A. Overview of Information Collection

    Title of Information Collection: Congregate Housing Services 
Program.
    OMB Approved Number: 2502-0485.
    Type of Request: Extension of currently approved collection.
    Form Number: SF-424, 425, HUD-90003, HUD-90006, HUD-90198, HUD-
91180-A, HUD-91178-A.
    Description of the Need for the Information and Proposed Use: 
Completion of the Annual Report by grantees provides HUD with essential 
information about whom the grant is serving and what sort of services 
the beneficiaries receive using grant funds.
    The Summary Budget and the Annual Program Budget make up the budget 
of the grantee's annual extension request. Together the forms provide 
itemized expenses for anticipated program costs and a matrix of 
budgeted yearly costs. The budget forms show the services funded 
through the grant and demonstrate how matching funds, participant fees, 
and grant funds will be used in tandem to operate the grant program. 
Field staff approve the annual budget and request annual extension 
funds according to the budget. Field staff can also determine if 
grantees are meeting statutory and regulatory requirements through the 
evaluation of this budget.
    HUD will use the Payment Voucher to monitor use of grant funds for 
eligible activities over the term of the grant. The Grantee may 
similarly use the Payment Voucher to track and record their requests 
for payment reimbursement for grant-funded activities.
    Respondents: (i.e., affected public): Non-profit institutions.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 49.
    Estimated Number of Responses: 392.
