An Information Collection Request (ICR) is a federal agency's request for approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to collect information from the public.
Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), agencies must justify why the information is needed and how it will be used.
Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, or modify an information collection. Each ICR includes a description of the collection,
supporting materials and documentation (such as forms, surveys, or scripts), and proof that the agency has met the requirements of the PRA.
The ICR is submitted to the The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within OMB for review and approval. OIRA grants approval for a maximum of three years, after
which the collection must be renewed through a new ICR submission.
ICRs are publicly available on RegInfo.gov, and additional guidance can be found in the FAQs.
Note: Presidential Action influences are notated for ICRs received between January 20, 2025 and July 19, 2025.

Report to U.S. SSA by Person Receiving Benefits for a Child or Adult Unable to Handle Funds/Report to U.S. SSA
Key Information
Abstract
SSA uses Forms SSA-7161-OCR-SM and SSA 7162-OCR-SM to: (1) determine continuing entitlement to Social Security benefits; (2) correct benefit amounts for beneficiaries outside the United States; and (3) monitor the performance of representative payees outside the United States. This collection is mandatory as an annual (or every other year, depending on the country of residence) review for fraud prevention. In addition, the results can affect benefits by increasing or decreasing payment amount or by causing SSA to suspend or terminate benefits. SSA employees collect this information via paper form. The respondents are individuals living outside the United States who are receiving benefits on their own (or on behalf of someone else) under Title II of the Act. |

Federal Acknowledgment as an Indian Tribe, 25 CFR 83
Key Information
Abstract
Submission of this information allows the Office of Federal Acknowledgment (OFA), within the Office of the Assistant Secretary-Indian Affairs, to review groups’ documented petitions for the Federal acknowledgment as an Indian tribe. The acknowledgment regulations at 25 CFR 83 contain seven criteria that unrecognized groups seeking Federal acknowledgment as Indian tribes must demonstrate that they meet. Information collected from petitioning groups under these regulations provide anthropological, genealogical, and historical data used by the AS-IA to establish whether a petitioning group has the characteristics necessary to be acknowledged as a continuously existing Indian tribe. Federal acknowledgment establishes a government-to-government relationship with the United States. Respondents are not required to retain copies of the information submitted to OFA but will probably maintain copies for their own use; therefore, there is no recordkeeping requirement included in this information collection. |

| 202210-1545-010 | Energy Efficient Commercial Buildings Deduction (Form 7205) | TREAS/IRS | 2022-11-30 | 2026-02-28 | Revision of a currently approved collection
Energy Efficient Commercial Buildings Deduction (Form 7205)
Key Information
Abstract
Form 7205 (December 2022) is being created to allow taxpayers who own or lease a commercial building to claim under section 179D a deduction for a portion of the cost of installing energy-efficient commercial building property. Form 7205 consolidates deductions from other IRS forms and schedules; and provides information to support the deduction claimed. This form helps taxpayers understand how to calculate the deduction and increase taxpayer compliance. The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (P.L. 116-260), section 102(a), made the IRC section 179D deduction permanent. Notice 2008-40 clarifies and amplifies Notice 2006–52, 2006–1 C.B. 1175. Notice 2006–52 provides a process that allows a taxpayer who owns a commercial building and installs property as part of the commercial building’s interior lighting systems, heating, cooling, ventilation, and hot water systems, or building envelope to obtain a certification that the property satisfies the energy efficiency requirements of § 179D(c)(1) and (d) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Notice 2006–52 also provides for a public list of software programs that may be used in calculating energy and power consumption for purposes of § 179D, and allows software developers to be added to the list. Taxpayers are required by section 179D (statute) to certify each project for which they claim the 179D deduction. The IRS has not added to that burden in Notice 2008-40 but simply provided guidance on how to complete the certification process required by the statute. |

