SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the
information collection described in
Section A.
ADDRESSES:

A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Voucher Management System (VMS).
OMB Approval Number: 2577–0282.
Type of Request: Revision of a
previously approved collection.
Form Number: HUD–52672, 52681,
52681–B, 52663 and 52673.
Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) that
administer the Housing Choice Voucher
(HCV) Program are required to maintain

financial reports in accordance with
accepted accounting standards in order
to permit timely and effective audits.
The HUD–52672 (Supporting Data for
Annual Contributions Estimates Section
8 Housing Assistance Payments
Program) and 52681 (Voucher for
Payment of Annual Contributions and
Operating Statement Housing
Assistance Payments Program) financial
records identify the amount of annual
contributions that are received and
disbursed by the PHA and are used by
PHAs that administer the five-year
Mainstream Program, MOD Rehab, and
Single Room Occupancy. Form HUD–
52663 (Suggested Format for Requisition
for Partial Payment of Annual
Contributions Section 8 Housing
Assistance Payments Program) provides
for PHAs to indicate requested funds
and monthly amounts. Form HUD–
52673 (Estimate of Total Required
Annual Contributions Section 8
Housing Assistance Payments Program)
allows PHAs to estimate their total
required annual contributions. The
required financial statements are similar
to those prepared by any responsible
business or organization. The automated
form HUD–52681–B (Voucher for
Payment of Annual Contributions and
Operating Statement Housing
Assistance Payments Program
Supplemental Reporting Form) is
entered by the PHA into the Voucher
Management System (VMS) on a
monthly basis during each calendar year
to track leasing and Housing Assistance
Payments (HAP) expenses by voucher
category, as well as data concerning
fraud recovery, Family Self-Sufficiency
escrow accounts, PHA-held equity, etc.
The inclusion, change, and deletion of
the fields will improve the allocation of
funds and allow the PHAs and the
Department to realize a more complete
picture of the PHAs’ resources and

program activities, promote financial
accountability, and improve the PHAs’
ability to provide assistance to as many
households as possible while
maximizing budgets. In addition, the
fields will be crucial to the
identification of actual or incipient
financial problems that will ultimately
affect funding for program participants.
The automated form HUD–52681–B is
also utilized by the same programs as
the manual forms.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: The
Voucher Management System (VMS)
supports the information management
needs of the Housing Choice Voucher
(HCV) Program and management
functions performed by the Financial
Management Center (FMC) and the
Financial Management Division (FMD)
of the Office of Public and Indian
Housing and the Real Estate Assessment
Center (PIH–REAC). This system’s
primary purpose is to provide a central
system to monitor and manage the
Public Housing Agency (PHAs) use of
vouchers and expenditure of program
funds and is the base for budget
formulation and budget
implementation. The VMS collects
PHAs’ actual cost data that enables HUD
to perform and control cash
management activities; the costs
reported are the base for quarterly HAP
and Fee obligations and advance
disbursements in a timely manner, and
reconciliations for overages and
shortages on a quarterly basis.
Respondents (i.e., affected public):
Public Housing Authorities (PHA).
Estimated Number of Respondents:
2,185.
Estimated Number of Responses:
26,980.
Frequency of Response: Monthly.
Average Hours per Response: 2.
Total Estimated Burdens: 53,580.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
notice informs the public that HUD is
seeking approval from OMB for the
information collection described in
Section A.
A. Overview of Information Collection
Title of Information Collection:
Promise Zones Reporting.
OMB Approval Number: 2501–0035.
Type of Request: Reinstatement with
changes.
Form Number: HUD–9916 Promise
Zone Annual Narrative Report.
HUD–9917 Quarterly Investments &
Assistance Report.
HUD–9919 Quarterly Progress and
Annual Priorities Report.
Description of the need for the
information and proposed use: This
collection is a reinstatement with
changes to a previous collection that
collected information for reporting
purposes. The HUD–XXXX ‘‘New
Neighborhood Amenities’’ form, from
the original 2501–0035 OMB approval,
has been removed from this collection
because the form was never used.
Additionally, HUD Form 9917 (Biannual Non-Federal Investment report)
and HUD Form 9918 (Monthly Federal
Grants Report) have been merged so that
HUD 9917 will now collect the
information previously captured in

Burden hour

HUD 9918. HUD 9917 has therefore
been reformatted to collect this new
information and to be more userfriendly; HUD 9918 has been removed
and retired from this collection. HUD–
9917 will now be called the Quarterly
Investments and Assistance Report; it
will be collected quarterly and
submitted cumulatively. These changes
will reduce unnecessary copying and
pasting, reformatting, and file
management, and will ultimately reduce
the burden on respondents.
HUD designated fourteen
communities as urban Promise Zones
between 2014 and 2016. Under the
Promise Zones initiative, the federal
government invests in and partners with
high-poverty urban, rural, and tribal
communities to create jobs, increase
economic activity, improve educational
opportunities, leverage private
investment, and reduce violent crime.
Additional information about the
Promise Zones initiative can be found at
https://www.hud.gov/program_offices/
field_policy_mgt/fieldpolicymgtpz, and
questions can be addressed to
[email protected]. The federal
administrative duties pertaining to these
designations shall be managed and
executed by HUD for ten years from the
designation dates pursuant to sections 2
and 3 of the HUD Act, 42 U.S.C. 3531–
32, to assist the President in achieving
maximum coordination of the various
federal activities which have a major
effect upon urban community,
suburban, or metropolitan development;
to develop and recommend the
President policies for fostering orderly
growth and development of the Nation’s
urban areas; and to exercise leadership,
at the direction of the President, in
coordinating federal activities affecting
housing and urban development. To
facilitate communication between local
and federal partners, HUD proposes that
Promise Zone Lead Organizations
submit minimal reports and documents
to support collaboration and problem
solving between local and federal
partners. These reports will also assist
in communications and stakeholder
engagement, both locally and nationally.
Respondents: Fourteen Promise Zone
Lead Organizations.
