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.

Employment Questionnaire (VA Form 21-4140)

Key Information

Abstract

VA Form 21-4140 is used to gather the necessary information to determine continued entitlement to individual unemployability. Recipients are required to certify, when requested, that the eligibility factors which established entitlement to the benefit being paid continue to exist. Individual unemployability is awarded based on a veteran’s inability to be gainfully employed due to service-connected disabilities, and entitlement may be terminated if a veteran begins working. Without information about recipients’ employment, VA would not be able to determine continued entitlement to individual unemployability, and overpayments would result.

Trademark Submissions Regarding Correspondence and Regarding Attorney Representation

Key Information

Abstract

The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) administers the Trademark Act, 15 U.S.C. § 1051 et seq., which provides for the Federal registration of trademarks, service marks, collective trademarks and service marks, collective membership marks, and certification marks. Individuals and businesses that use or intend to use such marks in commerce may file an application to register their marks with the USPTO. Such individuals and business may also submit various communications to the USPTO regarding their pending applications or registered trademarks, including providing additional information needed to process a pending application, filing amendments to the applications, or filing the papers necessary to keep a trademark in force. In the majority of circumstances, individuals and business retain attorneys to handle these matters. As such, these parties may also submit communications to the USPTO regarding the appointment of attorneys to represent applicants or registrants in the application and post-registration processes or, in the case of applicants or registrants who are not domiciled in the United States, the appointment of domestic representatives on whom may be served notices of process in proceedings affecting the mark, the revocation of an attorney’s or domestic representative’s appointment, and requests for permission to withdraw from representation. The rules implementing the Act are set forth in 37 CFR Part 2. In addition to governing the registration of trademarks, the Act and rules also govern the appointment and revocation of attorneys and domestic representatives and provide the specifics for filing requests for permission to withdraw as the attorney of record. The information in this collection is available to the public. The information in this collection can be submitted in paper form or electronically through the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS). The information in this collection can be collected in three different formats: paper format, electronically using TEAS forms with dedicated data fields, or electronically using the TEAS Global Form format. The TEAS Global Form format permits the USPTO to collect information electronically when a TEAS form having dedicated data fields is not yet available. This collection currently has two TEAS forms and two TEAS Global Forms. There are no official paper forms for the items in this collection. Individuals and businesses can submit their own paper forms, following the USPTO’s rules and guidelines to ensure that all of the necessary information is provided.

Consent-Based Social Security Number Verification Service (CBSV)

Key Information

Abstract

SSA is requesting to make revisions to the CBSV User Agreement. This collection instrument defines the conditions, terms, and safeguards under which SSA provides participating businesses with the verification of Social Security numbers. This action does not affect the public reporting burden. SSA developed CBSV in response to multiple requests from the business community. CBSV is a fee-for-service process which allows SSA to process high volumes of SSN verifications that companies need for business purposes. Since this is not required by law but is being provided as a service, businesses incur the costs of CBSV. The respondents are companies requesting SSN verifications from SSA as part of their business process. We are submitting a request for non-substantive changes to clarify the annual fee in the User Agreement and update the User Agreement to show current SSA personnel.

Federal Perkins/NDSL Loan Assignment Form

Key Information

Abstract

The U.S. Department of Education (the Department) is authorized to accept Federal Perkins Loan (Perkins Loan) Program assignments under Section 463(a)(5) of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended. Institutions participating in the Perkins Loan program, including loans made under the National Direct/Defense Student Loan Program (NDSL), use the form (OMB Control Number 1845-0048) to assign loans to the Department for collection without recompense. This request is for approval of the assignment form which allows for assignment of Perkins Loans either individually or in a batch format, utilizing either the paper based or electronic filing format. An institution may use the form to assign one or more loans to the Department at any time throughout the year. Some conditions under which an institution could utilize the assignment form include defaulted loans, total permanent disability discharges, voluntary withdrawal from the program, termination from the program, closure of the institution and liquidation of its Perkins Loan portfolio. The Department is requesting an extension of the currently approved collection. There has been no change to the form. There has been a change in the number of respondents, responses, and burden hours.

