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, modify, or discontinue 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.

National Communication System for Runaway and Homeless Youth Data Collection
Key Information
Abstract
The Family and Youth Services Bureau’s (FYSB) Runaway and Homeless Youth Division has a legislative requirement to fund a National Communication System, which is currently operated by the National Runaway Safeline (NRS). The NRS provides information, referral services, crisis intervention, and prevention resources to vulnerable youth and families of youth at risk of running away and/or becoming homeless at no cost. When necessary, the NRS refers runaway and homeless youth to shelters, counseling, medical assistance, and other vital services. The NRS collects information from all contacts with youth and adults connecting with the NRS (i.e., parents, family members, legal guardians, service providers) on a voluntary basis to inform crisis services and develop an annual report on the information collected during calls, chats, emails, and forum posts from young people who reached out to the NRS’s crisis services. The Runaway and Homeless Youth Act (RHYA), as reauthorized by the Reconnecting Homeless Youth Act of 2008 (P.L.110-378) through FY 2013 and more recently reauthorized by the Juvenile Justice Reform Act through FY 2019, mandates the Secretary shall make grants for a national communication system to assist runaway and homeless youth in communicating with their families and with service providers. The NRS is required to have a system for collecting and analyzing data on calls, emails, chat, texts, and online messages received as well as other information, such as prevention resources, referrals, demographics, and visitors to the NRS website. The NRS must submit monthly and semi-annual reports that includes the following: • Number of calls received, answered, and missed. • Number of chats, emails, and texts received; number of chats, emails, and texts answered; and number of chats, emails, and texts that were missed and did not receive a response, in which the users are youth in crisis, runaway youth, and youth experiencing homelessness. • Number of parents, legal guardians, and service providers contacting the NRS and the type of resources, interventions, and technical support/assistance requested and provided. • Number and type of prevention materials disseminated to communities, especially to underserved populations. • Number and type of unique visitors to the NRS’ website. • Information on referrals provided and where youth were referred for services. • Information on the callers' or users' demographics and where they were located when contacting the NRS. • Information on the prevention materials developed and disseminated by the NRS. • Information and analysis of the latest trends and their impact on runaway prevention. The NRS uses two forms, one form to collect relevant information disclosed during calls, emails, and forum posts, and then a second form to collect information from chats. All data will be provided to FYSB in the aggregate and no personally identifiable information are collected. This nonsubstantive change request is in response to the Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government Executive Order (Defending Women EO). ACF has implemented changes to update gender collected data to denote sex as a biological variable in current approved information collection requests to comply with the directives. This request is specific to only these updates. |

The purpose of this survey is to provide statistics about the finances of elementary and secondary public school systems. We collect revenue data including: local property tax, revenues from other school systems, private tuition and transportation payments, school lunch charges, direct federal and state aid, and federal aid passed through the state government. We also collect expenditures by function and object. These expenditures include: instruction, support service functions, salaries, benefits, and capital outlay. Other data included in this survey are indebtedness, and cash and investments. Fiscal data for school systems are collected centrally from state education agencies, since these are part of more detailed data routinely collected for state education aid programs. |

Electronic Diversity Visa Entry Form
Key Information
Abstract
The DS-5501 collection is necessary because the Department requires certain information to verify eligibility of aliens who enter the Diversity Visa program. Immigration and Nationality Act (“INA”) Section 203(c) [8 U.S.C. § 1153(c)], provides for a class of immigrants known as “diversity immigrants” from countries with historically low rates of immigration to the United States. Pursuant to INA section 204(a)(1)(I) [8 U.S.C. § 1154(a)(1)(I)], all aliens seeking diversity immigrant status must submit a petition (the DS-5501) but may apply for a diversity visa only if randomly selected in the diversity visa lottery and only during the specific fiscal year for which they were selected. The Secretary of State is authorized to establish, through regulations, the information that must be included in the petition and any documentary evidence required to support the petition. Accordingly, 22 CFR § 42.33(b) outlines the specific information that must be included in the petition as well as documentation required to support the petition. |

