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.

Income Withholding for Support (IWO)

Key Information

Abstract

OMB approved the IWO for an additional three years on August 23, 2023. During the OMB review period, OCSS found references to “child support enforcement (CSE) agencies” that were not updated to “child support agency (CSA)” as intended. As a result, the IWO program team submitted the forms for additional quality review, which resulted in additional minor edits to the form and instructions. States are required to use the IWO form to issue income withholding orders. OCSS provided states the option to use the previously approved IWO form for an additional 12 months so that child support agencies remain compliant with federal law while making any system changes to accommodate the proposed edits to the IWO form. This request is to remove those outdated materials, which were clearly specified as only being used for one year.

DC School Choice Incentive Program

Key Information

Abstract

The DC Opportunity Scholarship Program (OSP) is currently authorized under the Scholarships for Opportunity and Results Act (SOAR). Under the SOAR Act, the US Department of Education awards a grant to a non-profit to administer scholarships to students who reside in the District of Columbia and come from households whose incomes do not exceed 185% of the poverty line (300% of the poverty line for returning students). The current administrator of the OSP is Serving Our Children (SOC). Under the law, priority is given to siblings of students in the program, and students who are currently attending low-performing schools, as defined by Title I. To assist in the student selection and assignment process, the information collected is used to determine the eligibility of those students who are interested in the available scholarships.

Financial Responsibility for Motor Carriers of Passengers and Motor Carriers of Property

Key Information

Abstract

This non-substantive change request is to update the expiration date for the forms MCS-82, MCS-82B, MCS-90, and MCS-90B. DOT promulgates regulations that establish minimum levels of financial responsibility for motor carriers of property to cover public liability, property damage, and environmental restoration, and minimum levels of financial responsibility for for-hire motor carriers of passengers to cover public liability and property damage. It is mandated that motor carriers maintain proof of the required financial responsibility at their principal places of business, available upon request of an FMCSA safety investigator during investigations or audits. Insurance endorsements and surety bonds are considered public information and must be produced by a motor carrier of property or a motor carrier of passengers for review upon reasonable request by a member of the public. Motor carriers domiciled in Canada, Mexico, and non-North America (NNA) domiciled carriers who transport property or conduct passenger transportation operations within the United States must obtain an insurance endorsement or surety bond. All vehicles operated in the United States by these motor carriers must have a legible copy of the insurance endorsement or surety bond in the vehicle available to Federal or State enforcement officials during roadside inspections. FMCSA and the public use the information collected to verify that a motor carrier of property or passengers has obtained, and has in effect, the required minimum levels of financial responsibility. This ICR has a program adjustment of an increase in annual responses and burden hours due to a 51 percent increase in the number of entities that registered in 2020-2022. The information collections (ICs) are as follows: IC1.1 - Property carriers to complete MCS-90 (insurance) IC1.2 - Property carriers to complete MCS-82 (surety) IC2.1 - Passenger carriers to complete MCS-90B (insurance) IC2.2 - Passenger carriers to complete MCS-82B (surety) IC1.3a - U.S. Property carriers to store MCS-90 (insurance) IC1.3b - U.S. Property carriers to store MCS-82 (surety) IC2.3a - U.S. Passenger carriers to store MCS-90B (insurance) IC2.3b - U.S. Passenger carriers to store MCS-82B (surety) IC1.3c - Mexico, NNA and Canada property carriers to store MCS-90 (insurance) IC1.3d - Mexico, NNA and Canada property carriers to store MCS-82 (surety) IC2.3c - Mexico, NNA and Canada passenger carriers to store MCS-90B (insurance) IC2.3d - Mexico, NNA and Canada passenger carriers to store MCS-82B (surety)

U.S. Repatriation Program Forms

Key Information

Abstract

The U.S. Repatriation Program (Program) is authorized by Section 1113 of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. § 1313) and the assistance provided to mentally ill repatriates found under 24 U.S.C. §§ 321 - 329. This Program also provides services for emergency repatriations which are authorized under Section 1113 and by the extension of the Executive Order (E.O.) precedent, E.O. 12656 (53 CFR 47491). Program regulations are in 45 CFR 211 & 212. The current collection includes eight forms with translations in six languages. The information collected through these forms allows the Office of Human Services Emergency Preparedness and Response (OHSEPR) to fulfill its statutory responsibilities to provide temporary assistance to repatriates. The Program also provides training and technical assistance to states and territories for routine and emergency repatriation. Additionally, OHSEPR provides funding to states for emergency repatriation planning, training, and exercises. In 2025, ACF submitted updates to forms under this collection in response to new Executive Orders. Through that process, OMB requested minor edits to the SSA to align with the updates to the form. Through that revision process the incorrect SSA was inadvertently updated and sent for upload. ACF would like to replace the currently uploaded SSA with the correct version. The correct version matches the data entered in ROCIS in terms of burden estimates and forms approved.

