                    This Notice is soliciting comments from members of the public and affected agencies concerning the proposed collection of information to: (1) Evaluate whether the proposed collection is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information; (3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond; including the use of appropriate automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology,                     *e.g.,*                     permitting electronic submission of responses.                

This Notice also lists the following information:

*Title of Proposal:*                     Debt Resolution Program.                

*OMB Control Number, if applicable:*                     2502-0483.                

*Description of the need for the information and proposed use:*                     HUD is required to collect debt owed to the agency. As part of the collection process, demand for repayment is made on the debtor(s). In response, debtors opt to ignore the debt, pay the debt or dispute the debt. Disputes and offers to repay the debt result in information collections. Borrowers who wish to pay less than the full amount due must submit a Personal Financial Statement and Settlement Offer. HUD uses the information to analyze debtors' financial positions and then approve settlements, repayment agreements, and pre-authorized electronic payments to HUD. Borrowers who wish to dispute must provide information to support their position.                

*Agency form numbers, if applicable:*                     HUD-56141, HUD-56142, HUD-56146 and HUD-92090.                

*Estimation of the total numbers of hours needed to prepare the information collection including number of respondents, frequency of response, and hours of response:*                     The number of burden hours is 854. The number of respondents is 850, the number of responses is 2,790, the frequency of response is on occasion, and the burden hour per response is 1.49 hours.                

*Status of the proposed information collection:*                     This is an extension of a currently approved collection.                

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

Dated: August 7, 2009.
