A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Single Family Application for 
Insurance Benefits.
    OMB Approval Number: 2502-0429.
    Type of Request: Revision of currently approved collection.
    Form Numbers: HUD-9539, HUD-27011, HUD-50002, HUD-50012.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: FHA 
insurance is an important source of mortgage credit for low and 
moderate-income borrowers. It is essential that the Federal Housing 
Administration (FHA) maintain a healthy mortgage insurance fund through 
premiums charged to the borrower by FHA. Providing policy and guidance 
to the single family housing mortgage industry regarding changes in 
FHA's program is essential to protect the fund. This information 
collection is based on the claim activity involving FHA-insured 
mortgage loan servicing of foreclosed mortgage loans after the 
foreclosure sale. This is a revision to the currently approved 
collection due to program activity. With each form, the Public Burden 
Statement is updated.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit and individuals or 
households.
