    OMB Approval Number: 2502-0536.
    Type of Request: Extension.
    Form Number: None.
    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: The 
Single Family Premium Collection Subsystem--Periodic (SFPCS-P) allows 
the lenders to remit the Periodic Mortgagee Insurance using funds

approved lenders use the automated Clearing House (ACH) application for 
all transmissions with SFPCS-P. The authority for this collection of 
information is specified in 24 CFR 203.264 and 24 CFR 203.269. In 
general, the lenders use the ACH application to remit the periodic 
premium payments through SFPCS-P for the required FHA insured cases and 
to comply with the Credit Reform Act.
