SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Authority: 38 U.S.C. 3731.
    Title: FNMA Forms 1004, 1004C, 1025, 2055 and 1075.
    OMB Control Number: 2900-0890.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Abstract: This information collection package seeks approval of 
VA's requirement that appraisers utilize certain industry-standard 
forms in completing an appraisal. 38 U.S.C. 3731 authorizes the VA 
Secretary to establish a panel of appraisers, prescribe qualifications 
for such appraisers, and determine reasonable value of a property, 
construction, repairs or alterations based on an appraisal report 
provided by a panel appraiser for the purpose of guaranteeing a loan.
    VA is requesting approval to authorize collection of these forms 
because accurate and thorough appraisal reporting is critical to the 
accuracy of underwriting for the mortgage process. Additionally, VA is 
looking to expand the list of authorized forms for use due to ongoing 
needs related to the pandemic. This collection of information provides 
a more thorough and complete appraisal of prospective VA-guaranteed 
properties ensuring that mortgages are acceptable for VA guarantee and 
thereby protect the interest of VA, taxpayers, and the Veterans Housing 
Benefit Program Fund. Policies and procedures for governing the VA 
appraisal program are set forth in Chapter 36, Title 38 of the CFR.
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number. The Federal Register Notice with a 
60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of 
information was published at: 86 FR 50595 on September 9, 2021, pages 
50595 and 50596.
    Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 10,833.
    Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 1 minute.
    Frequency of Response: One time.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 650,000.

    By direction of the Secretary.
Maribel Aponte,
VA PRA Clearance Officer, Office of Enterprise and Integration, Data 
Governance Analytics, Department of Veterans Affairs.
