*Title of Proposal:*                     Moving to Work Demonstration Reporting Form.

## Description of the Need for the Information and Proposed Use

                    The MTW Demonstration was authorized under Section 204 of the Omnibus Consolidated Rescissions and Appropriations Act of 1996 (Pub. L. 104-134, 110 Stat 1321), dated April 26, 1996. The MTW Demonstration initially permitted up to 30 PHAs to participate in the demonstration program. Nineteen PHAs were selected for participation in the MTW demonstration in response to a HUD Notice published in the                     **Federal Register**                     on December 18, 1996 and five of the 30 slots were filled through the Jobs-Plus Community Response Initiative. The 2009 and 2010 appropriations allowed HUD to add six additional PHA to participate in the MTW Demonstration. As part of HUD's 2009 budget appropriation (Section 236, title II, division I of the Omnibus Appropriations Act, 2009, enacted March 11, 2009), Congress directed HUD to add three agencies to the MTW program. As part of HUD's 2010 budget appropriation (Section 232, title II, division A of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2010, enacted December 16, 2009), Congress authorized HUD to add three agencies to the MTW demonstration. All public housing authorities (PHA) are required to submit a five (5) year plan and annual plans as stated in Section 5A of the 1937 Act, as amended; however, for PHAs with specific types of Moving to Work (MTW) demonstration agreements (35 at the time of submission of this request) the MTW annual plan and annual report are submitted in lieu of the standard annual and 5 year PHA plans.                

Revisions are being made to the 50900 form to streamline the Plan and Report submission process to increase the accuracy of data collection for the demonstration. Further, the form has been revised so that the respondents are not asked to provide duplicated information to the Department.

*Agency form numbers, if applicable:*                     HUD-50900.                

*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 4,200. The number of respondents is 35, the number of responses is 70, the frequency of response is two times a year (one for the Plan and one for the Report, and the burden hour per response is 40.5.                

*Status of the proposed information collection:*                     This is a revision of an existing collection.                

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

Dated: April 12, 2012.
