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.

2026-2027 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)

Key Information

Abstract

Section 483 of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA), mandates that the Secretary of Education “…shall produce, distribute, and process free of charge common financial reporting forms as described in this subsection to be used for application and reapplication to determine the need and eligibility of a student for financial assistance...”. The determination of need and eligibility are for the following Title IV, HEA, federal student financial assistance programs: the Federal Pell Grant Program; the Campus-Based programs (Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) and Federal Work-Study (FWS)); the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan (Direct Loan) Program; the Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grant; and the Children of Fallen Heroes Scholarship. Federal Student Aid (FSA), an office of the U.S. Department of Education (the Department), subsequently developed an application process to collect and process the data necessary to determine a student’s eligibility to receive Title IV, HEA program assistance. The application process involves an applicant’s submission of the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®). After submission and processing of the FAFSA form, an applicant receives a FAFSA Submission Summary, which is a summary of the processed data they submitted on the FAFSA form. The applicant reviews the summary, and, if necessary, will make corrections or updates to their submitted FAFSA data. Institutions of higher education listed by the applicant on the FAFSA form also receive a summary of processed data submitted on the FAFSA form, which is called the Institutional Student Information Record (ISIR). The specific questions that applicants are asked to answer in the application process are described separately in the Data Elements and Justification document. The document identifies the data elements associated with each FAFSA question and provides the justification for including each question on the FAFSA form. In addition to the calculation of financial need for the various Title IV programs, the FAFSA form also collects data that allows for a determination of an applicant’s eligibility for state and institutional financial aid programs. If these data elements were not collected, the Department and institutions of higher education would be unable to make a determination of financial need and subsequently would be unable to award any Title IV, HEA program assistance, as mandated by the HEA. Many states would also be greatly hindered in their calculation of state aid to applicants. This is a request for revisions of a current information collection, and important changes to the FAFSA form are described separately in the 2026-27 Summary of Enhancements document.Emergency Justfication:The OBBBA was signed into law on July 4, 2025. The Act made changes to the FAFSA for the 2026-27 award year. The Department would not have been able to make these changes prior to the enactment of the OBBBA. Because of this, obtaining full OMB clearance to use the most accurate version of the FAFSA prior to FAFSA beta testing and FAFSA launch would not be possible. The FAFSA form is scheduled to be launched by October 1,2025 for the 2026-2027 award year. Without emergency review of an updated FAFSA form, beta testing and the launch of the FAFSA would be delayed. This means that students would not be able to complete a FAFSA form to determine eligibility for federal student aid. Institutions of higher education would not be able to package aid for their students until their students’ FAFSA forms have been processed. These delays would cause the FAFSA form to not be available to the public on time. Applicants and schools rely on the on-time launch of the FAFSA form each year. Delays could impact institutional enrollment projections, student enrollment, and student decisions to apply for federal student aid.

Abstract

This information collection supports implementation of sections 351 and 361 of the Public Health Service Act (PHS Act) (42 U.S.C. 262 and 264) and certain drug provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 301 et seq.), regarding xenotransplantation. As set forth in the “PHS Guideline on Infectious Disease Issues in Xenotransplantation,” guidelines were developed by the Public Health Service (PHS) to identify general principles for the prevention and control of infectious diseases associated with xenotransplantation that may pose a risk to public health. The PHS guideline recommends procedures to diminish the risk of transmission of infectious agents to the xenotransplantation product recipient and to the general public.

Stem Cell Therapeutic Outcomes Database

Key Information

Abstract

The Stem Cell Therapeutic and Research Act of 2005 (Public Law 109-129, December 20, 2005) as amended and codified in Section 379A of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 247l), provides for the collection and maintenance of human blood stem cells for the treatment of patients and research. The Public Health Service Act requires the Secretary of HHS to contract for the establishment and maintenance of information related to patients who have received stem cell therapeutic products and to do so using an electronic format. HRSA has established the Stem Cell Therapeutic Outcomes Database (SCTOD), a component of the C.W. Bill Young Cell Transplantation Program (Program), which necessitates certain electronic record-keeping and reporting requirements to perform functions related to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) under contract to HHS. Data are collected from transplant centers by the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research. They are used for ongoing analysis of transplant outcomes to improve treatment and survival for patients who may benefit from cellular therapies.

