Change Requests

What is an ICR?

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.

When are they submitted?

Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, 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.

Where to find an ICR?

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.

Anti-Money Laundering Regulations for Residential Real Estate Transfers

Key Information

Abstract

FinCEN is issuing this statement to support its request that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approve the Real Estate Report (RER) — the form that will be used to collect information about certain residential real estate (RRE) transfers, as required by the Anti-Money Laundering Regulations for Residential Real Estate Transfers final rule, hereafter referred to as the Residential Real Estate Rule (RRE Rule). FinCEN issued the RRE Rule on August 29, 2024, and the RRE Rule has an effective date of December 1, 2025. Briefly, the RRE Rule requires certain persons involved in real estate closings and settlements (reporting persons) to submit reports to FinCEN and keep records on certain non-financed transfers of residential real property. Reporting from the RRE Rule is expected to curtail the ability of illicit actors to launder illicit proceeds anonymously through transfers of residential real property, which threatens U.S. economic and national security. More broadly, this reporting is expected to assist the U.S. Department of the Treasury (Treasury), law enforcement, and national security agencies in addressing illicit finance vulnerabilities in the U.S. residential real estate sector. The RRE Rule describes the circumstances in which a report must be filed, who must file a report, what information must be provided, and when a report is due.

Practitioner Conduct and Discipline

Key Information

Abstract

The Director of the USPTO has the authority to establish regulations governing the conduct and discipline of agents, attorneys, or other persons representing applicants and other parties before the USPTO (35 U.S.C. § 2 and §§ 32–33). The USPTO Rules of Professional Conduct (Rules), set forth in subpart D, part 11 of title 37 of the Code of Federal Regulations, prescribe the manner in which agents, attorneys, and other persons (collectively, ‘‘practitioners’’) representing applicants and other parties before the USPTO should conduct themselves professionally. Part 11 outlines practitioners’ responsibilities for recordkeeping and reporting violations or complaints of misconduct to the USPTO. Subpart C of part 11 sets forth the manner by which the USPTO investigates misconduct and imposes discipline. The USPTO Rules of Professional Conduct require all practitioners to maintain complete records of all funds, securities, and other properties of clients coming into his or her possession, and to render appropriate accounts to the client regarding the funds, securities, and other properties of clients coming into the practitioner’s possession, collectively known as ‘‘client property.’’ These recordkeeping requirements are necessary to maintain the integrity of client property. State bars require attorneys to perform similar recordkeeping. Part 11 also requires a practitioner to report knowledge of certain violations of the USPTO Rules of Professional Conduct to the USPTO. The OED Director may, after notice and opportunity for a hearing, suspend, exclude, or disqualify any practitioner from further practice before the USPTO based on non-compliance with the USPTO Rules of Professional Conduct. Practitioners who have been excluded or suspended from practice before the USPTO, practitioners transferred to disability inactive status, and practitioners who have resigned must maintain records of their compliance with the suspension or exclusion order, transfer to disability inactive status, or resignation. These records are necessary to demonstrate eligibility for reinstatement. Reports of alleged violations of the USPTO Rules of Professional Conduct are used by the Director of OED to conduct investigations and disciplinary hearings, as appropriate. This information collection covers the various reporting and recordkeeping requirements set forth in Part 11 for practitioners representing applicants and other parties before the USPTO. Also covered are petitions for reinstatement for suspended or excluded practitioners and the means for reporting violations or complaints of misconduct to the USPTO.

Abstract

The Black Lung Benefits Act (BLBA), 30 U.S.C. 901 et seq., may require parties to exchange all medical information about the miner they develop in connection with a claim for benefits, including information parties do not intent to submit as evidence in the claim. BLBA regulations help protect a miner's health, assist unrepresented parties, and promote accurate benefit determinations. The potential parties to a BLBA claim include the benefits claimant, the responsible coal mine operator and its insurance carrier, and the Director of OWCP. Under BLBA, a party of a party's agent who receives medical information about the miner must send a copy to all other parties within 30 days after receipt or, if a hearing before an administrative law judge has already been scheduled, at least 20 days before the hearing. The exchanged information is entered into the record of the claim only if a party submits it into evidence.

Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) Services for Survivors of Torture (SOT) Program Data Points (PDP) and Performance Progress Reports (PPR)

Key Information

Abstract

The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) intends to collect demographic, programmatic, and outcome data on Services for Survivors of Torture (SOT) grant recipients and the clients they serve. This collection of information is necessary for grant monitoring and is authorized under Section 5(a) of the "Torture Victims Relief Act of 1998," Pub. L. 105-320 (22 U.S.C. § 2152 note) Assistance for Treatment of Torture Victims. ORR will collect these data on the new cohort of Services for SOT grant recipients. Grant recipients submit aggregated data on new and continuing clients annually, including demographic information, characteristics related to experiences of torture, services received, and well-being across six outcome domains. Grant recipients will also provide information about community attendance at trainings and pro-bono services donated to the program. This data collection will allow ORR to learn more about the populations served by SOT grant recipients; the types and effectiveness of services provided; methods, challenges, and facilitators of implementing services; and grant recipients’ progress towards programmatic goals. The data collected will also be used for collaborative research projects to provide technical assistance to grant recipients. A summary of the information collected will be used by ORR in reports to stakeholders, including a required report to Congress, and in responses to funding requests. In January 2025, the current Administration released multiple Executive Orders (EO) and memoranda requiring updates to information collections that request gender and/or gender identity, to only request “Sex” with the options Male/Female. Additionally, presidential actions focused on the removal of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI)-specific activities. To be responsive to the new administration, ACF is submitting change requests for a number of implicated information collections. This request is specific to updates related to a recent presidential action, as detailed in the accompanying Justification for a NonSubstantive Change Memo.

