SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The Loan Review System (LRS) is a system developed by HUD for managing and overseeing HUD loans. This system plays a critical role in supporting HUD's mission of creating strong, sustainable, inclusive communities and quality affordable homes for all. It helps ensure that the funds allocated for these purposes are used effectively and responsibly. Its key functions include streamlining the loan review process, risk management, data management and analysis, compliance monitoring, and reporting. The system is designed to be user-friendly and integrates with other HUD systems, ensuring that loans comply with HUD regulations and supporting HUD's mission to provide quality affordable homes and sustainable communities. The retrieval practice was evaluated, and it was determined that records within the system are not retrieved by an individual's personal unique identifier that qualifies for as SORN under the Privacy Act. The Department's Federal Housing Administration (FHA) Case Number or Loan Review ID Number retrieval does not constitute a retrieval for the purpose of the Privacy Act. Records retrieved by FHA-approved lending institutions will continue to be maintained by LRS.

SYSTEM NAME AND NUMBER:

Loan Review System (LRS).

The previously published notice in the Federal Register [Docket Number 6009-N-01], on June 6, 2017, 82 FR 26705.
