Title of Proposal: National LIHTC Data Collection and Analysis.
OMB Control Number, if applicable:
Description of the need for the information and proposed use: This
research will collect basic data on LIHTC project placed in service in
the years 1995 and 1996. A previous LIHTC data collection collected
similar data for the years 1987-1994. The 1987-1994 database is
available at www.huduser.org/lihtc/. The proposed collection would
update the database to aid analysis of LIHTC projects and serve as a
sampling frame for further research by HUD and others. The Department
anticipates using the same data collection instrument for projects
placed in service in 1997, 1998, and 1999, as these data become
available from state housing agencies.
Attached is the survey instrument OMB approved for the previous
LIHTC data collection. The Department anticipates collecting the same
information to the extent that the it is available from individual tax
credit agencies. Agencies will be allowed to provide the information
either on the form or on a computer file.
Agency form numbers, if applicable:
Members of affected public: 54 State and local housing agencies.
Estimation of the total numbers of hours needed to prepare the
information collection including number of respondents, frequency of
response, and hours of response: Number of respondents, 54; number of
responses per respondent, 1; total annual responses, 54; hours per
response, 24; and total hours, 1,296.
