A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Housing Opportunities for Persons 
With AIDS (HOPWA) Program: Annual Grantee Performance Reporting 
Requirements and Competitive/Renewal Grant Project Budget Summary.
    OMB Approval Number: 2506-0133.
    Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection, 
without change.
    Form Number: HUD-40110-B, HUD-40110-C; and HUD-40110-D.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The 
HOPWA Competitive Application and Renewal of Permanent Supportive 
Housing Project Budget Summary, HUD-40110-B, is a grant applicant 
submission requirement for new competitive grant applications solicited 
through a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) and for all annual 
expiring renewal grant reviews. The budget form enables an evaluation 
of competitive grant applications to determine if the proposed project 
activity is feasible within the context of the overall program design 
inclusive of proposed planned and actual accomplishments. The Annual 
Progress Report (APR), HUD-40110-C, for competitive grantees, and the 
Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER), HUD-
40110-D, for formula grantees, are critical reporting requirements 
necessary to aggregate individual and national performance data, both 
program output data and program beneficiary outcomes to inform HUD's 
strategic management plan goals including requested reports to 
Congress. The data collection informs local communities on the use of 
these federal resources and in planning and coordination with other 
leveraged and available resources.
    Respondents: HOPWA program formula and competitive grant recipients 
and competitive/renewal grant applicants.