VA Form 21-2680 is used to determine eligibility for the aid and attendance and/or housebound benefit. The purpose of this examination is to record manifestations and findings pertinent to the question of whether the claimant is housebound (confined to the home or immediate premises) or in need of the regular aid and attendance of another person. The report should be in sufficient detail for the VA decision makers to determine the extent that disease or injury produces physical or mental impairment, that loss of coordination or enfeeblement affects the ability: to dress and undress; to feed themselves; to attend to the wants of nature; or keep themselves ordinarily clean and presentable. Findings should be recorded to show whether the claimant is blind or bedridden. Whether the claimant seeks housebound or aid and attendance benefits, the report should reflect how well they ambulate, where they go, and what they are able to do during a typical day. |

CONSOLIDATED LABELLING REQUIREMENTS FOR 49 CFR 565 and 567
Key Information
Abstract
This information collection request (ICR) is to request approval from OMB for reinstatement with modification of the previously approved information collection titled “Consolidated Labeling Requirements for 49 CFR 565 and 567.” Responding to this collection is mandatory and required by 49 CFR Part 565 and Part 567 for manufacturers of motor vehicles. This ICR covers five information collections. There are four information collections under part 565 and one under part 567. The first information collection in part 565 is the requirement for manufacturers to affix vehicle identification numbers (VINs) to all motor vehicles they produce that conform to specific requirements in part 565. The second information collection in part 565 is the requirement to obtain a manufacturer identifier (or identifiers) to be used to uniquely identify the manufacturer within the VIN of each motor vehicle. The third information collection in part 565 is a requirement for foreign manufacturers to submit to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) their manufacturer identifiers (this requirement does not apply to U.S. manufacturers because NHTSA issues manufacturer identifiers to these manufacturers). The fourth information collection in part 565 is a requirement to submit VIN-deciphering information to NHTSA. There is one information collection under part 567, which requires manufacturers to affix to each vehicle they manufacture permanent labels certifying the compliance of the motor vehicle. The VIN assignment and certification labeling information collections are mandatory, as-needed disclosure requirements and the submission of VIN-deciphering information is a mandatory reporting requirement when a manufacturer creates a new VIN-deciphering scheme (including whenever a manufacturer needs to update or otherwise made amendment to a previously-submitted VIN-deciphering scheme). The information collection for the submission of information necessary to obtain a manufacturer identifier and the requirement to submit manufacturer identifiers to NHTSA (for foreign manufactures) is required on occasion, before a manufacturer starts producing motor vehicles, when a manufacturer starts producing a new vehicle type, or when a manufacturer that has a low-volume manufacturer identifier needs to obtain a high-volume identifier. When NHTSA last received approval for this information collection request, the agency estimated that the annual burden for the information collection request was 60,542 hours and $12,016,260. NHTSA now estimates the annual burden to be 164,016 hours and $33,686,400. This is an increase of 103,474 hours and $21,670,140. The increase is almost entirely a result of NHTSA changing the way it estimates burden. However, a small part of the increase is a result of the additional replica vehicle manufacturers expected to be producing motor vehicles. |

Tribal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program Performance Reporting Form 2
Key Information
Abstract
Section 511 of the Social Security Act created the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program (MIECHV) and authorized the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) (in Section 511(h)(2)(A)) to award grants to Indian tribes (or a consortium of Indian tribes), tribal organizations, or urban Indian organizations to conduct an early childhood home visiting program. The legislation set aside 3 percent of the total MIECHV program appropriation for grants to tribal entities. The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Child Care, in collaboration with the Health Resources and Services Administration, Maternal and Child Health Bureau, awards grants for the Tribal MIECHV Program. The Tribal MIECHV grant awards support 5-year cooperative agreements to implement high-quality, culturally-relevant, evidence-based home visiting programs in at-risk Tribal communities. Tribal MIECHV grants, to the greatest extent practicable, are to be consistent with the requirements of the MIECHV grants to states and jurisdictions (authorized in Section 511(c)), and include conducting a needs assessment and establishing quantifiable, measurable benchmarks. Specifically, the MIECHV legislation requires State and Tribal MIECHV grantees to collect data to measure improvements for eligible families in six specified areas (referred to as "benchmark areas") that encompass the major goals for the program and are listed below: 1. Improved maternal and newborn health 2. Prevention of child injuries, child abuse, neglect, or maltreatment, and reduction in emergency department visits 3. Improvement in school readiness and achievement 4. Reduction in crime or domestic violence 5. Improvement in family economic self-sufficiency 6. Improvement in the coordination and referrals for other community resources and supports As part of their implementation plans, Tribal MIECHV grantees are required to propose a plan for meeting the benchmark requirements specified in the legislation and must report performance data to HHS, with improvement assessed at the end of Year 4 and Year 5 of their 5-year grants. (With the American Rescue Plan Act, 19 of the 23 grantees received an additional year of funding and will report a “Year 6 “ of performance data). The Tribal Home Visiting (HV) Form 2 provides a template for Tribal MIECHV grantees to report data on their progress in improving performance under the six benchmark areas, as stipulated in the legislation. This request is for an extension with no changes to the Tribal MIECHV Form 2. |

