Rural Housing Service 

Title: Single Family Housing 

Guaranteed Loan Program. 

OMB Control Number: 0575–0179. 

Summary of Collection: The Housing 

and Community Facilities Program 

(HCFP), hereinafter referred to as the 

‘‘Agency,’’ is a credit agency for the 

Rural Housing Service of the U.S. 

Department of Agriculture. The Agency 

offers supervised credit programs to 

build modest housing and essential 

community facilities in rural areas. This 

regulation prescribes the policy 

necessary to process Rural Housing loan 

guarantees to low- and moderate-income 

applicants. Section 517 (d) of Title V of 

the Housing Act of 1949, as amended, 

provides the authority for the Secretary 

of Agriculture to issue loan guarantees 

for the acquisition of new or existing 

dwellings and related facilities to 

provide decent, safe, and sanitary living 

conditions and other structures in rural 

areas. 

The purpose of the Single-Family 

Housing Guaranteed Loan Program 

(SFHGLP) is to assist low and moderateincome individuals and families in 

acquiring or constructing a single-family 

residence in designated rural areas with 

loans originated and serviced by private 

lenders. Eligibility for this program 

includes very low, low, and moderateincome families or persons whose 

income does not exceed 115 percent of 

the median income for the area, as 

determined by the Secretary. 

Need and Use of the Information: 

Information is collected from both a 

potential homebuyer and lender. To 

participate in the program, lenders must 

submit to standards which ensure the 

loan objectives of the SFHGLP are met. 

The lender submits qualifications to the 

Agency and enters into an agreement 

that outlines both the lender and 

Agency’s commitments and 

responsibilities under the guaranteed 

program. Information from a homebuyer 

includes financial documents such as 

confirmation of household income, 

assets and liabilities, a credit record, 

evidence the homebuyer has adequate 

repayment ability for the loan amount 

requested and if the condition and 

location of the property meet program 

guidelines. All information collected is 

vital for the Agency to determine if 

borrowers qualify for all assistance for 

which they are eligible. 

Description of Respondents: Business 

or other for-profit; State, Local or Tribal 

Government. 

Number of Respondents: 2,520. 

Frequency of Responses: Reporting: 

Monthly; Quarterly; Annually. 

Total Burden Hours: 1,327,476.