Notice for Health Reimbursement Arrangements Integrated with Individual Health Insurance Coverage

Key Information

Abstract

On June 21, 2018, the Department published the Definition of Employer under Section 3(5) of ERISA—Association Health Plans final rule. On August 3, 2018, the Department of Labor, HHS and the Treasury Department (the Departments) published the Short-Term, Limited-Duration Insurance final rule. These final rules remove the prohibition on integrating health reimbursement arrangements (HRAs) with individual health insurance coverage, if certain conditions are met. The final rules also set forth conditions under which certain HRAs are as limited excepted benefits. In addition, the Treasury Department and the IRS finalized rules regarding premium tax credit (PTC) eligibility for individuals offered coverage under an HRA integrated with individual health insurance coverage, and DOL finalized a safe harbor to provide HRA plan sponsors with assurance that the individual health insurance coverage that is integrated with an HRA would not become part of an ERISA plan if the conditions of the safe harbor are met. Finally, HHS finalized rules that provide a special enrollment period in the individual market for individuals who gain access to an HRA that is integrated with individual health insurance coverage or who are provided a qualified small employer health reimbursement arrangement (QSEHRA). The following five information Collections are contained in the final rules: (1) Verification of Enrollment in Individual Coverage; (2) HRA Notice to Participants; (3) Notice to Participants that Individual Policy is not Subject to Title I of ERISA; (4) Participant Notification of Individual Coverage HRA of Cancelled or Discontinued Coverage; (5) Notice for Excepted Benefit HRAs. These information collections notify the HRA that participants are enrolled in individual health insurance coverage, help individuals understand the impact of enrolling in an HRA on their eligibility for the PTC, and help individuals understand that coverage is not subject to the rules and consumer protections of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA).

Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Quarterly Performance and Management Reports

Key Information

Abstract

OCS implemented LIHEAP quarterly reporting helps strengthen the program and improve our ability to highlight the impact LIHEAP is having on households across the program. The quarterly reports help OCS track key information in near real time. Previously, OCS did not receive comprehensive performance and management data until approximately three months after the end of each federal fiscal year. The LIHEAP Quarterly Report assists OCS in receiving data and information about LIHEAP during the federal fiscal year. This almost real time data is particularly important this year as LIHEAP grant recipients both administer historical levels of LIHEAP funding and develop and implement plans to reach the most vulnerable households amidst ongoing energy price increases. These reports are critical in helping us address challenges in a timely manner including unmet T/TA needs, approaching obligation deadlines, and challenges related to outreach and intake such as reaching newly eligible populations. The LIHEAP Carryover and Reallotment Report (CRR) is used for the collection of data about timely obligation of LIHEAP regular block grant, reallotted, and supplemental funds and reporting funds for carryover and reallotment. ACF is working to submit a revision request for the LIHEAP CRR (OMB #0970-0106) but will not be able to submit it before its current expiration date of June 30, 2025. ACF is in the process of getting the first notice published in the Federal Register, once HHS approves publication. The next CRR report is usually due from grant recipients on August 1st. Since the 60-day comment period has not begun, we will not have approval for the reinstatement of the CRR by that date. The August 1st requirement for this data submission is part of the statute and cannot be moved. ACF would like to propose an interim solution for this year that allows us to gather necessary information in a timely way, meet statutory requirements, and reduce burden on grant recipients. The Office of Community Services currently receives the Unobligated Balance for LIHEAP funds based on the Q4 submissions of the LIHEAP Quarterly Report (0970-0589). ACF would like to make an update to the Q3 report to add an element for respondents to provide the Estimated Unobligated Balance of Funds through September 30th. The purpose and use of the information would be in line with the purpose and use of information collected for the Quarterly Reports, which is for the purpose of Training and Technical Assistance.

Management and Protection of the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska - Recommendations for Special Reserve Areas (43 CFR 2361.2-2)

Key Information

Abstract

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is proposing to rescind the current regulations for Management and Protection of the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska in 43 CFR Part 2360 and return to the status quo under the rule promulgated in 1977 in 43 CFR Part 2360. The proposed rule would revised information collection requirements pertaining to Special Areas (SAs) in the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska (Reserve). The proposed rule would involve one (1) information collection at 43 CFR 2361.1(d) regarding recommendations for the designation of land as a SA in the Reserve. This information collection requirement slightly revises the existing requirement for SA recommendations. The RIN for this proposed rule is 1004-AF02.

National Eye Institute’s Intramural Research ProgramApplication Form for electronic Individual Development Plan (eIDP)

Key Information

Abstract

This is to request approval for the continued use of an electronic Individual Development Plan (eIDP), with an exit survey. Completing an eIDP is a crucial step in a trainees’ professional development and is a standard in graduate and postdoctoral education. An IDP is an effective tool for trainees to think about their career goals and skills needed to achieve them during their time at the NEI. Trainees work together with their research mentor to organize and describe their research projects, consider career paths, and set training goals and expectations. The information provided by the trainee on their proposed project, for example, helps their mentor judge the merits and feasibility of said project, helping identify problems early on and prevent possible delays. As research training at the NIH is time-limited (for example, postdoctoral fellows can only stay five years without special permission) and the types of research emphasized at the NIH and NEI are high-risk/high-reward projects that typically span much of the trainee’s tenure, the use of the project section in the eIDP assists mentors and mentees in aligning their goals and has ensured that projects are well thought out and planned to avoid delays. Additionally, in case of a dispute on the direction of a project, the mentor and mentee can refer back to what’s proposed within the eIDP.
