    Title of Proposal: Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS

Competitive/Renewal Grant Budget Summary Forms.
    Description of Information Collection: These forms provide HUD with 
vital information to assess program evaluation and measure performance 
outcomes for the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) 
program. Competitive/Renewal grant recipients submit an Annual Progress 
Report (APR) and Formula grantees submit the Consolidated Annual 
Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER). These annual reports provide 
HUD with information about program beneficiaries in addition to 
enabling HUD to assess the success of the HOPWA program through the 
three performance goals of housing stability, prevention of 
homelessness, and access to care and support. Information collected in 
the reports allows HUD to fulfill reporting requirements for internal 
reporting requirements, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and 
other entities.
    OMB Control Number: 2506-0133.
    Agency Form Numbers: HUD-40110-B HOPWA Competitive and Renewal of 
Permanent Supportive Housing Project Budget Summary; HUD-40110-C Annual 
Progress Report (APR); and HUD-40110-D Consolidated Annual Performance 
and Evaluation Report (CAPER).
    Members of Affected Public: Formula and competitive grant 
recipients of the Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA) 
program.
    Estimation of the total number of hours needed to prepare the 
information collection including number of respondents, frequency of 
response, and hours of response: APR (96 respondents and total annual 
responses x 55 hours per response = 5,280 hours) + CAPER (124 
respondents and total annual responses x 40 hours per response = 4,960 
hours) + HOPWA Competitive & Renewal of Permanent Supportive Housing 
Project Budget Summary (35 respondents and total annual responses x 12 
hours per response = 420 hours) = 10,660 hours.
    Status of the proposed information collection: Revision of 
currently approved collection.

    Authority: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 
Chapter 35, as amended.