Fastener Quality Act Insignia Recordal Process

Key Information

Abstract

Under Section 5 of the Fastener Quality Act (FQA) of 1999, (15 U.S.C. 5401 et seq.), certain industrial fasteners must bear an insignia identifying the manufacturer. It is also mandatory for manufacturers of fasteners covered by the FQA to submit an application to the USPTO for recordal of the insignia on the Fastener Insignia Register. The purpose of requiring both the insignia and the recordation is to ensure that certain fasteners can be traced to their manufacturers and to protect against the sale of mismarked, misrepresented, or counterfeit fasteners. The procedures for the recordal of fastener insignia under the FQA are set forth in 15 CFR 280.300 et seq. This information collection covers data gathered by the FQA applications for Recordal of Insignia and the applications for Renewal/Reactivation of Recordal. The USPTO uses the information in this information collection to record or renew insignias under the FQA and to maintain the Fastener Insignia Register, which is open to public inspection. The public may download the Fastener Insignia Register from the USPTO website at https://www.uspto.gov/trademark/lawsregulations/fastener-quality-act-fqa/fastener-quality-act-fqa.

Section 76.310, Truth in Billing and Advertising

Key Information

Abstract

The Commission adopted on March 14, 2024 a Report and Order, All-In Pricing for Cable and Satellite Television (“R&O”), FCC 24-29, MB Docket 23-203. This R&O adopted 47 CFR § 76.310, Truth in billing and advertising. The rule will require cable operators and direct broadcast satellite (DBS) providers to specify the “all-in” price for video programming in their promotional materials that include pricing information and on subscribers’ bills. Cable operators and DBS providers must present clear, easy-to-understand, and accurate information disclosing the price of video programming. The “all-in” price rule is intended to increase transparency and promote competition in the video programming marketplace by allowing consumers to make better informed choices among the ranges of video programming service options available to them. The information collection requirements are as follows: 47 CFR 76.310 requires truth in billing and advertising: 47 CFR 76.310(a) requires cable operators and DBS providers to state an aggregate price for the video programming that they provide as a clear, easy-to-understand, and accurate single line item on subscribers’ bills, including on bills for legacy or grandfathered video programming service plans. If a price is introductory or limited in time, cable and DBS providers shall state on subscribers’ bills the date the price ends, by disclosing either the length of time that a discounted price will be charged or the date on which a time period will end that will result in a price change for video programming, and the post-promotion rate 60 and 30 days before the end of any introductory period. Cable operators and DBS providers may, at their discretion, complement the aggregate line item with an itemized explanation of the elements that compose that single line item. 47 CFR 76.310(b) requires cable operators and DBS providers that communicate a price for video programming in promotional materials to state the aggregate price for the video programming in a clear, easy-to-understand, and accurate manner. If part of the aggregate price for video programming fluctuates based upon service location, then the provider must state where and how consumers may obtain their subscriber-specific “all-in” price (for example, electronically or by contacting a customer service or sales representative). If part or all of the aggregate price is limited in time, then the provider must state the post-promotion rate, as calculated at that time, and the duration of each rate that will be charged. Cable operators and DBS providers may, at their discretion, complement the aggregate price with an itemized explanation of the elements that compose that aggregate price. The requirement in this paragraph (b) shall not apply to the marketing of legacy or grandfathered video programming service plans that are no longer generally available to new customers. For purposes of this section, the term “promotional material” includes communications offering video programming to consumers such as advertising and marketing.

