Change Requests

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.

Patents External Quality Survey

Key Information

Abstract

This United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) External Quality Survey is an instrument designed to measure opinions about the services that USPTO provides its patent application customers. The results from this voluntary survey will assist the USPTO in guiding improvements and enhancements in the future. This survey narrows the focus of customer satisfaction to examination quality. It also uses a longitudinal, rotating panel design to assess changes in customer perceptions and to identify key areas for examiner training and opportunities for improvement. The USPTO uses this survey to identify problems with examination quality and works to resolve these issues in a timely manner. The USPTO surveys patent agents, attorneys, and other individuals from large domestic corporations (including those with over 500 employees), small and medium-size businesses, independent inventors, and universities and other non-profit research organizations. This survey does not request responses from foreign entities.

10 CFR 30, Rules of General Applicability to Domestic Licensing of Byproduct Material

Key Information

Abstract

REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR FUSION MACHINES PROPOSED RULE The NRC is proposing to amend its regulations to establish a regulatory framework for the possession, use, and production of byproduct material associated with fusion machines. The proposed rule includes definitions to establish the scope of regulatory requirements for fusion machines and technology-inclusive, content-of-application requirements supportive of a performance-based approach to regulation. The proposed rule includes specific requirements for submitting an application for a license to possess, use, and produce byproduct material associated with a fusion machine. Such applicants may file an application using NRC Form 313, “Applications for Materials License.” The proposed rule would add a requirement for an applicant to submit an environmental report for the construction and operation of a fusion machine unless a categorical exclusion applies. The proposed rule would require applicants or licensees to maintain records of production of tritium and activation products associated with fusion machines. The records and recordkeeping requirements would allow the NRC to determine if the applicant has training, experience, equipment, facilities, and procedures that provide reasonable assurance of adequate protection of public health and safety and the environment. The records and recordkeeping requirements associated with receipt, transfer, production, and disposal of byproduct material would be reviewed by the NRC to determine that licensees have confined their possession and use of byproduct material to the locations, purposes, receipt, and quantities authorized in their licenses. The proposed rule would require that radioactive waste resulting from fusion machines must either be accompanied by an analysis showing the waste is manifested and labeled for disposal consistent with the description of the applicable waste class in [10 CFR] 61.7 of this chapter, based on the physical, chemical, and radiological characteristics of the waste, or be disposed of in a disposal facility that has completed a site-specific intrusion assessment that demonstrates the projected dose to an individual who inadvertently intrudes into the waste at the facility will be less than 0.5 rem (5 (mSv)) per year. The information requested would allow the NRC to determine whether the proposed activities can be conducted safely without harming the common defense and security or constituting an unreasonable risk to public health and safety and the environment. The NRC is proposing to amend its regulations to establish a regulatory framework for licensing the possession, use, and production of byproduct material associated with fusion machines. The NRC is also proposing new guidance for the implementation of this proposed rule, entitled NUREG-1556, Volume 22, “Consolidated Guidance About Materials Licenses: Program-Specific Guidance About Fusion Machine Licenses.”

[NCEZID] Statement in Support of Application for Waiver of Inadmissibility Under Immigration and Nationality Act

Key Information

Abstract

The goal of this collection is to provide CDC with adequate information to fulfill its responsibilities with regard to the processing of applications for waivers of inadmissibility on health-related grounds, specifically mental health disorders with associated harmful behaviors. The information collected is required under U.S. immigration law and regulation. CDC uses the information collected in 0920-0006 to review waiver applications for prospective immigrants and refugees to the United States. CDC assists DHS/USCIS in determining whether or not a prospective immigrant or refugee with a Class A health designation, specifically those mental health disorders with associated harmful behavior, may be admitted into the United States. Non-Substantive Change Request is submitted to make minor format changes including email and mailing addresses. There is no anticipated change to the approved burden hours.