Examination for Housebound Status or Permanent Need for Regular Aid and Attendance (VA Form 21-2680)

Key Information

Abstract

VA Form 21-2680 is used to determine eligibility for the aid and attendance and/or housebound benefits. 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. Without this information, entitlement to these benefits cannot be determined.

FEMA-Administered Disaster Case Management (DCM)

Key Information

Abstract

This collection tool will primarily be used as a guide to support FEMA-administered Disaster Case Management (DCM) case managers by outlining the allowable data elements they can collect from survivors on behalf of FEMA. While there will be a paper collection tool, the case managers will primarily be using the tool as a reference of data elements they can collect, and using their own case management database systems to guide the order in which the elements are collected. The elements within the tool are used to assess, screen, and refer disaster survivors to available resources that address their specific disaster-related unmet needs. Case managers then take the information from the intake form and manually upload the data into their secured case management database. Prior to any data collection, survivors will complete and sign a FEMA-administered DCM Consent Form, authorizing FEMA, or its agent, to collect data from the survivor in order to effectively provide case management services.

Information collections contained in 10 CFR Part 37 for Modernizing Requirements Relating to Physical Protection of Category 1 and Category 2 Quantities of Radioactive Material Rule

Key Information

Abstract

PROPOSED RULE: MODERNIZING REQUIREMENTS RELATING TO PHYSICAL PROTECTION OF CATEGORY 1 AND CATEGORY 2 QUANTITIES OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL PROPOSED RULE NOTE: This proposed rule is part of the NRC’s rulemaking efforts under Executive Order 14300. Although the rule affects existing information collections, the current submission requests a new, temporary clearance number. After the final rule is published, the associated burden will be transferred to the respective existing clearance numbers, and this temporary clearance will be discontinued. The NRC is conducting a review and wholesale revision of its regulations. As part of this initiative, the NRC is proposing to revise its regulations to remove unnecessary requirements relating to physical protection of category 1 and category 2 quantities of radioactive material. The proposed rule would remove the requirement for licensees to submit oath or affirmation certifications for reviewing officials to the NRC, as well as eliminate the 10-year reinvestigation mandate. Additionally, the required coordination frequency with LLEAs would be reduced from at least every 12 months to at least every 3 years, or when licensees make changes to the facility design or operation that adversely affect the potential vulnerability of the licensee’s material to theft, sabotage or diversion. Lastly, the obligation to maintain a maintenance and testing program, including related recordkeeping, would also be eliminated.

Privacy and Disclosure of Official Records and Information; Availability of Information and Records to the Public

Key Information

Abstract

Under the Privacy and Disclosure of Official Records and Information regulations, SSA has established methods in which the public can consent to and authorize the release of records protected under the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a of the United States Code, and request records accessible through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552. Consent for Release of Records SSA obtains the required consent(s) (with certain exceptions specified by law) from anyone requesting information in SSA systems of records about another individual. We will not release information requested about an individual until we obtain the required consent from that individual. Under the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a(b)), individuals may give SSA written consent to disclose their personal information to a third party of their choosing. In addition, individuals may have multiple needs for the disclosure of their personal information, such as for qualification for a mortgage or preemployment screenings. a. Form SSA-3288 (Consent for Release of Information): Form SSA-3288, is SSA’s preferred paper form for requests for disclosure of information based on the consent of the subject of the record. Respondents can download the SSA-3288 from ssa.gov/forms, obtain a copy at a local SSA field office, or request SSA mail a copy to them directly. Use of this form ensures compliance with SSA consent regulations at 20 CFR 401.100. SSA also collects consent on other writings, including non-SSA forms often used by large employers, that incorporate SSA-approved consent language. b. Form SSA-3288-OP1 (Consent for Disclosure of Records Protected Under the Privacy Act): The Form SSA-3288-OP1 will comply with the CASES Act, OMB M-21-04, and SSA consent regulations at 20 CFR 401.100. The CASES Act directed OMB to develop templates for, among other things, electronic consents for SSA to disclose records protected by the Privacy Act of 1974 to third parties. OMB implemented that statutory directive in memorandum M-21-04. SSA developed the SSA-3288-OP1 pursuant to the CASES Act and M-21-04. The public will access the webform application that populates Form SSA-3288-OP1 on the Internet by selecting the ‘‘Electronic Request for Consent to Disclose’’ link which will be posted at www.ssa.gov/privacy. The respondents are individuals consenting to, authorizing, and requesting SSA disclosure of records protected by the Privacy Act of 1974 to third parties. We are submitting an IT Modification non-substantive change to add SSA-3288-OP to Upload Documents and are making minor changes to the electronic for clarity.

