*Description of the need for the information and proposed use:* The Department needs to collect this information to determine tenant eligibility for subsidized housing, establish priority among eligible applicants, and ensure compliance with fair housing laws, including the prohibition of racial discrimination in tenant selection and unit assignments. HUD also uses this information to verify tenant incomes, rents, and assistance to prevent improper payments to property owners. Additionally, HUD is required to report annually to Congress and the public on the race, ethnicity, and gender composition of subsidy program beneficiaries. Collecting this data is essential to promote fair practices in tenant assignments and maintain accountability in HUD Multifamily programs.
The Tenant Rental Assistance Certification System (TRACS) is a HUD computer system developed to automate manual procedures for collecting program data and incorporating automated financial controls. TRACS supports HUD's ability to collect and maintain accurate tenant and payment data, automate financial management, reduce manual processes and paperwork, forecast rental assistance budgets, and detect fraud, waste, and abuse in rental assistance programs. TRACS Release 2.0.3.A reflects modifications to comply with Congressional mandates, HUD regulations, and updates to OMB-approved forms. These changes include enhancements to data collection and form validation to improve accuracy and compliance. Notable changes include updates to HUD Form 27061-H (Race and Ethnic Data Reporting) under Executive Order 13515, HUD-91067 (Lease Addendum) to align with Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) protections, and HUD-50059 (Owner's Certification of Compliance with HUD's Tenant Eligibility and Rent Procedures) to reflect new program requirements such as the 811 PRA Demonstration Program and Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) data reporting. The electronic collection of this information is necessary to ensure compliance with updated policies and procedures.