Notice of Special Enrollment Rights under Group Health Plans
Key Information
Abstract
Section 701(f) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) provides special enrollment rights to individuals who have previously declined health coverage offered to them to enroll in health coverage upon the occurrence of specified events, including when they lose other coverage, when employer contributions to the cost of other coverage cease, and when they marry, have a child or adopt a child (“special enrollment events”). Plans and issuers are required to provide for 30-day special enrollment periods following any of these events during which individuals who are eligible but not enrolled have a right to enroll without being denied enrollment or having to wait for a late enrollment opportunity (often called “open enrollment”). A group health plan may require, as a pre-condition to having a special enrollment right to enroll in group health coverage after losing eligibility under other coverage, that an employee or beneficiary who declines coverage provide the plan a written statement declaring whether he or she is declining coverage because of having other coverage. Failure to provide such a written statement can then be treated as eliminating the individual's right to special enrollment upon losing eligibility for such other coverage. The regulations further establish that the right to special enroll can be denied in such circumstances only if employees are given notice of the requirement for a written statement and the consequences of failing to provide the written statement at the time an employee declines enrollment. As part of the special enrollment notice, it must be given at or before the time the employee is initially offered the opportunity to enroll. This information collection request covers the requirement in the implementing regulations under section 701(f) for a special enrollment notice. This information collection implements the disclosure obligation of a plan to inform all employees, at or before the time they are initially offered the opportunity to enroll in the plan, of the plan's special enrollment rules. The regulations require plans and their issuers to provide all employees with a notice describing their special enrollment rights, whether or not they enroll.

Designation of Agents, Motor Carriers, Brokers and Freight Forwarders
Key Information
Abstract
Motor carriers of property and passengers, property brokers, surface freight forwarders, including exempt for hire and private motor carriers, operating in interstate or foreign commerce must register with the FMCSA. The collection is mandatory reporting. As a condition of registration, these entities must designate process agents for each State in which they operate on the “Designation of Agents for Service of Process” form, Form BOC-3. The form is submitted by registration applicants to FMCSA to meet a statutory requirement and is filed on an “as-needed” basis and cannot be done less frequently. Most forms are filed by blanket companies on behalf of carriers. Currently, information contained on the completed Form BOC-3 identifies a process agent for each State in which the motor carrier, freight forwarder, or broker will operate. These process agents are authorized by the transportation entity to accept, on its behalf, legal process or notice in Agency and court proceedings. Persons considering bringing legal actions against a carrier, broker, or freight forwarder may obtain the name of its process agent in a particular State by contacting FMCSA. |

Request for Termination of Medicare Premium Part A, Part B, or Part B Immunosuppressive Drug Coverage (Part B-ID) and Request to Cancel Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance) (CMS-1763)
Key Information
Abstract
Sections 1818(c)(5), 1818A(c)(2)(B) and 1838(b)(1) of the Act and corresponding regulations at 42 CFR 406.28(a) and 407.27(c) require that a Medicare enrollee wishing to voluntarily terminate Part B and/or premium Part A coverage file a written request with CMS or SSA. The statute and regulations also specify when coverage ends based upon the date the request for termination is filed. Under sections 1838(b) and (h)(4) of the Act individuals are not required to enroll or remain enrolled in the Part B for immunosuppressive drugs (Part B-ID) benefit program. Individuals enrolled in the Part B-ID benefit can terminate their enrollment by filing notice that they no longer wish to participate in the Part B-ID benefit program. The CMS-1763 and 1763A are the forms used by individuals who wish to terminate their Medicare premium Part A, Part B or Part B-ID or cancel their Medicare Part B. This is necessary due to how SSA defines termination and cancellation. To terminate means that coverage has already begun, to cancel means that coverage has not yet started. Only one version of the form will apply to each case that is processed. Furthermore, it would improve our data by distinguishing between individuals who terminated their Medicare coverage after it began, and those who canceled their coverage before it started, potentially influencing future policy decisions. |

Abstract
This information collection pertains to information that an offeror/contractor must submit to the Department of Defense (DoD) if only one offer was received in response to a competitive solicitation, and the contracting officer must now request certified cost or pricing data because of the revised standard for adequate price competition that is applicable to DoD, NASA, and the Coast Guard. This information collection requirement implements Cost or Pricing Data—Truth in negotiations, 10 U.S.C. 2306a, as amended by section 822 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 (Pub. L 114-328). To the extent that 10 U.S.C. 2306a is the same as 41 U.S.C. chapter 35, information collection requirements are covered under OMB clearance 9000-0013. However, section 822 of the NDAA for FY 2017 changes the standard for adequate price competition for DoD, NASA, and the Coast Guard. This supporting statement addresses only the additional burden for DoD, as implemented in DFARS clause 252.215-7008, Only One Offer, and 252.215-7010, Requirements for Certified Cost or Pricing Data and Data Other Than Certified Cost or Pricing Data. |
