    Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Form Number: HUD form 2510.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: 
Mortgagees of FHA-insured mortgages may receive mortgage insurance 
benefits upon assignment of mortgages to the Secretary. In connection 
with the assignment, legal documents (e.g., mortgage, mortgage note,

    HUD proposes to revise this document with clarifying changes and 
updates to reflect current HUD requirements and policies, including 
requiring electronic submission for legal review, as well as current 
practices in real estate, title insurance, hazard insurance and 
mortgage financing transactions. Requiring electronic submission 
reflects the current practices and preferences of respondents. Since 
HUD began accepting electronic submission, HUD has not received any 
physical submissions from respondents.
    In addition, sample documents reflecting existing HUD requirements 
and policies are being provided to assist with compliance with the 
Legal Instructions.
