Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: HUD has made the following non-material changes to its employment/unemployment documentation requirements, and non-material changes to credit documentation and credit analysis. There are no current program changes. Rather, further analysis of employment/unemployment documentation will be performed to assess a borrower's current and prior credit performance as it relates to their employment history, as well as their ability to repay mortgage and other recurring debt. Due to the instability of the market, lenders are promoting FHA-insured mortgages. While borrowers must meet certain requirements established by FHA to qualify for the insurance, lenders bear less risk because FHA will pay the lender if a homeowner defaults on his or her loan. This may account for the decrease in respondents and responses.
