Short Statement: HUD discontinued issuing Excel Tools for data collection after CY 2022 and exclusively collects the data using web-based forms starting in CY 2023. Web-based forms reduced the average time for respondents to complete all three forms by 1 hour and for HUD to review forms by 45 minutes, as HUD reported in the previous PRA submission at 85 FR 29473. The web-based forms include enhancements to improve data integrity and transparency, as well as improved formatting and instructions
