A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Single Family Premium Collections 
Subsystem-Upfront.
    OMB Approval Number: 2502-0423.
    OMB Expiration Date: April 30, 2023.
    Type of Request: Revision.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: 
SFPCS-U strengthens HUD's ability to manage

[[Page 16650]]

and process upfront single-family mortgage insurance premium 
collections and corrections to submit data. It also improves data 
integrity for the Single Family Mortgage Insurance Program. FHA 
approved lenders use Automated Clearing House (ACH) applications for 
all transmissions with SFPCS-U. The collection of information is used 
to update HUD's Single Family Insurance System. The information 
collection is also used in calculating refunds due to former FHA 
mortgagors when they apply for homeowner refunds of the unearned 
portion of the mortgage insurance premium, 24 CFR 203.283, as 
appropriate. Without this information the premium collection/monitoring 
process would be severely impeded, and program data would be 
unreliable. In general, lender respondents use the ACH applications to 
remit the upfront premium through SFPCS-U to obtain mortgage insurance 
for the homeowner.
    Respondents: Business or other for profit.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 2,365.
    Estimated Number of Responses: 20,788.
    Frequency of Response: 8.79.
    Average Hours per Response: .15.
    Total Estimated Burden: 3,188.

B. Solicitation of Public Comment

affected parties concerning the collection of information described in 
section A on the following:
    (1) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for 
the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including 
whether the information will have practical utility; (2) The accuracy 
of the agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection 
information; (3) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of 
the information to be collected; and (4) Ways to minimize the burden of 
the collection of information on those who are to respond; including 
through the use of appropriate automated collection techniques or other 
forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission 
of responses. (5) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on those who are to respond, including the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

these questions.
