A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Low-Income Housing Tax Credit 
(LIHTC) Data Collection.
    OMB Approval Number: 2528-0320.
    Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Form Number: HUD-52695; HUD-52697.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: 
Section 2835(d) of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act, or HERA, 
(Public Law 110-289, approved July 30, 2008) amends Title I of the U.S. 
Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. 1437 et seq.) (1937 Act) to add a new 
section 36 (codified as 42 U.S.C. 1437z-8) that requires each state 
agency administering tax credits under section 42 of the Internal 
Revenue Code of 1986 (low-income housing tax credits or LIHTC) to 
furnish HUD, not less than annually, information concerning the race, 
ethnicity, family composition, age, income, use of rental assistance 
under section 8(o) of the U.S. Housing Act of 1937 or other similar 
assistance, disability status, and monthly rental payments of 
households residing in each property receiving such credits through 
such agency.
    New section 36 requires HUD to establish standards and definitions 
for the information to be collected by state agencies and to provide 
states with technical assistance in establishing systems to compile and 
submit such information and, in coordination with other federal 
agencies administering housing programs, establish procedures to 
minimize duplicative reporting requirements for properties assisted 
under multiple housing programs.
