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.

Ongoing Data Collection of Centrally Cleared Transactions in the U.S. Repurchase Agreement Market
Key Information
Abstract
The Financial Stability Oversight Council (“Council”) recommended an ongoing collection of repo data in its 2016 Annual Report to Congress and maintained this recommendation in its 2017 Annual Report. The expanded monitoring of the repo market made possible by this proposed collection appropriately meets Council duties and purposes because of this market’s crucial role in providing short-term funding and performing other functions for U.S. markets. The data would also support the calculation of the Secured Overnight Funding Rate (“SOFR”), which was selected by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (“ARRC”) as its preferred alternative rate to U.S. dollar London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), as well as the Broad General Collateral Rate (“BGCR”), helping fulfill another Council recommendation on the creation of alternative reference rates. |

Agent/Broker Data Collection in Federally-facilitated Health Insurance Exchanges (CMS-10464)
Key Information
Abstract
The Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight (CCIIO), the agency within Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) charged with helping implement many provisions of the Affordable Care Act including the establishment of Affordable Insurance Exchanges (Exchanges), needs to collect data from individual agent/brokers to register them with the Federally-facilitated Exchange (FFE) and provide the required training in Exchange enrollment policies and procedures. Both section 1312(e) of the Affordable Care Act and 45 CFR ?155.220 permit States to allow agent/brokers to enroll individuals, employers, and employees in Qualified Health Plans (QHPs), including through the Exchanges; and assist individuals in applying for advance payments of the premium tax credit and cost-sharing reductions. Agent/brokers will serve as additional access points to the Exchange for individuals or SHOP employers/employees requiring or desiring agent/broker assistance. Agent/brokers must register with the FFE and meet training requirements that enforce their understanding of eligibility and enrollment in Exchanges prior to enrolling individuals or SHOP employer/employees in QHPs through the Exchanges. They must also apply this understanding to the development of any non-Exchange Web site used as a tool for enrollment. Agent/broker designed and administered web sites or tools will improve the flow of information to the FFE, and State-based Exchanges may also find these tools useful toward streamlining data submissions and easing the burden on the Exchange. The collection of information from agent/brokers described in detail below is needed to register and completion training with the FFE. Collected information will be used by CMS/CCIIO to verify the completion of the training requirement, provide the public with a list of registered agent/brokers trained in Exchange enrollment requirements and functions, and perform oversight of agent/brokers operating through the FFE. |
