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.

Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS®) Survey

Key Information

Abstract

OPM uses the CAHPS results as part of the FEHB Plan Performance Assessment (PPA). The PPA enables a consistent, objective evaluation of carrier performance and also provides more transparency for enrollees. This assessment uses a discrete set of quantifiable measures to examine key aspects of performance in the areas of clinical quality, customer service and resource use. Eight CAHPS measures are part of this discrete set of quantifiable measures. Taken together with more traditional assessments of contract administration, these measures help ensure that enrollees receive high quality affordable healthcare and a positive customer experience. The PPA is linked to carrier profit and premium adjustment factors. FEHB contracts include language to incorporate the PPA as a determinant of the Service Charge or Performance Adjustment.

Focus Groups As Used By EPA For Economics Projects (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is seeking approval for a generic information collection request (ICR) for the conduct of focus groups and one-on-one interviews related to economics projects primarily for survey development. Focus groups are groups of individuals brought together for moderated discussions on a specific topic or issue. These groups are typically formed to gain insight and understanding of attitudes and perceptions held by the public surrounding an issue. One-on-one interviews, as the term implies, are individual interviews in which a respondent is generally asked to review materials and provide feedback on their content and design as well as the thought processes that the materials invoke. Focus groups and one-on-one interviews (hereafter referred to collectively as focus groups) used as a qualitative research tool have three major purposes: To better understand respondents attitudes, perceptions and emotions in response to specific topics and concepts; To obtain respondent information useful for better defining variables and measures in later quantitative studies; And to further explore findings obtained from quantitative studies. Through these focus groups, the Agency will be able to gain a more in-depth understanding of the publics attitudes, beliefs, motivations and feelings regarding specific issues and will provide invaluable information regarding the quality of draft survey instruments. Focus group discussions are necessary and important steps in the design of a quality survey.

Disclosure of returns and return information

Key Information

Abstract

Subject to such requirements and conditions as the Secretary may prescribe by regulation, section 6103(c) of the Internal Revenue Code authorizes the Internal Revenue Service to disclose a taxpayer's return or return information to such person or persons as the taxpayer may designate in a request for or consent to such disclosure, or to any other person at the taxpayer's request to the extent necessary to comply with the taxpayer's request to such other person for information or assistance. This regulation (§301.6103(c)-1) contains the requirements that must be met before, and the conditions under which, the Internal Revenue Service may make such disclosures. Form 4506-T is used by taxpayers to request copies of their tax return information. The information provided will be used to search the taxpayers account and provide the requested information and to ensure that the requestor is the taxpayer, or someone authorized by the taxpayer to obtain the documents requested. Individuals can use Form 4506T-EZ to request a tax return transcript that includes most lines of the original tax return. The tax return transcript will not show payments, penalty assessments, or adjustments made to the originally filed return.

Air Emissions Reporting Requirements (AERR) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

Under the AERR ICR, 55 State and territorial air quality agencies, including the District of Columbia (DC), and an estimated 14 local and tribal air quality agencies, must annually submit emissions data of oxides of nitrogen (NOx), carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur dioxide (SO2), volatile organic compounds (VOC), particulate matter less than or equal to 10 micrometers in diameter (PM10), particulate matter less than or equal to 2.5 micrometers in diameter (PM2.5), and ammonia (NH3). The current AERR rule, which can be found at 40 CFR Part 51 Subpart A, defines which emissions sources that State, local, and Tribal (SLT) agencies must submit individually as “point sources.” The point source definitions are different depending on the year, and SLTs report more point sources every third year for the “triennial inventory.” For triennial inventory years, States must also submit point source emissions for Lead (Pb), emissions for stationary nonpoint and some nonroad mobile sources, and they must submit model input data for onroad mobile and nonroad mobile equipment. For mobile sources, California has different requirements because it uses different models, and California must submit emissions (rather than model inputs) for these data categories of the same pollutants listed above. The annual emissions data collected through the AERR are used by the EPA Office of Air Quality Planning and Standards (OAQPS) to support development of the National Emissions Inventory (NEI). The NEI is more comprehensive for triennial inventory years because they include updates to all data categories. The EPA uses the NEI in developing national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS), performing regional and national modeling, providing air quality management support (e.g., State implementation plan (SIP) development) to State agencies and multi-jurisdictional organizations (MJOs), and preparing national trends assessments and other special analyses and reports. Currently, the same reporting mechanisms used for the criteria air pollutants and precursors (CAPs) listed above are also used for voluntary reporting of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) and other pollutants. These data are collected by the air agencies for their own purposes, and EPA encourages air agencies to voluntarily provide such data to EPA when it is available.