Nuclear Material Events Database (NMED) for the Collection of Event Report, Response, Analyses, and Follow-up Data on Events Involving the Use of Atomic Energy Act Radioactive Byproduct Material

Key Information

Abstract

NRC regulations require NRC licensees to report incidents and over exposures, leaking or contaminated sealed source(s), release of excessive contamination of radioactive material, lost or stolen radioactive material, equipment failures, abandoned well logging sources and medical events. Agreement State licenses are also required to report these events to their individual Agreement State regulatory authorities under compatible Agreement State regulations. The NRC is requesting that the Agreement States provide information to NRC on the initial notification, response actions, and follow-up investigations on events involving the use (including suspected theft or terrorist activities) of nuclear materials regulated pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act. The event information should be provided in a uniform electronic format, for assessment and identification of any facilities/site specific or generic safety concerns that could have the potential to impact public health and safety. The identification and review of safety concerns may result in lessons learned, and may also identify generic issues for further study which could result in proposals for changes or revisions to technical or regulatory designs, processes, standards, guidance or requirements.

Loans in Areas Having Special Flood Hazards

Key Information

Abstract

The National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 (1968 Act) and the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 (FDPA), as amended, (collectively referenced herein as the Federal flood insurance statutes) govern the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). These laws make Federally subsidized flood insurance available to owners of improved real estate or mobile homes located in participating communities and require the purchase of flood insurance in connection with a loan made by a regulated lending institution when the loan is secured by improved real estate or a mobile home located in a special flood hazard area (SFHA) in which flood insurance is available under the NFIP. The laws specify the amount of insurance that must be purchased and also require that such insurance be maintained for the term of the loan. (The requirement for flood insurance, and the term and amounts of such coverage, are hereinafter described as “the flood insurance purchase requirement). The OCC, Board, FDIC, FCA, and NCUA (collectively, the Agencies) each have issued regulations implementing these statutory requirements for the lending institutions they supervise. Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012 (Biggert-Waters Act) amends the Federal flood insurance statutes that the Agencies have authority to implement and enforce. Among other things, the Biggert-Waters Act: (1) requires the Agencies to issue a rule regarding the escrow of premiums and fees for flood insurance; (2) clarifies the requirement to force place insurance; and (3) requires the Agencies to issue a rule to direct regulated lending institutions to accept “private flood insurance,” as defined by the Biggert-Waters Act, and to notify borrowers of the availability of private flood insurance.

The FFIEC 002 must be submitted quarterly by U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks. The report requests detailed schedules of assets and liabilities as a condition report with a variety of supporting schedules. This information is used to fulfill the agencies’ supervisory and regulatory requirements pursuant to the International Banking Act of 1978 (IBA). In addition, the Board uses the information collected by the FFIEC 002 to conduct monetary and financial analysis essential for the conduct of monetary policy. The FFIEC 002S is a mandatory supplement to the FFIEC 002 that collects information on assets and liabilities of any non-U.S. branch that is managed or controlled by a U.S. branch or agency of a foreign bank.1 A separate FFIEC 002S supplement is completed by the managing or controlling U.S. branch or agency for each applicable foreign branch. The FFIEC 002S collects data on U.S. deposits, credit, and international indebtedness, and assists U.S. bank supervisors in determining the assets managed or controlled by the U.S. agency or branch of the foreign bank.

