Title of Proposal: Ginnie Mae Mortgage-Backed Securities Guide 5500.3, Revision 1 (Forms and Electronic Data Submissions).

OMB Control Number, if applicable: 2503-0033.

Description of the need for the information and proposed use: Ginnie Mae's Mortgage-Backed Securities Guide 5500.3, Revision 1 (“Guide”) provides instructions and guidance to participants in the Ginnie Mae Mortgage-Backed Securities (“MBS”) programs (“Ginnie Mae I and Ginnie Mae II”). Under the Ginnie Mae I program, securities are backed by single-family or multifamily loans. Under the Ginnie Mae II pr.hgram securities are only backed by single-family loans. Both the Ginnie Mae I and II MBS are modified pass-through securities. The Ginnie Mae II multiple Issuer MBS is structured so that small issuers, who do not meet the minimum number of loans and dollar amount requirements of the Ginnie Mae I MBS, can participate in the secondary mortgage market. In addition, the Ginnie Mae II MBS permits the securitization of adjustable rate mortgages (“ARMs”).

Description of Proposed New Requirements: Due to the elimination of the application used for Fingerprint Enrollment used by Ginnie Mae issuers and document custodians to access the GinnieNET system, Ginnie Mae is revising our Appendix III-29 to include the following:

The name of the appendix will be changed to: Ginnie Mae Systems Access Appendix will have six (6) clearing defined sections. They are as follows:

Appendix III-29: Instructions: Incorporates language to make the Appendix applicable to Ginnie Mae's GinnieNET system as well as the Ginnie Mae GMEP system. It clarifies the relationship of the Appendix to Ginnie Mae form HUD 11708.

Appendix III-29 (A): Issuer Security Officer Registration: Incorporates language to make the Appendix applicable to Ginnie Mae's GinnieNET system as well as the Ginnie Mae GMEP system.

Appendix III-29 (B): User Registration for Issuer Only: Incorporates language to ensure the user acknowledgements and signed rules of behavior the encompass the use of the GinnieNET system. Adding a Ginnie NET section with two (2) check boxes to the following types of GinnieNET functions: GinnieNET RSA SecurID Token Holder and GinnieNET User.

Appendix III-29 (C): Custodian Security Officer Registration: Incorporates language to make the Appendix applicable to Ginnie Mae's GinnieNET system as well as the Ginnie Mae GMEP system.

Appendix III-29 (D): Custodian User Registration: Incorporates language to ensure the user acknowledgements and signed rules of behavior the encompass the use of the GinnieNET system. Adding a check box for GinnieNET SecurID Token Holder.

Appendix III-29 (E): RSA SecurID Token Request: New form to be used by Ginnie Mae Issuers and Document Custodians to obtain the required RSA Token and identify user access.

Appendix III-13: Name being changed from Electronic Data Interchanges System Agreement to Electronic Data Transfer Agreement Section 4.7: Choice of Law: will add: and Law of the District of Columbia.

The addition of the new sections and increase in Appendix III-29 is the reason for the increase of burden hours. There is no increase in burden hours with regard to Appendix III-13.

There are 15 forms and appendices in our collection which are volume driven rather than participant driven: these have increased as our portfolio has grown.

Included in the Guide are the appendices, forms, and documents necessary for Ginnie Mae to properly administer its MBS programs.

Agency form numbers, if applicable: 11700, 11701, 11702, 11704, 11705, 11706, 11707, 11708, 11709, 11709-A, 11710A, 1710-B, 1710-C, 11710D, 11710E, 11711-A, 11711-B, 11714, 11714-SN, 11720, 11715, 11732, 11785
