This information collection involves mortgage loan servicers, "mortgagees" that service Federal Housing Administration "FHA" insured mortgage loans and the home owners, "mortgagors" who are involved with those activities. The information collection request for OMB review seeks to combine the requirements of an existing OMB collection under this collection.
The increased burden is due to the combined functions and information collection of currently approved collections. Also, it is based on the activity involving mortgage loan servicing of current, delinquent, defaulted, and foreclosed mortgage loans. Due to conditions in the banking industry, particularly acquisitions and mergers, the number of respondents servicing these mortgages has significantly decreased. As properties are sold or refinanced, and the mortgages retired, the number of mortgages on which the respondents report has also decreased but there has been an increase in loan activity which accounts for the significant increase in the number of responses.
