes in plans to a 203k rehabilitation plan. This accounts for the decrease in burden and responses.