Current Population Survey (CPS) Basic Demographics

Key Information

Abstract

The CPS demographic data include age, marital status, sex, Armed Forces status, education, race, Hispanic origin, and country of birth. The data are used for subject specific (labor-force and supplement) analytic research, for internal analytic research, for evaluating other surveys, and for selecting other survey samples. The Census Bureau, in conjunction with the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), is proposing an experimental collection in the Current Population Survey (CPS) of Race and Ethnicity information using the new SPD15 standard. The main goal of the study is to assess the effect of the new race and ethnicity standard (2024 SPD15) on estimates obtained from the CPS. The study will also aid in the implementation of the new standard for interviewer-administered data collections (both in-person and by phone). The study will examine the impact of differences in reporting using the new 2024 standard and the 1997 standard (which CPS currently is using) on race distributions, labor force estimates, weighting, and missing data.

Appraisals, 12 CFR Part 722

Key Information

Abstract

Title XI of the Financial Institutions, Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989 (FIRREA) was enacted to protect federal financial and public policy interests in real estate related transactions. To achieve this purpose, the statute directed the NCUA to adopt standards for the performance of real estate appraisals in connection with federally related transactions. FIRREA requires that appraisals be maintained in writing and meet certain minimum standards. NCUA’s regulation Part 722 carries out the statutory requirements. The information collection activity requires a credit union to obtain a written appraisal on federally related transactions or maintain written support of the estimated market value for transactions not required to have an appraisal. The use of their information by credit unions and NCUA helps ensure that federally insured credit unions are not exposed to risk of loss from inadequate appraisals.

Abstract

Internal Revenue Code (IRC) sections 871, 877A, 1441, 1442, 1445, 1446, 1471, 1472, 5000C, and 6049 require withholding agents to deduct and withhold specified amounts of income paid to certain expatriates, nonresident aliens, foreign persons, foreign partnerships, and foreign corporations for tax liabilities under IRC Subtitle A. IRC sections 1461 and 1474, and their associated regulations, make these withholding agents liable for such tax and require reporting of taxes and payments to the IRS. Treasury Regulations section 1.871-15(p) was added by Treasury Decision (TD) 9734, as amended by TD 9815, as amended by TD 9887. This regulation provides that any party to an IRC section 871(m) transaction may request information regarding that transaction from another party to the transaction. There is no prescribed form required. Any statement required by section 1.871-15(p) may be provided in paper or electronic form. The regulation allows taxpayers to share information in any reasonable manner agreed to by the parties. See 1.871-15(p)(3)(i). Form 1042, Annual Withholding Tax Return for U.S. Source Income of Foreign Persons, is used by withholding agents to report tax amounts withheld from payments to certain expatriates, nonresident aliens, foreign persons, foreign partnerships, and foreign corporations to the IRS. Schedule Q (Form 1042), Tax Liability of Qualified Derivatives Dealer (QDD), is used by a taxpayer, or any branch of the taxpayer, that was a QDD to report tax liabilities as required by Treasury Regulations section 1.441-1(e)(6)(i)(D)(3). Form 1042-S, Foreign Person’s U.S. Source Income Subject to Withholding, is an information return used by the withholding agent to report certain income and amounts withheld to the payee and the IRS. Form 1042-T, Annual Summary and Transmittal of Forms 1042-S, is used by the withholding agent to transmit paper Forms 1042-S to the IRS.

Recordkeeping and Disclosure Requirements Associated with the CFPB's and the Board's Regulations V

Key Information

Abstract

The CFPBs Regulation V and the Board’s Regulation V (collectively FR V Regulations) implement in part the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), which was enacted in 1970 based on a Congressional finding that the banking system is dependent on fair and accurate credit reporting. The FCRA was enacted to ensure consumer reporting agencies exercise their responsibilities with fairness, impartiality, and a respect for the consumer’s right to privacy. The FCRA requires consumer reporting agencies to adopt reasonable procedures that are fair and equitable to the consumer with regard to the confidentiality, accuracy, relevancy, and proper utilization of consumer information. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act), enacted in 2010, transferred to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) most, but not all, of the rulemaking authority for issuing regulations under the FCRA. The Board and other federal agencies retained rulemaking responsibility for the FCRA provisions regarding identity theft prevention programs and the duties of card issuers to validate consumers’ changes of address (hereinafter, identity theft red flags), as well as the disposal of consumer information, with respect to the entities that are subject to each agency’s respective enforcement authority. The Board and Federal Trade Commission (FTC) also retained rulemaking authority for certain provisions of the FCRA applicable to motor vehicle dealers. The Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) classifies reporting, recordkeeping, or disclosure requirements of a regulation as an information collection. The Board continues to be responsible for renewing every three years the information collection requirements contained in the CFPB’s Regulation V for institutions with $10 billion or less in assets that are identified in 15 U.S.C. § 1681s(b)(1)(A)(ii) and for consumers of these institutions, as well as for the identity theft red flags provisions in the Board’s Regulation V for institutions of any size that are identified in 15 U.S.C. § 1681s(b)(1)(A)(ii).

Key Information

Abstract

In general, the federal flood insurance statutes and Regulation H - Membership of State Banking Institutions in the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR Part 208) provide that a lender shall not make, increase, extend, or renew a loan secured by a building or mobile home located in a special flood hazard area unless the secured property is covered by flood insurance for the term of the loan. With respect to the recordkeeping and disclosure provisions, the regulation generally requires state member banks to retain certain flood hazard documentation and to notify borrowers and servicers regarding properties in flood hazard areas and requirements related to flood insurance. State member banks also must notify the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) of the identity of, and any change in, the servicer of a loan secured by improved property in a special flood hazard area. The information collection requirements under the flood hazard provisions of Regulation H are triggered by specific events in the lending process.

