Public reporting burden for this collection of information is estimated to average XX minutes per response, including the time for reviewing
instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of
information. This agency may not collect this information, and you are not required to complete this form, unless it displays a currently valid
OMB control number.
HUD implemented the xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to process requests for payments to grantees. Grant recipients fill out a voucher form for the
applicable HUD program with all the necessary information prior to making a telephone call using a touch tone telephone to initiate the
drawdown process. The grantee will be prompted for entering the information and for confirming information that is spoken back by the VRS
simulated voice. This information is required to obtain benefits under the xxxxxxxxxxx. The information requested does not lend itself to
confidentiality.

Privacy Statement: Public Law 97-255, Financial Integrity Act, 31 U.S.C. 3512, authorizes the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)

Other General Rules
09. The normal HUD font standard is Helvetica
10. At the top of all pages, except the first, there should be a drawn line. This is
not an absolute rule. Some forms do not need this. However, if the line
is on the top of any page, then there must be a line on the top of every page
except the first page. There should never be a line at the top of the first page.
11, At the bottom of each page, there should be a line above the footer. This line
can be contained in the footer with an empty line below if is so desired.
12. Extremely Important: Leave enough white space above Headers, below
Footers, and on the right/left margins so that pages do not inadvertently cause
page breaks where they are not desired. Most forms, after being created in
MS Word or Excel, are then converted to PDF format. This conversion is an
automatic process and if the margins on any of these areas are too
small, the PDF process will automatically cause undesirable page breaks.
13. Shading - when shading is used, it should have a black density of 15%.

II. Getting a Form Completed and Approved
1. Create the form using the rules in Section I including all the header information,
OMB number, OMB statements, and the necessary footer information as described.
2. Insert the correct OMB language for your form as shown in circled number 5 on
the first page. You must get this text from your OMB forms representative.
3. Deliver the electronic version of the new proposed form to Forms Management:
OAMS - Records & Directives Branch. The electornic version must be the source
of the form such as MS Word, Pagemaker, Excel, not a scanned image or pdf.
4. This Office will assign a new form number (old form numbers cannot be reused), and if the form is acceptable, this office will supply the requestor with a pdf
copy of the form to be used for OMB approval submittals. The requestor will then
submit the proposed form, along with OMB Submittal information, to Wayne
Eddins, Reports Management Officer. This office does not want to receive
any of the OMB justifications, etc. since this is outside of the functions of this
office.
5. When OMB has approved the form, the form owner or this office will modify the
draft by correcting the OMB Number, expiration date, and issuance date. This
office will then post the form on HUDClips and make it a current/active form.