Key Information

Abstract

This is a request for a rule-related (0648-BN23) revision and extension of OMB Control No. 0648-0605. This revision request makes the following changes: ● Removal of weekly annual catch entitlement (ACE) reporting requirements for sectors (50 CFR 648.87(b)(1)(v)(B)); ● Removal of the option to increase the frequency of ACE reporting requirements for sectors when the balance of remaining ACE is low, as specified in the sector operations plan and approved by NMFS (50 CFR 648.87(b)(1)(v)(B)); ● Removal of the requirement for sectors to include in their operations plan a list of all Federal and state permits held by persons participating in the sector, including an indication for each permit whether it is enrolled and will actively fish in a sector, or will be subject to the provisions of the common pool (50 CFR 648.87(b) (2) (ii)). These collections are necessary to carry out the requirements of the groundfish fishery as specified by the Northeast (NE) Multispecies Fishery Management Plan (FMP). Removal of the above requirements is intended to reduce the administrative burden on sectors, without negatively affecting the availability of information for analyzing the impacts of sectors, monitoring against the objectives of the FMP, or evaluating current management programs and future management proposals.

[NCEZID] Laboratory Response Network

Key Information

Abstract

The Laboratory Response Network is an integrated national and international network of laboratories that can respond to suspected acts of biological, chemical, or radiological terrorism and other public health emergencies. Member laboratories submit information regarding the testing capabilities of the laboratory; report all biological and chemical testing results; and participate in Proficiency Testing Challenges or Validation. The goal of the study is to identify gaps in preparedness for biological threats and emerging infectious diseases. The data will be used to develop strategies, policies, and operating procedures for responding to biological threat emergencies. The LRN website, Results Messenger data exchange application, and Special Data Calls Questionnaires are methods used to collect data from member laboratories. There is a reduction in Burden Hours from the previously approved collection due to a decrease in participating laboratories. In this revision, the burden has been reduced by the continued expansion of LRN laboratories implementing HL7 reporting and decreasing the need for manual entry to Results Messenger. The number of data elements collected for the LRN Data Exchange has also been reduced. Numerical test results (i.e. Ct values) or a sample conclusion are no longer collected. As part of laboratory qualification data collection, the ability to add program feedback was added. Burden was further reduced by re-evaluating the burden calculation based upon requirements LRN places upon the member laboratories versus the requirements of the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) regulations and other quality management programs place upon the laboratories. In the instance of proficiency tests and challenge panels, the analysis of these samples is required by CLIA and/or other quality management systems implemented locally.

Provider Network Coverage Data Collection (CMS-10594)

Key Information

Abstract

Proposed §156.230(e)(1) would require that QHP issuers make a good faith effort to provide written notice of discontinuation of a provider 30 days prior to the effective date of the change or otherwise as soon as practicable, to enrollees who are patients seen on a regular basis by the provider or who receive primary care from the provider whose contract is discontinuing. This is a third-party disclosure requirement. CMS is not proposing to collect this notice from QHP issuers in FFMs, therefore we are not specifying ways in which we will use the data. The purpose of this notice is to provide consumers information on when their providers will no longer be available in-network in their QHP. In proposed 156.230(f)(2), we require QHP issuers to provide a notice to enrollees of the possibility of out-of-network charges from an out-of-network provider in an in-network setting at least 10 calendar days prior to the service being provided to avoid counting the out-of-network costs against to the annual limitation on cost sharing.