21st Century Community Learning Centers Annual Performance Report

Key Information

Abstract

The purpose of the 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) program, as authorized under Title IV, Part B, of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) (20 U.S.C. 7171-7176) is to create community learning centers that provide academic enrichment opportunities for children, particularly students who attend high poverty and low-performing schools, to meet State and local student standards in core academic subjects, to offer students a broad array of enrichment activities that can complement their regular academic programs, and to offer literacy and other educational services to the families of participating children. Present in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, and the Bureau of Indian Education, academic enrichment and youth development programs are designed to enhance participants- well-being and academic success. The Department of Education (ED) is requesting authorization for an extension to collect data for 21st CCLC programs. The core purpose is to collect information on the performance indicators associated with the 21st CCLC program to report to Congress annually on the implementation and progress of 21st CCLC projects. All elements collected serve to meet the reporting requirements of the GPRAs. These metrics delivered in the form of an Annual Performance Report (APR) are the primary way the federal government determines the success and progress of the 21st CCLC program based on the statutory requirements.

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program: Demonstration Projects

Key Information

Abstract

This is a new information collection request for activities associated with SNAP demonstration projects. Demonstration projects allow State agencies to conduct approved pilot or experimental projects that waive requirements of the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 (the Act) (7 U.S.C. 2011, et seq.) and SNAP regulations to test program changes to improve program administration, increase the self-sufficiency of SNAP recipients, and improve the delivery of benefits to eligible households. Section 17(b) of the Act authorizes the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) to set the terms and conditions for—and oversee the conduct of — demonstration projects proposed by State agencies. The Act limits the provisions that FNS may waive and requires that approved demonstration projects must include an evaluation component. FNS collects information regularly to meet the evaluation component requirements using data reports.

Regulation 16.02 - Daily Trade and Supporting Data Reports

Key Information

Abstract

On July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”) went into effect. Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act amended the Commodity Exchange Act (“CEA”) to create a regulatory framework for swaps. Section 723 of Title VII amended Section 2 of the CEA to provide that rules adopted by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“Commission” or “CFTC”) to implement Section 2 shall provide for the reporting of data relating to both: (i) swaps entered into before the date of enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act, the terms of which have not expired as of the date of enactment of that Act (“pre-enactment swaps”) and (ii) swaps entered into on or after the date of enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act and prior to the compliance date specified in Commission swap data reporting rules implementing Section 2(h)(5)(B) (“transition swaps”). On June 12, 2012, the Commission adopted regulation 46, which imposes recordkeeping and reporting requirements relating to pre-enactment and transition swaps (collectively, “historical swaps”). This renewal addresses existing collections of information required by 17 CFR Part 46. CFTC regulation 46 imposes recordkeeping and reporting requirements, relating to historical swaps, on the following entities: swap dealers (“SDs”), major swap participants (“MSPs”), and counterparties to swaps who are neither SDs nor MSPs (“non-SD/MSP counterparties”). Section 46.2 requires affected entities to keep certain records relating to historical swaps; Section 46.3 requires affected entities to make an initial data report regarding historical swaps to a swap data repository (“SDR”) and make on-going reports to a SDR for certain historical swaps throughout the existence of the swaps; Section 46.11 requires affected entities to report errors and omissions in data previously reported regarding historical swaps to a SDR.

Privacy and Disclosure of Official Records and Information; Availability of Information and Records to the Public

