Departmental Offices *OMB Control Number:* 1505-NEW. *Type of Review:* New collection. *Title:* Hardest Hit Fund Application. *Abstract:* The Department of the Treasury (Treasury) established the Housing Finance Agency Innovation Fund for Hardest Hit Housing Markets (Hardest Hit Fund or HHF) in 2010, pursuant to the Emergency Economic Stabilization At of 2008 (12 U.S.C. 5201, *et seq.* ). The objective of HHF is to provide funding to the states that were most severely impacted by the foreclosure crisis. Funds are provided through Treasury's Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP), and are used by state housing finance agencies and their designated partners (collectively, HFAs) to help prevent foreclosure and stabilize state housing markets through programs tailored to local conditions. Recognizing the current and persistent need among states participating in HHF, Congress enacted legislation in December 2015, authorizing Treasury to commit up to $2 billion in additional TARP funds to that program. Treasury plans to allocate these funds among participating HHF states based on each area's current needs and ability to effectively utilize the additional funds. This information collection provides instructions for HFAs to apply for the funds. *Affected Public:* State, local, or tribal governments. *Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours:* 760.
