Abstract:
The information collection is necessary to enable the Federal Home Loan Banks (Banks) and, where appropriate, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) to determine whether a Bank member/respondent satisfies the statutory and regulatory requirements for capital stock purchase requirements to be a member of and to borrow from a Bank. Respondents include financial institutions that are eligible for Bank membership, and members that utilize Bank products and services, such as Bank advances.

Short Statement:
FHFA has decreased the estimated total annual burden hours to 20,245 from the 23,135 that were shown in the Supporting Statement submitted in connection with the 2020 renewal of this information collection. This decrease is due primarily to the fact that member consolidations are more frequent since 2020 and as a result, there has been a decline in membership. With fewer members in the Federal Home Loan Bank System, the annual burden hours decreased.
