FSS Information Collection Requirements Reopened

On November 15, HUD re-opened a public comment period on the information collection requirements for the “Streamlining Implementation of Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act Changes to the Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) Program.” The information collection is related to the FSS proposed rule released in September 2020. HUD is not soliciting comment on any issues related to the proposed rule outside of information collection requirements.

HUD’s proposed information collection would require that all entities that operate an FSS program would have to update their Action Plans one time after the new rule becomes effective, and that PHAs would need to complete a monitoring self-review checklist for program compliance and reporting once every five years.
