Abstract: FEMA may request debtors to provide personal financial information on FEMA Form 127-0-1 concerning their current financial position. With this information, FEMA evaluates whether to allow its debtors to pay their FEMA debts under installment repayment agreements and if so, under what terms. FEMA also uses this data to determine whether to compromise, suspend, or completely terminate collection efforts on respondent's debts. This data is also used to locate the debtor's assets if the debts are sent for judicial enforcement.

Short Statement: There has been an increase in the annual hour burden from 1,200 to 1,500; an increase of 300 hours. This increase is due to the expected number of recipients of disaster assistance and the more intensive efforts by FEMA to collect overpayments to those disaster assistance recipients that were provided assistance funds exceeding allowable levels. FEMA is making more effort to provide installment agreements to those with debts to the agency.