Climate Pollution Reduction Grants (CPRG) Program Implementation

Key Information

Abstract

The Climate Pollution Reduction Grants (CPRG) program was established under section 60114 of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) signed on August 16, 2022. Through a competitive process, EPA anticipates awarding approximately $4.6B in CPRG implementation grants to states, municipalities, Tribes, territories, and air quality management districts in 2024 to facilitate the reduction of greenhouse gas air pollution (H.R. 5376 117th Congress: Inflation Reduction Act of 2022). This ICR focuses on the data collection needed as part of the one-year reports for General Competition grantees and final reports for all CPRG implementation grant recipients. Standardizing the specific types and forms of how this information is reported across CPRG implementation grant recipients will allow the Agency to check the accuracy of calculations submitted by grantees and will make it possible for the Agency to consistently apply information collected from CPRG implementation grant recipients to meet other program deliverables and reporting obligations (e.g., Justice40 , statutory requirements, etc.).

Imposition of Special Measure Regarding Al-Huda Bank as a Foreign Financial Institution of Primary Money Laundering Concern

Key Information

Abstract

On July 3, 2024, FinCEN issued a final rule. As proposed in the NPRM, the final rule imposes special measure five, prohibiting U.S. financial institutions from opening or maintaining a correspondent account for, or on behalf of, Al-Huda Bank. Further, the rule requires that U.S. financial institutions notify their foreign correspondent account holders that they may not provide Al-Huda Bank with access to correspondent accounts maintained at the U.S. financial institution. The requirement is intended to ensure cooperation from correspondent account holders in preventing Al-Huda Bank access to the U.S. financial system. U.S. financial institutions are required to document compliance with the notification requirement. The information is used by Federal agencies and certain self-regulatory organizations to verify compliance with the rule.

Stepped and Tiered Rent Demonstration Evaluation

Key Information

Abstract

Section 239 of the Fiscal Year 2016 Appropriations Act, P.L. 114-113 (2016 MTW Expansion Statute), authorizes HUD to expand the Moving to Work (MTW) demonstration program from the current size of 39 Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) to an additional 100 agencies over a period of 7 years. The Statute directs HUD to add new MTW PHAs in cohorts, with each cohort testing a specific policy change so that HUD can conduct a rigorous evaluation of that policy’s effects. A copy of the relevant section of law authorizing the Department to undertake “such programs of research, studies, testing, and demonstration relating to the mission and programs of the Department” (12 USC 1701z-1 et seq.) is included as Appendix H. The second cohort of MTW Expansion PHAs will test alternative ways of setting rents in the public housing and housing choice voucher programs. The traditional rent policy (the Brooke rent) typically sets each household’s rent at 30 percent of their adjusted monthly income. This rent policy is administratively complex and burdensome for PHAs and assisted households. The Brooke rent is hypothesized to be a disincentive for households to increase their earnings, as $100 dollars of increased income would result in $30 of increased rent. In this project—the Stepped and Tiered Rent Demonstration (STRD)—PHAs will implement alternative rents that might be easier to administer and might incentivize assisted households to increase their earnings. Five PHAs will implement a stepped rent, under which a household’s rent will increase modestly each year regardless of their income. Five PHAs will implement a tiered rent, under which households are assigned to income-based tiers and rents are set based on the tier. Both policies will enable households to increase their income without causing an immediate rent increase. Both policies include hardship provisions to prevent high rent burdens. And both policies include less frequent income reexaminations, to reduce the amount of PHA staff time required to administer the program. The STRD will be implemented as a randomized controlled trial (RCT); eligible households (limited to non-elderly, non-disabled households) will be randomly assigned to the new rent policy, or to remain on the traditional rent policy. This design is the gold standard for program evaluation and will enable HUD to conclude whether the new rent policies caused any differences observed between the two groups over time. HUD’s evaluation is expected to last 6 years. HUD has contracted with MDRC to carry out the first phase of HUD’s evaluation, to launch the STRD and lay the foundation for a long-term evaluation. HUD has also allocated resources to support software modifications required by the PHAs to implement the STRD Demonstration. This new information collection has the following components in this collection, all of which are necessary for the evaluation to succeed.