Part C and Part D Medicare Prescription Payment Plan Model Documents (CMS-10882) - IRA

Key Information

Abstract

The purpose of this information collection request for the approval of model documents for the Medicare Prescription Drug Program (Part D) is to meet the requirements of Section 11202 of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, Public L. 117-169 (IRA), which established the Medicare Prescription Payment Plan Program. Under this program, MA Organizations offering Part D coverage and Part D sponsors are required to offer enrollees the option to pay their Part D cost sharing in monthly amounts spread out over the plan year based on the formula described in section 1860D-2(b)(2)(E)(iv) of the Act. There are several education and outreach requirements for plan sponsors related to implementation of this program. The proposed documents in this information collection are designed to assist Part D plan sponsors and MA organizations in complying with Sections 1860D-2(b)(2)(E)(v)(II) – (IV) of the Social Security Act (the Act), which set forth the education and outreach responsibilities for Part D sponsors and MA organizations for this program. CMS has developed the six materials in the attached package as model notices to provide standardized and consistent language for potential and active program participants, regardless of which Part D plan they may be enrolled in. CMS will require Part D plans to disseminate these notices, as appropriate, to Part D enrollees to fulfill the requirements of the Sections 1860D-2(b)(2)(E)(v)(II) – (IV) of the Act. The six model notices and their related burden are accounted for in this PRA package. By providing these model notices, CMS is providing standardized messaging for all Part D beneficiaries and reducing administrative burden on Part D sponsors and MA organizations.

FERC-725E: Mandatory Reliability Standards for the Western Electric Coordinating Council (RD25-6) (BAL-004-WECC-4)

Key Information

Abstract

FERC-725E is the information collection that is required to implement the statutory provisions of section 215 of the Federal Power Act (FPA) (16 U.S.C. 824o). Section 215 of the FPA buttresses the Commission's efforts to strengthen the reliability of the interstate grid through the grant of new authority by providing for a system of mandatory Reliability Standards developed by the Electric Reliability Organization (ERO). The FERC 725E information collection pertains specifically to the Western Electric Coordinating Council (WECC). WECC promotes bulk electric system reliability in the Western Interconnection. WECC is the Regional Entity responsible for compliance monitoring and enforcement. In addition, WECC provides an environment for the development of Reliability Standards and the coordination of the operating and planning activities of its members as set forth in the WECC Bylaws. There are several regional Reliability Standards in the WECC region. These regional Reliability Standards generally require entities to document compliance with substantive requirements, retain documentation, and submit reports to WECC. In RD24-2-000, standard VAR-501-WECC-3.1 is being updated for syntax and the proposed changes have been deemed non-substantive. The currently approved VAR-501-WECC-3.1 is being replaced by VAR-501-WECC-4. The changes include updates to document numbering, the removal and replacement of obsolete language, and removal of redundant language. For the purposes of the extension, the following standards will remain unchanged: BAL-002-WECC-3 (Contingency Reserve) - requires balancing authorities and reserve sharing groups to document compliance with the contingency reserve requirements described in the standard. BAL-004-WECC-3 (Automatic Time Error Correction) - requires balancing authorities to document that time error corrections and primary inadvertent interchange payback were conducted according to the requirements in the standard. FAC-501-WECC-2 (Transmission Maintenance) - requires transmission owners with certain transmission paths to have a transmission maintenance and inspection plan and to document maintenance and inspection activities according to the plan. IRO-006-WECC-3 (Qualified Transfer Path Unscheduled Flow (USF) Relief) - requires balancing authorities and reliability coordinators to document actions taken to mitigate unscheduled flow. VAR-501-WECC-4 (Power System Stabilizers (PSS)) requires the Western Interconnection is operated in a coordinated manner under normal and abnormal conditions by establishing the performance criteria for WECC power system stabilizers.

Donor Certification Form

Key Information

Abstract

The Department of the Interior and its bureaus (Department or DOI) has various authorities that permit the acceptance of donations or gifts in furtherance of resource conservation projects and other programs. Before accepting a donation, DOI must first evaluate whether or not the circumstances of the donation maintain the integrity of the Department's programs and operations, the impartiality of the Department, and public confidence in the Department. Prior to enacting the Donations Policy, DOI conducted a risk analysis in which $25,000 was determined to be the threshold above which there was a greater risk of possible legal or ethical questions associated with donations. Therefore, for donations valued at $25,000 or more, donors are requested to complete a DI-3680 Donor Certification form (DI-3680 form) to provide information clarifying business and legal interactions with the Department and consistency with the Donations Policy prior to acceptance.
