HUD’s Race and Ethnic Data Reporting Form Updated with New Expiration Date

HUD has released an updated HUD Form 27061-H Race and Ethnic Data Reporting Form displaying an expiration date of June 30, 2017. The prior version expired on March 31, 2014. Owners should immediately implement the use of the updated form with all new applicant members/households.

PMCS strongly encourages owners include this form as an attachment to the Application – to be completed and returned along with the application. Do you know why?

The newly expanded Affirmative Fair Housing Marketing Plan (HUD Form 935.2A) now requires owners to report the race and ethnic demographic breakdown of applicants on the waiting list via Worksheet 1. By including this form with the application, you can efficiently gather this demographic information from your applicants, without documenting the statistics on the waiting list.
