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.

Abstract

In accordance with Section 16(h)(5) of the Food and Nutrition Act (FNA), as amended by section 4022 of the Agriculture Act of 2014, and 7 CFR 273.7(c)(17) the Department requires that State agencies report outcome data for the Supplemental Nutrition Employment Program (SNAP) Employment and Training (E&T) programs. In order for FNS to monitor the effectiveness of E&T programs State agencies are required to report outcome data on five separate reporting measures: (1) the number and percentage of E&T participants who retain employment 2 quarters and 4 quarters after completing E&T (2) the median wages for participants with earnings 2 quarters after completion of E&T (3) the number and percentage of participants that completed a training, education, work experience or on-the-job training component; (4) certain unique characteristics of SNAP E&T participants; and (5) additional reporting requirements for State agencies that pledge to serve all at-risk Able-bodied Adults without Dependents (ABAWDs). State agencies are also required to identify appropriate reporting measures for each proposed component that serves a threshold number of participants of at least 100 a year. State agencies identify the reporting measures for these components in State agencies’ E&T plans and report the outcome data to the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) through State agencies’ annual reports. State agencies are required to report outcome data annually.

Abstract

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (Pub. L. 111-148, enacted on March 23, 2010) as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111-152, enacted on March 30, 2010) are collectively referred to as the Affordable Care Act. The Affordable Care Act expands access to insurance affordability programs through improvements in Medicaid eligibility, enrollment simplification, the establishment of Affordable Insurance Exchanges ("Exchanges"), and coordination between Medicaid, the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and Exchanges. Relevant to this Statement, the Affordable Care Act promotes a high level of coordination, simplification, and data sharing among State and Federal agencies for the purpose of a seamless and streamlined eligibility system. The Affordable Care Act allows for significant use of Web-based technology to provide information to the public and facilitate application and renewal functions. It creates a "no wrong door" approach to insurance affordability programs so that individuals will not have to apply to multiple programs. Nor will they have to repeat the application process if they initially apply to a program for which they are not ultimately determined eligible. It also provides a simplified process for maintaining coverage through a streamlined renewal process. The provisions of the Affordable Care Act relevant to this Statement are effective January 1, 2014. The proposed requirements for the collection and reporting of information and recordkeeping (collectively known as information collections) generally relate to ensuring data sharing and coordination among State and Federal agencies, recordkeeping efforts among State agencies, and the development of Web-based systems and notices in support of the implementation of the Affordable Care Act.

Abstract

The Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (the Act) requires the Independent Living Services (ILS) Program Performance Report (PPR). The ILS PPR is submitted annually by the Designated State Entities (DSEs) and Statewide Independent Living Councils (SILCs) in every state that receives Part B funds. The ILS PPR serves as the main way for DSEs to fulfill their requirement to submit reports regarding financial assistance from the Administration for Community Living (ACL). The ILS PPRs are used by ACL to assess grantees’ compliance with Title VII of the Act, with 45 CFR part 1329 of the Code of Federal Regulations, and with applicable provisions of the HHS Regulations at 45 CFR part 75. Based on the review and analysis of PPRs, ACL provides technical assistance, assesses compliance, and grants and denies continuation of funding. The PPR is also used by ACL to design CIL and SILC training and technical assistance activities authorized by section 721 of the Act. See 29 U.S.C. § 721(b)(1) (which is 29 U.S.C. 796f(b)(1)); see 45 CFR 1329.24. The data is also used to meet the requirements of GPRAMA regarding performance measures. See 31 U.S.C. § 1116.

Abstract

The Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS) is an international survey of teachers and principals focusing on the working conditions of teachers and the teaching and learning practices in schools. The United States will administer TALIS for the third time in 2024, having participated in 2013 and 2018. TALIS 2024 is sponsored by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). TALIS is steered by the TALIS Governing Board (TGB), comprising representatives from the OECD member countries, and implemented internationally by organizations contracted by the OECD (referred to as the International consortium). In the U.S., TALIS 2024 is conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) of the Institute of Education Sciences, U.S. Department of Education. TALIS 2024 is focused on teachers; professional environment, teaching conditions, and their impact on school and teacher effectiveness. TALIS 2024 will address teacher training and professional development, teacher appraisal, school climate, school leadership, instructional approaches, pedagogical practices, and teaching experience with and support for teaching diverse populations. OECD has scheduled the main study to occur in the Northern hemisphere from February through March 2024 and in the Southern hemisphere from June through August 2024. To prepare for the main study, several TALIS countries will conduct pilot studies in February 2022; the U.S. will not participate. Countries will also conduct a field test in the first quarter of 2023, primarily to evaluate newly developed questionnaire items and school recruitment materials; the U.S. will participate in the field test. To meet the international data collection schedule for the field test, U.S. recruitment activities need to begin by August 2022 and U.S. questionnaires must be finalized by December 2022. TALIS 2024 includes the core TALIS teacher and principal surveys that are required for each participating country, as well as an optional Teacher Knowledge Survey (TKS). The TKS is intended to better understand the teacher pedagogical knowledge base at the national level. The US is including the TKS in the upcoming TALIS 2024 field test and will evaluate these results to determine the feasibility of including TKS as part of the US Main Study. The previous submission (OMB #1850-0888 v.8) requested approval for: (1) recruitment and pre-survey activities for the 2023 field test sample; (2) administration of the field test; and (3) school recruitment and pre-survey activities for the 2024 main study sample. That package was approved in August 2022. This submission requests approval for the final international versions of the principal and teacher instruments approved for the TALIS 2024 Field Test. The final U.S. adaptations of the 2024 core TALIS and TKS field test questionnaires that will be administered in the TALIS 2024 U.S. Field Test will be submitted to OMB as a non-substantive change request in Winter 2022/23.
