from Ms. Pollard. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

notice informs the public that HUD is 

seeking approval from OMB for the 

information collection described in 

Section A. 

The Federal Register notice that 

solicited public comment on the 

information collection for a period of 60 

days was published on July 6, 2023 at 

88 FR 43135. 

A. Overview of Information Collection 

Title of Information Collection: 

Mortgage Insurance Termination. 

Application for Premium Refund, 

Tracer Claimant Refund Case Request. 

OMB Approval Number: 2502–0414. 

OMB Expiration Date: 12/31/2023. 

Type of Request: Revision of currently 

approved OMB collection. 

Form Number: Mortgage Insurance 

Termination HUD–27050–A is 

submitted electronically; Application 

for Premium Refund HUD–27050–B. 

Description of the need for the 

information and proposed use: Mortgage 

Insurance Termination information is 

used by servicing mortgagees to comply 

with HUD requirements for reporting 

termination of FHA mortgage insurance. 

This information is used whenever FHA 

mortgage insurance is terminated and 

no claim for insurance benefits will be 

filed. This information is submitted on 

the internet or via EDI and is used to 

issue mortgage insurance premium 

(MIP) refunds directly to eligible 

claimants. This condition occurs when 

the form passes the criteria of certain 

system edits. As a result, the system 

generates a disbursement to the eligible 

claimant for the refund consisting of the 

unused portion of the paid premium. 

The information collected is used to 

update HUD’s Single Family Insurance 

System. The billing of mortgage 

insurance premiums is discontinued as 

a result of the transaction. Without this 

information, the premium collection/ 

monitoring function would be severely 

impeded and program data would be 

unreliable. Currently when the form is 

processed but does not pass the criteria 

in the series of system edits, the system 

generates the HUD 27050–B Application 

for Premium Refund for the claimant to 

complete and return to HUD for further 

processing of the refund. In general, a 

Premium Refund is the difference 

between the amount of prepaid 

premium and the amount of the 

premium that has been earned by HUD 

up to the time the mortgage is 

terminated. The Tracer Claimant Refund 

Case Request is used to collect 

information on the claimant from the 

tracer.
