Short Statement: The current burden inventory is 177,394 estimated annual respondents: 611,359 estimated annual responses and 295,850 estimated annual burden hours. With this revision the agency is seeking 202,013 estimated annual respondents, 696,204 estimated annual responses and 336,908 estimated annual burden hours. This reflects an increase in the number of estimated respondents 24,619, increase in the estimated number of responses 84,845 and an increase in the number of estimated annual burden hours 41,058 since the last OMB submission. The estimated number of respondents and burden hours have been updated to reflect these changes. Additional loan application volume over the past three years is the reason for the increased estimates for annual responses and burden hours.
