3XUSRVH This form provides HUD with a certified
report of all previous participation in HUD
multifamily housing projects by those parties making
application. The information requested in this form is
used by HUD to determine if you meet the standards
established to ensure that all principal participants in
HUD projects will honor their legal, financial and
contractual obligations and are acceptable risks from
the underwriting standpoint of an insurer, lender or
governmental agency. HUD requires that you certify
your record of previous participation in HUD/USDA-
FmHA, State and Local Housing Finance Agency
projects by completing and signing this form, before
your project application or participation can be
approved.
HUD approval of your certification is a necessary
precondition for your participation in the project and
in the capacity that you propose. If you do not file this
certification, do not furnish the information requested
accurately, or do not meet established standards, HUD
will not approve your certification.
Note that approval of your certification does not
obligate HUD to approve your project application,
and it does not satisfy all other HUD program
requirements relative to your qualifications.

Form HUD-2530 must be completed and signed by all
principals applying to participate in HUD multifamily
housing projects, including those who have no
previous participation. The form must be signed and
filed by all principals and their affiliates who propose
participating in the HUD project. Use a separate form
for each role in the project unless there is an identity
of interest.
Principals include all individuals, joint ventures,
partnerships, corporations, trusts, non-profit
organizations, any other public or private entity that
will participate in the proposed project as a sponsor,
owner, prime contractor, turnkey developer,
managing agent, nursing home administrator or
operator, packager, or consultant. Architects and
attorneys who have any interest in the project other
than an arm’s length fee arrangement for professional
services are also considered principals by HUD.
In the case of partnerships, all general partners
regardless of their percentage interest and limited
partners having a 25 percent or more interest in the
partnership are considered principals. In the case of
public or private corporations or governmental
entities, principals include the president, vice
president, secretary, treasurer and all other executive
officers who are directly responsible to the board of
directors, or any equivalent governing body, as well
as all directors and each stockholder having a 10
percent or more interest in the corporation.
Affiliates are defined as any person or business
concern that directly or indirectly controls the policy
of a principal or has the power to do so. A holding or
parent corporation would be an example of an affiliate
if one of its subsidiaries is a principal.

affiliates must personally sign the certificate except in
the following situation. When a corporation is a
principal, all of its officers, directors, trustees and

the same record to report. The officer who is
authorized to sign for the corporation or agency will
list the names and title of those who elect not to sign.
However, any person who has a record of
participation in HUD projects that is separate from
that of his or her organization must report that activity
on this form and sign his or her name. The objective
is IXOO disclosure.

not need to be listed on form HUD-2530: Public
