SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title of Collection: Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (Regulation C).
    OMB Control Number: 3170-0008.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved information 
collection.

[[Page 8843]]

    Affected Public: Individuals and households.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 136.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 1,510,960.
    Abstract: The Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) requires certain 
depository institutions and for-profit, non-depository institutions to 
collect, report, and disclose data about originations and purchases of 
mortgage loans. Additionally, these institutions must report mortgage 
loan applications that do not result in originations (for example, 
applications that are denied or withdrawn). The Bureau's Regulation C 
(12 CFR part 1003) implements HMDA. The purpose of the information 
collection is:
    <bullet> To help determine whether financial institutions are 
serving the housing needs of their communities;
    <bullet> To assist public officials in distributing public-sector 
investment so as to attract private investment to areas where it is 
needed; and
    <bullet> To assist in identifying possible discriminatory lending 
patterns and enforcing antidiscrimination statutes.
    Request for Comments: The CFPB published a 60-day Federal Register 
notice on December 10, 2025 (90 FR 57184) under Docket Number: CFPB-
2025-0049. The CFPB is publishing this notice and soliciting comments 
on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the 
proper performance of the functions of the CFPB, including whether the 
information will have practical utility; (b) The accuracy of the CFPB's 
estimate of the burden of the collection of information, including the 
validity of the methods and the assumptions used; (c) Ways to enhance 
the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; 
and (d) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
respondents, including through the use of automated collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology. Comments submitted 
in response to this notice will be reviewed by OMB as part of its 
review of this request. All comments will become a matter of public 
record.

Anthony May,
Paperwork Reduction Act Officer, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