BTS is operating as usual. BTS is fully funded, does not rely upon appropriations, and has contract authority to obligate the agency. Therefore, it is not needed to show the information collection fits into an excepted activity; all our activities are currently operating normally. BTS was scheduled to submit the 30-day FR for the “Preservation of Air Carrier Records” ICR on October 15, 2025. Ordinarily, this would have been plenty of time for the notice to publish and for BTS to submit the renewal package to OMB prior to its October 31, 2025, expiration date. However, due to the OFR not accepting IC notices for publication during the government shutdown, BTS was unable to complete this step in the renewal process. ICR FR notices do not fall into the category of allowable publications at the OFR during a lapse in appropriations. If the ICR expires without an extension, BTS would be legally prohibited from processing any records for preservation, which means that audit and/or validation would not be relevant, and the submission would be impaired since the data could not be verified. This would have significant operational and industry-wide impacts.

Motor Carrier Identification Report

Key Information

Abstract

The information collection is mandatory reporting requirements and consists of 3 information collection instruments. IC-1, Form MCS-150, Motor Carrier Identification Report is filed by all motor carriers conducting operations in interstate or international commerce before beginning operations. It is also used by motor carriers needing to update previously submitted information, and on a biennial update basis. IC-2, Form MCS-150B, Combined Motor Carrier Identification and HM Permit Application is filed by interstate motor carriers that transport the permitted hazardous materials. It is also used by motor carriers needing to update previously submitted information, and on a biennial update basis. IC-3, Form MCS-150C, Intermodal Equipment Provider Identification Report is filed by IEPs that interchange intermodal equipment with a motor carrier or have contractual responsibility for the maintenance of the intermodal equipment. FMCSA uses the information to identify its regulated entities, to help prioritize the Agency’s enforcement activities, to aid in assessing the safety outcomes of those activities, and for statistical purposes. This information collection supports the agency’s strategic goal of safety by establishing and monitoring safe operating requirements for motor carriers, commercial motor vehicle drivers, vehicles, and vehicle equipment.Emergency Justfication:FMCSA’s general law division, which covers fiscal law issues, has been consulted for guidance.

If the ICR expires without an extension, FMCSA would be legally prohibited from accepting or processing MCS-150, MCS-150B, or MCS-150C submissions, which means that registrants/potential registrants would be unable to comply with regulatory requirements covering the following activities: • Some new USDOT Number registrations • Required biennial updates • Reactivations of USDOT Numbers • Changes to company information (ownership, address, operation type, etc.) This would have significant operational and industry-wide impacts, potentially leaving carriers unable to update or maintain their registration status. Without the ability to file MCS-150 updates, some carriers could be rendered unable to operate legally and may face enforcement or roadside out-of-service conditions. FMCSA asks that OIRA please extend the expiration date of this ICR either on a monthly basis until the shutdown ends, or grant the extension for up to 90-days.

Abstract

The goal of the National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS) is to collect tobacco use behavioral data among 6th through 12th grade students in 2024, 2025, and 2026. The purpose of the survey is to assess use of tobacco products and the associated correlates. For this revision, the content of the 2024 instrument remains largely consistent with the past NYTS surveys. The overall burden is somewhat higher than the previous cycle due to the increased sample size allowing for more precision of race estimates.

Revision of a currently approved collection
Public Transportation Safety Certification Training Program (PTSCTP)

Key Information

Abstract

This is a revision of a currently approved information collection entitled “Public Transportation Safety Certification Training Program” (PTSCTP) associated with a Final Rulemaking. OMB filed a comment on the NPRM on April 24, 2024. FTA did not receive any comments during the NPRM related to the collection of information, burden cost and/or hours. Therefore, there are no changes to the respondents, responses or annual burden hours in this Final Rulemaking from what was previously submitted to OMB during the NPRM phase. PTSCTP provides uniform training requirements for Federal and State personnel and contractors who conduct safety audits and examinations of transit systems and for transit agency personnel and contractors who are directly responsible for safety oversight. The program respondents are Rail Transit Agencies (RTAs) and State Safety Oversight Agencies (SSOAs). They collect and forward training information to FTA on behalf of designated safety personnel. This is a mandatory collection of information to assure that compliance with the requirements is properly and earnestly undertaken by respondents who are directly responsible for safety oversight of our Nation’s public transportation systems. The PTSCTP Final Rulemaking are discretionary changes that refine the PTSCTP communication process, streamlines administrative requirements, and clarifies voluntary PTSCTP participation and refresher training requirements. The rule maintains the existing minimum training requirements for State Safety Oversight Agency (SSOA) personnel and Rail Transit Safety (RTA) personnel. These changes will ensure training requirements and curriculum for safety professionals in rail transit agencies are more responsive to changing industry needs.
