SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Authority: Public Law 104-13; 44 U.S.C. 3501-3521. *Title:* Financial Statement. *OMB Control Number:* 2900-0047. *Type of Review:* Extension of a currently approved collection. *Abstract:* The major use of the form is to determine a borrower's financial condition in connection with efforts to reinstate a seriously defaulted, guaranteed, insured, or portfolio loan. In addition, the form is used in determining the financial feasibility of a veteran or service member to obtain a home with the assistance of a Specially Adapted Housing Grant under 38 U.S.C., Chapter 21. Also, VA Form 26-6807 may be used to establish eligibility of homeowners for aid under the Homeowners Assistance Program, Public Law 89-754, which provides assistance by reducing losses incident to the disposal of homes when military installations at which the homeowners were employed or serving are ordered closed in whole or in part. Finally, the form is used in release of liability and substitution of entitlement cases. Under the provisions of 38 U.S.C. 3714, the Department of Veterans Affairs
(VA)may release original veteran obligors from personal liability arising from the original guaranty of their home loans, or the making of a direct loan, provided purchasers/assumers meet the necessary requirements, among which is qualifying from a credit standpoint. Substitution of entitlement is authorized by 38 U.S.C. 3702(b)(2) and prospective veteran-assumers must also meet the creditworthiness requirements. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The **Federal Register** Notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of information was published at Vol. 82, No. 51 on March 17, 2017, page 14278. *Affected Public:* Individuals and households. *Estimated Annual Burden:* 2,250 hours. *Estimated Average Burden per Respondent:* 45 minutes. *Frequency of Response:* On occasion. *Estimated Number of Respondents:* 3,000.
