Short Statement: On April 2, 2020, the Agency
submitted a non-substantive change request to include a streamlined
workout agreement forms titled “COVID-19 Relief Workout Agreement,”
that allows Multifamily borrowers to request forbearance if they
are experiencing financial hardship due to COVID-19. An approval
was obtained on February 1, 2021, resulting in an increase of
2,257,060 responses, and 1,115,236 number of burden hours added to
the collection. However, the allotted timeframe for accepting new
submissions of the COVID-19 relief forms under the CARES Act has
expired, and the streamlined workout agreement form forms are
therefore being removed from the collection. Removal of the
streamlined agreement forms, as well as removal of forms approved
under other OMB numbers that was previously counted as part of the
burden, has resulted in an adjustment of 2,236,011responses; and
1,072,242 number of burden hours.
