Title: Federal Housing Administration (FHA): Standardizing Method of Payment for FHA Insurance Claims (FR-5805) 
Abstract:

This final rule is a cost-savings measure to update HUD's regulations regarding the payment of FHA insurance claims in debentures. Section 520(a) of the National Housing Act affords the Secretary discretion to pay insurance claims in cash or debentures. Although HUD has given mortgagees the option to elect payment of FHA insurance claims in debentures in some sections of HUD's regulations, HUD has not paid an FHA insurance claim under these regulations using debentures in approximately 10 years. This final rule amends applicable FHA regulations to bring consistency in determining the method of payment for FHA insurance claims.