Tobacco Retailer Training Programs
Key Information
Abstract
FDA intends to issue regulations establishing standards for approved tobacco retailer training programs. In the interim, FDA published a guidance document which is intended to assist tobacco retailers to voluntarily implement effective training programs for employees. Until FDA promulgates regulations, the agency intends to use the lower maximum civil money penalties schedule for all retailers who violate the restriction of the sale and distribution of cigarettes and smokeless tobacco products, whether or not they have implemented a training program. FDA may consider further reducing the civil money penalty for retailers who have implemented a training program. Retailers who have received a Complaint for Civil Money Penalties or No-Tobacco Sale Order and who wish to submit evidence that they have a training program in place, for purposes of settlement negotiations only, may do so when filing an Answer to the Complaint. |

49 CFR Part 586, Replica Motor Vehicles
Key Information
Abstract
This is to request the Office of Management and Budget’s (OMB) approval and three-year clearance for the information collection titled, “49 CFR Part 586, Replica Motor Vehicles.” (OMB Control No. 2127-New). Responding to the collection would be mandatory for all replica vehicle manufacturers and entities seeking to register as a replica vehicle manufacturer. Entities that manufacture replica vehicles or seek to register as a replica motor vehicle manufacturer would be required to respond to the information collection. This information collection involves reporting (registration and annual reporting) and disclosure (labeling) requirements. The registration requirement would be a one-time information collection unless the replica vehicle manufacturer seeks to change the replica motor vehicles it manufactures. The reporting requirement for replica manufacturers would be an annual requirement and the labeling requirements would be met, as required, for each replica vehicle the respondent manufactures. Respondents would provide information about the replica vehicles that they seek to manufacture in its registration requirements and information about the replica vehicles they manufactured in the previous calendar year in the annual reports. The temporary label would alert prospective and actual purchasers of replica vehicles that the vehicle does not conform to the Federal motor vehicle safety standards. NHTSA would receive the registrations and annual reports and replica vehicle consumers will receive the information provided on the temporary labels. This information collection is necessary for NHTSA’s implementation of the replica motor vehicle exemption program. NHTSA will use the registration information in determining whether to approve manufacturers to produce exempted vehicles and to ensure that the manufacturers and the vehicles they intend to manufacture qualify for the exemption program. The annual report will be used for tracking and enforcement purposes and to allow manufacturers to indicate whether they will continue manufacturing exempt replica vehicles. The temporary labels are intended to inform purchasers of replica vehicles that the vehicle does not conform to all Federal motor vehicle safety standards. NHTSA estimates the total burden for this new information collection to be 460 hours and $4,000. |

Formative Research, Pretesting, and Customer Satisfaction of NCI's Communication and Education Resources (NCI)
Key Information
Abstract
This is a request for OMB to approve an extension for this generic submission for three years. As part of NCI’s mandate from Congress to disseminate information on cancer research, detection, prevention, and treatment, the Institute develops various messages and materials. Testing these messages and materials assesses their potential effectiveness in reaching and communicating with their intended audience while they are still in the developmental stage and can be revised. The formative research and pretesting process thus maximize NCI’s limited dollar resources for information dissemination and education. NCI also must ensure the relevance, utility, and appropriateness of the many educational programs and products that the Institute produces. Customer satisfaction studies help NCI identify modifications necessary to meet the needs of NCI’s various target audiences. |
