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.

Abstract

The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) authorizes drawback (refund) of all but $1.00 per gallon of the Federal excise tax paid on distilled spirits subsequently used in the manufacture of certain nonbeverage products such as medicines, food products, flavors, and perfumes. Manufacturers making such products must file claims proving their eligibility for drawback, and respondents may file such claims either on a monthly or a quarterly basis. To protect the revenue, the IRC also authorizes the Secretary to require persons filing monthly nonbeverage product drawback claims to provide a bond. See 26 U.S.C. 5111–5114. The TTB regulations in 27 CFR parts 17 and 26 require monthly nonbeverage drawback claimants to file such a bond using form TTB F 5154.3. The required bond ensures repayment of paid claims later found to be ineligible for nonbeverage drawback in cases when the claimant is unable to repay the taxes due.

Abstract

CMS-2328-FC requires a transparent, data-driven process for states to document that Medicaid beneficiaries have access to services covered under the Medicaid State plan to the extent that services are available to the general population in a geographic area. To meet the requirements of the final rule, states must conduct access review monitoring plans that measure: the extent that enrollee needs are met, the availability of care and qualified providers, service utilization and payment rate comparisons. The reviews will be conducted every three years for: primary care, physician specialists, behavorial health, and pre and post natal obstetric services (including labor and delivery). As states reduce or restructure provider payment rates or receive significant numbers of complaints from providers and beneficiaires about access to care, additional services must be included in the review plan and monitored for at least 3 years. We are soliciting comments on the services required for ongoing access reviews and the timelines associated with review and monitoring activities. The final rule also requires states have mechanisms for obtaining beneficiary and provider feedback on access to care, such as hotlines, surveys, ombudsman or other equivalent mechanisms and institute corrective action procedures should access issues be discovered through the access review and monitoring processes. Finally, when considering reductions to Medicaid payment rates the final rule requires states to undertake a process that gathers input from stakesholds and relies upon the information analyzed through the data reveiws on the proposed reduction or restructuring of Medicaid service payment rates.

Abstract

In order to ensure the health and safety of the Federal workforce and the efficiency of the civil service, full Coronavirus Disease 2019 Vaccination was made mandatory for all Federal employees, with exceptions only required by law, under Executive Order 14043. Subsequently, a federal court imposed an injunction preventing the federal government from enforcing mandatory vaccination. However, because the Information Collection form for seeking a Reasonable Accommodation to the vaccination had already been approved by OMB for FMSHRC use prior to the court injunction, FMSHRC is seeking to renew the ICR in the event that the injunction is lifted or further COVID-19 vaccinations are required during the period that an approved ICR Renewal would be in effect. In the event that vaccinations may be required, requests for “medical accommodation” or “medical exceptions” will be treated as requests for disability accommodation and evaluated and decided under applicable Rehabilitation Act standards for reasonable accommodation absent undue hardship to the agency. An employee may also request a delay for complying with the vaccination requirement based on certain medical considerations that may not justify an exception under the Rehabilitation Act per guidance provided by the Safer Federal Workforce Task Force.

Abstract

Under sections 1401, 1411, and 1412 of the Affordable Care Act and 45 CFR part 155 subpart D, an Exchange makes an advance determination of tax credit eligibility for individuals who enroll in QHP coverage through the Exchange and seek financial assistance. Using information available at the time of enrollment, the Exchange determines whether the individual meets the income and other requirements for advance payments and the amount of the advance payments that can be used to pay premiums. Advance payments are made periodically under section 1412 of the Affordable Care Act to the issuer of the QHP in which the individual enrolls. Section 1402 of the Affordable Care Act provides for the reduction of cost sharing for certain individuals enrolled in a QHP through an Exchange, and section 1412 of the Affordable Care Act provides for the advance payment of these reductions to issuers. The statute directs issuers to reduce cost sharing for essential health benefits for individuals with household incomes between 100 and 400 percent of the Federal poverty level (FPL) who are enrolled in a silver level QHP through an individual market Exchange and are eligible for advance payments of the premium tax credit. Health insurance issuers will manually enter enrollment and payment data into a Microsoft Excel-based spreadsheet, and submit the information to HHS. The data collection will be used by HHS to make payments or collect charges from issuers under the following programs: advance payments of the premium tax credit, advanced cost-sharing reductions, and Marketplace user fees. HHS will use the information collected to make payments and collect charges in January 2014 and for a number of months thereafter, as may be required based on HHS's operational progress.

Abstract

The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) authorizes drawback (refund) of all but $1.00 per gallon of the Federal excise tax paid on distilled spirits subsequently used in the manufacture of certain nonbeverage products such as medicines, food products, flavors, and perfumes. See 26 U.S.C. 5111–5114. In addition, nonbeverage products produced in the United States and then exported are also eligible for drawback of all excise taxes paid on the distilled spirits used to make those products. See 19 U.S.C. 1313(d). Under the TTB regulations in part 17, a respondent may make an export drawback claim to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for the full amount of tax paid if they have previously made no claim to TTB. Alternatively, a respondent may claim the remaining $1.00 per proof gallon of excise tax paid if they have or will file a claim with TTB under 26 U.S.C. 5114. When a respondent wishes to make a full or partial export drawback claim to CBP, they first submit form TTB F 5100.4, Certificate of Taxpaid Alcohol, to TTB, listing the source and amount of distilled spirits eligible for drawback and the amount of excise taxes claimed. TTB verifies the provided information and certifies on the form that it has issued no previous certificate for the described distilled spirits. As such, the collected information is necessary to ensure that export drawback is provided consistent with the relevant statutory provisions.

Abstract

Regulations 23.701 and 23.704 establish reporting requirements that are mandated by Section 4s(l) of the CEA, which states that SDs and MSPs must notify their counterparties of the right to have their initial margin segregated and to maintain the confirmations and elections related to such notices as business records. The reporting and recordkeeping requirements are necessary to implement the objectives of Section 4s(l). The data required to be compiled and maintained pursuant to regulation 23.701 and 23.704 would be used by uncleared swap counterparties (and, in some instances, the CFTC and self-regulatory organizations). For example, the information received by uncleared swap counterparties pursuant to Regulation 23.701 would alert counterparties to their statutory right, if they so choose, to have funds or property used as margin in uncleared swaps transactions with SDs and MSPs kept segregated from the property of the SD or MSP. Likewise, the information provided would further alert counterparties of the need to request such segregation if they wish to exercise this right.
