SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: VA Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem Program.
OMB Control Number: 2900-0554 <a href="https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRASearch">https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRASearch</a>.
Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
Abstract: Public Law 109-461 provided permanent authority for VA's
Homeless Providers Grant and Per Diem (GPD) Program for homeless
Veterans. The categories of grants include per diem for non-capital
grants, special needs grants, and case management grants. The program
will not be awarding capital grants in the coming years. This factor,
along with historical program data on the actual number of applications
received, has resulted in a decrease in the anticipated number of
annual grant applications and associated annual burden hours. There are
no changes to the information being collected.
Funds appropriated to the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for
this program are expected to be significantly less than the total
amount requested by applicants. Therefore, information must be
collected to determine which applicants are eligible and to prioritize
applications for determining who will be awarded funds. VA does not
require applicants to use a VA Form to respond to the collection of
information. Rather, VA requires applicants to respond to the
collection of information as published in the Notice of Funding
Opportunity (NOFO) in standard business format, and they may use the
Federal-wide Standard Forms from the SF-424 family of forms. VA
provides the outline for the collection in the NOFO and uses the
standard business format to evaluate applicants for all the grant
programs under the statutory authority for VA to make grants.
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 89 FR 23637, April 4, 2024.
Affected Public: State, Local, and Tribal Governments.
Estimated Annual Burden: 10,000 hours.
Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 20 hours.
Frequency of Response: Once annually.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 500.
Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.

VA PRA Clearance Officer, Office of Enterprise and Integration, Data
Governance Analytics, Department of Veterans Affairs.
