Overview of This Information 

Collection 

(1) Type of Information Collection: 

Extension, Without Change, of a 

Currently Approved Collection. 

(2) Title of the Form/Collection: 

Petition for Qualifying Family Member 

of a U–1 Nonimmigrant. 

(3) Agency form number, if any, and

status or seek immigrant visas, the U– 

1 nonimmigrant who has been granted 

adjustment of status must file an 

immigrant petition on behalf of the 

qualifying family member using Form I– 

929. Form I–929 is necessary for USCIS 

to make a determination that the 

eligibility requirements and conditions 

are met regarding the qualifying family 

member. 

(5) An estimate of the total number of 

respondents and the amount of time 

estimated for an average respondent to 

respond: The estimated total number of 

respondents for the information

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

notice informs the public that HUD is 

seeking approval from OMB for the 

information collection described in 

Section A. 

A. Overview of Information Collection 

Title of Information Collection: 

Elements for the Annual MTW Plan and 

Annual MTW Report. 

OMB Approval Number: 2577–0216. 

Type of Request: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Form Number: 50900. 

Description of the need for the 

information and proposed use: 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, the 

Moving to Work (MTW) PHAs that are 

subject to the Standard MTW 

Agreement, the Annual MTW Plan and 

Annual MTW Report (also known as the 

HUD Form 50900) are submitted in lieu 

of the standard annual and 5 year PHA 

plans. 

The Standard MTW Agreement was 

developed in 2007 and was transmitted 

to the existing MTW agencies in January 

2008. As additional MTW PHAs were 

selected they too were provided with 

the Standard MTW Agreement. 39 MTW 

PHAs (known as the ‘‘Initial’’ MTW 

PHAs) currently operate under this 

agreement. In 2016, HUD extended the 

term of the Standard Agreement to the 

end of each agency’s 2028 Fiscal Year 

(FY). 

The HUD Form 50900 is a required 

element as part of the Standard MTW 

Agreement and contains important 

information regarding the MTW PHA’s 

upcoming FY activities and a 

retrospective look back at the MTW 

PHA’s preceding FY. HUD collects the 

information in this form in order to 

evaluate the impacts of MTW activities, 

accurately and timely respond to 

congressional and other inquiries 

regarding outcome measures, and 

identify promising practices learned 

through the MTW demonstration. 

Revisions are being made to the HUD 

Form 50900 to reduce the reporting and 

administrative burden on MTW PHAs. 

All standard metrics within the HUD 

Form 50900 that were previously 

required for MTW activities will be 

eliminated, though they will remain 

optional for MTW PHAs to report. In 

addition to eliminating previously 

required standard metrics, MTW PHAs 

will now have the option to share an 

annual narrative, self-reported PHA 

data, and participant success stories. In 

lieu of the agency-reported standard 

metrics, HUD will pull data already 

reported by the agencies through 

required HUD systems. This will reduce 

burden on the agencies. 

Through the Annual MTW Plan and 

Report, each MTW PHA will continue to 

inform HUD, its residents and the 

public of the PHA’s mission for serving 

the needs of low-income and very lowincome families, and the PHA’s strategy 

for addressing those needs. The Annual 

MTW Plan, like the Annual PHA Plan, 

provides an easily identifiable source by 

which residents, participants in tenantbased programs, and other members of 

the public may locate policies, rules, 

and requirements concerning the PHA’s 

operations, programs, and services. 

The appropriations act in 2016 

authorized an additional 100 MTW slots
