A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Project Approval for Single-Family 
Condominiums.
    OMB Approval Number: 2502-0610.
    Type of Request: Revision of currently approved collection.
    Form Number: HUD-9991A-LL, FHA Condominium Loan Level 
Certification; HUD-9991B-SUA, FHA Condominium Single-Unit Approval 
Questionnaire & Certification; HUD-9992, FHA Condominium Project 
Approval Questionnaire; HUD-92544, Warranty of Completion of 
Construction; HUD-92541, Builder's Certification of Plans,

    Description of the need for the information and proposed use: This 
collection package seeks to renew and revise collection forms, HUD-9992

project approval applications, HUD-9991A-LL, FHA Condominium Loan Level 
Certification to process loan level approvals and the HUD-9991B-SUA, 
FHA Single-Unit Approval Questionnaire & Certification to process 
single-unit approvals. These forms are needed to determine if a 
condominium project is eligible for FHA project approval and if a unit 
in an approved or unapproved condominium project is eligible for FHA-
insured financing. The existing HUD-9992, FHA Condominium Project 
Approval Questionnaire and the HUD-9991, FHA Condominium Loan Level/

questionnaires more adaptable to future policy changes and to provide 
clarity without increasing the public burden. HUD is seeking feedback 
for sections of the HUD-9992 pertaining to Financial Stability and 
Controls that relate to Special Assessments, Deferred Maintenance, and 
independent sustainability of a completed phase under Legal Phasing.

requirements.
