    Type of Review: Revision of a Currently Approved Collection.
    Abstract: VA Form 26-6382, The Statement of Purchaser or Owner 
Assuming Seller's Loan, is used to help determine eligibility for 
release of liability and substitution of entitlement when a VA 
guaranteed loan is assumed. The collection is authorized under 38, 
U.S.C., section 3702. Use of VA form 26-6382 (Statement of Purchaser or 
Owner Assuming Seller's Loan) has increased in recent years due to 
below-market interest rates on assumable VA loans. As a result, the 
number of respondents increased from 1,000 to 5,000, resulting in an 
increase in the total burden hours.
    Affected Public: Individuals and households.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 1,250 hours.
    Estimated Average Burden per Respondent: 15 minutes.
    Frequency of Response: One time.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 5,000 per annually.
    Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