Key Information

Abstract

Under the Privacy and Disclosure of Official Records and Information regulations, SSA has established methods in which the public can consent to and authorize the release of records protected under the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a of the United States Code, and request records accessible through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552. Consent for Release of Records SSA obtains the required consent(s) (with certain exceptions specified by law) from anyone requesting information in SSA systems of records about another individual. We will not release information requested about an individual until we obtain the required consent from that individual. Under the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a(b)), individuals may give SSA written consent to disclose their personal information to a third party of their choosing. In addition, individuals may have multiple needs for the disclosure of their personal information, such as for qualification for a mortgage or preemployment screenings. a. Form SSA-3288 (Consent for Release of Information): Form SSA-3288, is SSA’s preferred paper form for requests for disclosure of information based on the consent of the subject of the record. Respondents can download the SSA-3288 from ssa.gov/forms, obtain a copy at a local SSA field office, or request SSA mail a copy to them directly. Use of this form ensures compliance with SSA consent regulations at 20 CFR 401.100. SSA also collects consent on other writings, including non-SSA forms often used by large employers, that incorporate SSA-approved consent language. b. Form SSA-3288-OP1 (Consent for Disclosure of Records Protected Under the Privacy Act): The Form SSA-3288-OP1 will comply with the CASES Act, OMB M-21-04, and SSA consent regulations at 20 CFR 401.100. The CASES Act directed OMB to develop templates for, among other things, electronic consents for SSA to disclose records protected by the Privacy Act of 1974 to third parties. OMB implemented that statutory directive in memorandum M-21-04. SSA developed the SSA-3288-OP1 pursuant to the CASES Act and M-21-04. The public will access the webform application that populates Form SSA-3288-OP1 on the Internet by selecting the ‘‘Electronic Request for Consent to Disclose’’ link which will be posted at www.ssa.gov/privacy. The respondents are individuals consenting to, authorizing, and requesting SSA disclosure of records protected by the Privacy Act of 1974 to third parties.

Enterprise Scheduling System (ESS) and National Appointment and Scheduling Calendar (NASC)

Key Information

Abstract

The Enterprise Scheduling System (ESS) allows for both customer self-scheduling and technician assisted scheduling through an electronic scheduling tool, while the National Appointment and Scheduling Calendar (NASC) allows for technician-assisted scheduling through the ESS platform for initial claims appointment requests. ESS facilitates both customer self-scheduling and technician scheduling, along with NASC which facilitates technician scheduling, allowing SSA to collect essential information from customers, including their name, Social Security number, zip code, telephone number, and email address. Additionally, customers have the option to consent to electronic messaging or to opt out, as well as specify their preferred method of communication (email or text), language preference, preferred service office, and appointment day and time preferences. SSA uses this information to schedule in-office, phone, or video appointments for processing enumeration, PE actions, or initial claim appointments. Customers scheduling their PE or initial claim appointments through a technician have the option to create a one-time passcode, enabling them to securely update their appointment online. The technician documents this one-time passcode along with the customer's other appointment preferences. Customers begin the process by accessing SSA.gov and engaging an online questionnaire to determine the nature of their business. If applications are available for customers to self-serve, the system routes them to those applications to complete their business. If not, customers are given the option to self schedule an appointment through ESS. If the customer moves forward, the system directs them to create a credential using Login.gov or ID.me. Once they complete credentialing, customers access ESS to complete required screens and fields to select a date and time for an appointment with an SSA field office (FO) to provide the proofs necessary to obtain a replacement or original SSN card or complete a PE action. Upon completing the required screens and fields, the system presents customers with a screen to review and submit all of the data they input regarding the requested appointment. If customers encounter issues with ESS, or they need to request an appointment type which requires technician assistance (e.g., scheduling, rescheduling, or cancelling PE or initial claims appointments), they may contact SSA by phone to have an FO or Telephone Service Center (TSC) technician schedule their appointment. Technicians follow existing processes and policies to identify the caller as a legitimate customer, and converse with the customer to determine the nature of their business and if they require an appointment. If the technician determines the customer needs an appointment, the technician accesses ESS and completes the required screens and fields for the enumeration or PE appointment, or NASC for an initial claim appointment. Once the technician completes the ESS or NASC screens, the technician can review all of the information the customer provided with the customer. If the customer indicates it is correct the technician submits and schedules the appointment. We conduct this information collection each time a customer accesses the online tool or contacts SSA by phone to schedule an appointment. The respondents are individuals looking to schedule their SSA visit, either through self-scheduling or technician assisted modalities, using ESS and NASC.

