SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title: Collection and Transmission of Annual AMC Registry Fees.
    OMB Number: 3139-0008.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Abstract: States that register and supervise appraisal management 
companies (AMCs) are required to collect and transmit annual AMC 
registry fees to the ASC. 12 CFR part 1102, and in particular section 
1102.402, established the annual AMC registry fee for States that 
register and supervise AMCs as follows: (1) in the case of an AMC that 
has been in existence for more than a year, $25 multiplied by the 
number of appraisers who have performed an appraisal for the AMC on a 
covered transaction in such State during the previous year; and (2) in 
the case of an AMC that has not been in existence for more than a year, 
$25 multiplied by the number of appraisers who have performed an 
appraisal for the AMC on a covered transaction in such State since the 
AMC commenced doing business. Performance of an appraisal means the 
appraisal service requested of an appraiser by the AMC was provided to 
the AMC. Section 1102.403 requires AMC registry fees to be collected 
and transmitted to the ASC on an annual basis by States that register 
and supervise AMCs. Only those AMCs whose registry fees have been 
transmitted to the ASC are eligible to be on the AMC Registry for the 
12-month period following the payment of the fee. Section 1102.403 
clarified that States may align a one-year period with any 12-month 
period, which may, or may not, be based on the calendar year. The 
registration cycle is left to the individual States to determine.
    Current Action: There are no changes being made to this regulation.
    Affected Public: States, businesses, or other for-profit 
organizations.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 389 AMCs, 49 States. Based on a 
review of AMC Registry data as of September 14, 2023, there are 
approximately 389 distinct AMCs listed on the AMC Registry as reported 
by 49 States. Therefore, we have changed the estimated number of AMCs 
from 350 to 389. Currently 50 States have AMC Programs with 49 States 
reporting data to the AMC Registry.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: For States--We estimate that a 
State will spend approximately 60 hours annually submitting data to the 
ASC.
    For AMCs--5,145 hours. This estimate has increased from 4,437. As 
of September 14, 2023, there were 5,147 active AMC entries on the AMC 
Registry. We estimate that it takes each AMC one hour to report its 
data to each State in which the AMC is registered. Assuming an average 
of 105 AMCs per State, this would total 5,145 active AMCs in 49 States.
    Frequency of Response: Event generated.
