This information collection is required to identify families who no longer participate in a HUD rental assistance program due to adverse termination of tenancy and/or assistance, and owe a debt to a Public Housing Agency (PHA). The information is used by PHAs to determine a familyâs suitability for rental assistance, and avoid providing limited Federal housing assistance to families who have previously demonstrated an inability to comply with HUD program requirements or who have an unpaid debt to a PHA.
The reasons for the adjustments in Item 13 on OMB Form 83-I are twofold. One, in PIC there are fewer PHAs than there were at the time of the previous request for an extension of this PRA. This reduces the number of respondents and total annual responses. Two, during the time period used to estimate the burden hours for this extension (February 1, 2015 through January 31, 2016), the number of families in PIC that ended participation in PIH programs was higher than during the time period used to make the burden hour estimate for the previous extension request (which was February 1, 2012 through January 31, 2013). This increases the annual burden hour estimate.