CY 2026 Proposed Requirements for Hospitals to Make Public a List of Their Standard Charges (CMS-10707)

Key Information

Abstract

In the 2026 IPPS/LTCH PPS proposed rule, we propose amendments to the HPT regulations to enhance clarity and standardization in hospital pricing disclosures. Specifically, we propose revisions to § 180.20 to remove the definition for "estimated allowed amount" and add definitions for "median allowed amount", “tenth percentile allowed amount”, and "ninetieth percentile allowed amount", to help ensure greater precision in cost sharing calculations. Furthermore, we propose revisions to § 180.50 to require hospitals, beginning January 1, 2026, to disclose the median, tenth and ninetieth percentile allowed amounts in MRFs when standard charges are based on percentages or algorithms, as well as the count of allowed amounts. We also propose that hospitals should use EDI 835 transaction remittance data to calculate and encode these values, and we propose specific instructions to hospitals with regard to the methodology, including lookback period, that should be used to calculate the median, tenth and ninetieth percentile allowed amounts. We propose revisions to § 180.50(a)(3) to replace the affirmation statement in the MRF with an attestation statement that would also contain new specifications (relative to existing affirmation requirements) and to require hospitals to encode the name of the chief executive officer, president or senior official designated to oversee the encoding of true, accurate and complete data in the MRF. Additionally, we propose adding a standard identifier, specifically the National Provider Identifier (NPI) to the MRFs.

Generic Performance Progress Reports

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection request (ICR) is for data collection under the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Generic Program-Specific Performance Progress Report (PPR) (0970-0490). This overarching generic has allowed ACF program offices to collect performance and progress data from recipients who receive funding from ACF under a discretionary award. This information is required under 45 CFR 75.342, monitoring and reporting program performance; 45 CFR 75.301, performance measurement; and the GPRA Modernization Act of 2010 (Pub.L. 111-352, Sec 12). In January 2025, the current Administration released multiple Executive Orders (EO) and memoranda requiring updates to information collections that request gender and/or gender identity, to only request “Sex” with the options Male/Female. Additionally, presidential actions focused on the removal of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI)-specific activities. To be responsive to the new administration, ACF is submitting change requests for a number of implicated information collections. This request is specific to updates related to a recent presidential action, as detailed in the accompanying Justification for a NonSubstantive Change Memo.

NDAR Data Access Request (NIMH)

Key Information

Abstract

The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) is requesting approval of this revision application for three years (36 months). This application aims to obtain approvals for the revised Data Submission Agreement (DSA) and Data Use Certification (DUC) information collection documents, which collect information about researchers submitting data and requesting access to shared data in the NIMH Data Archive (NDA). The NDA is an infrastructure for sharing human subjects research data and tools to further collaboration and scientific discovery. While the NDA is a single system, it is comprised of several research domains each with their own associated permission group. The information collected in the DSA and DUC is needed to provide appropriate permissions to either submit or access data, monitor the expiration of these permissions, track and report on permissions and requests, ensure that the terms of submission/access are followed, and provide appropriate attribution for data contributions, and communicate important information about the NDA.

Federal Subsistence Regulations and Associated Forms, 43 CFR 51

Key Information

Abstract

The Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act (ANILCA) mandates that rural residents of Alaska receive priority for subsistence uses of fish and wildlife. In 1989, the Alaska Supreme Court ruled that ANILCA's rural priority violated the Alaska Constitution. As a result, the Federal Government manages subsistence uses on Federal public lands and waters in Alaska--about 230 million acres or 60 percent of the land within the State. Title VIII of ANILCA (16 U.S.C. 3111-3126) designates the Departments of the Interior and Agriculture as the key agencies responsible for implementing the subsistence priority on Federal public lands. To help carry out subsistence management responsibilities, the Secretaries of the Interior and Agriculture established the Federal Subsistence Management Program. Regulations implementing the Federal Subsistence Management Program on Federal public lands within Alaska are in the Code of Federal Regulations (50 CFR 100 and 36 CFR 242). The Federal Subsistence Management Program is a multi-agency effort to provide the opportunity for a subsistence way of life by rural Alaskans on Federal public lands and waters while maintaining healthy populations of fish and wildlife. Subsistence fishing and hunting provide a large share of the food consumed in rural Alaska. The State's rural residents harvest about 22,000 tons of wild foods each year--an average of 375 pounds per person. Fish make up about 60 percent of this harvest Statewide.Emergency Justfication:Please see attached "Justification for Emergency Clearance" uploaded as a supplemental document.
