Every time the government makes a change to a survey or a form — or introduces a new survey or form — you have the right to weigh in on that decision.
If you want to tell the government what you think about the changes they are making, follow these steps:
- Click on the name of the survey or form.
The link will bring you to a listing in the "Federal Register" — a daily newsletter filled with the government's regulations, surveys, forms, public meetings, and other actions
- Skim the listing to find instructions on how to submit a comment.
For most listings, this information will be found in a section titled "Addresses"
- Write in to tell the government what you think!
Most listings allow you to either:
- Send an email to the point of contact for that survey or form
- Send your thoughts to the agency or the White House through the reginfo.gov website

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-11-09 | E-Appeal/MSPB Appeal Form | MSPB | MSPB is revising the form federal employees use to appeal personnel actions to reflect recent changes to its regulations. Among other changes, the form removes termination during a probationary or initial service period and negative suitability determinations as appeal categories, narrows the reduction-in-force category to Foreign Service actions, and adds failure to restore an employee following military service or a compensable workplace injury. The changes implement regulatory revisions that took effect September 2 rather than independently changing employees’ appeal rights. | Federal Government |
| 2026-11-09 | NTIA Internet Use Survey | DOC/NTIA | NTIA is seeking public input on a redesign of the Internet Use Survey, the long-running supplement to the Current Population Survey that provides detailed national data on internet access and use. NTIA is considering updates to reflect changes in technology, including AI, connected devices, and how people use the internet, while trying to preserve useful historical comparisons. Importantly, the agency is specifically asking data users which existing questions should remain unchanged, which are important to research and policymaking, what language is outdated, what new questions should be added, and what data are needed to evaluate federal broadband programs. | Science and Technology |
| 2026-11-09 | BOH Workforce Performance Data Collection | HHS/HRSA | HRSA is proposing new reporting requirements for children's hospitals receiving federal graduate medical education funding that would specifically track their involvement in gender-affirming care for minors. Hospitals would report whether they offer this care, whether their curricula include it, and how many people receive training related to it. HHS uses the administration's stigmatizing term “sex rejecting procedures and services” for the care throughout the proposed collection. The change would give HHS new hospital-level information about where gender-affirming care is provided and where health professionals are being trained to provide it, amid the administration's broader efforts to restrict the care and scrutinize providers. | LGBTQI+ |
| 2026-11-09 | Survey of Health Care Providers To Advance Pregnancy Safety Data Collection and Improve Health Communications | HHS/FDA | FDA is proposing a new survey of health care providers to understand why pregnancy exposure registries often struggle to enroll enough patients to produce useful information about medication safety during pregnancy. The study will survey 400 physicians, midwives, physician assistants, pharmacists, and other providers who routinely care for pregnant patients about their awareness and use of pregnancy registries, barriers to referring and enrolling patients, and ideas for improving participation. FDA plans to use the findings to improve pregnancy safety data collection and inform guidance for organizations designing these registries, ultimately helping fill gaps in evidence about the safety of medications during pregnancy. | Reproductive Justice |
| 2026-11-10 | 2026 National Survey of Victim Service Providers | DOJ/BJS | BJS is reinstating the NSVSP, last conducted in 2019, to produce national data on organizations serving victims of crime and abuse. The 2026 survey will collect information from roughly 3,600 active providers on the types of victimization they address, services they provide, the size and composition of their workforce, and their preparedness to respond to mass-violence incidents. | Violence |
| 2026-11-13 | Application for Waiver of Grounds of Inadmissibility | DHS/USCIS | USCIS is revising Form I-601, which people use to seek waivers of certain grounds that would otherwise make them inadmissible to the United States, including in some Temporary Protected Status cases. USCIS has not provided information in this notice explaining what is changing on the form. | Immigration |
| 2026-11-13 | Petition for Amerasian, Widow(er), or Special Immigrant | DHS/USCIS | USCIS is revising Form I-360, which is used by several groups seeking immigration benefits, including certain widows and widowers, survivors of domestic violence, abused children and parents, religious workers, Special Immigrant Juveniles, and certain Afghan and Iraqi nationals who assisted the U.S. government. USCIS has not provided information in this notice explaining what is changing on the form. | Immigration |
| 2026-11-13 | Immigrant Petition by Standalone Investor, Immigrant Petition by Regional Center Investor | DHS/USCIS | USCIS is revising Forms I-526 and I-526E, which immigrant investors use to petition for permanent residence through the EB-5 program, including investments through regional centers. USCIS has not provided information in this notice explaining what is changing on the forms. | Immigration |
| 2026-11-13 | Application for Provisional Unlawful Presence Waiver | DHS/USCIS | USCIS is revising Form I-485, the application people use to apply for lawful permanent resident status (a green card) from within the United States. USCIS has not provided information in this notice explaining what is changing on the form. | Immigration |
| 2026-11-16 | Current Population Survey, Annual Social and Economic Supplement | DOC/Census | Census is planning a major 2027 field test of the CPS ASEC, the source of official national poverty estimates and major data on income and health insurance. For the first time, Census will test allowing people to complete the ASEC online themselves rather than only through an interviewer, as part of a broader CPS modernization planned for 2027–2029. Because converting an interviewer-administered survey to internet self-response requires changes throughout the questionnaire, Census will test whether the new format and revised questions produce comparable estimates of poverty, income, health insurance, and other measures. About 50,000 households will participate. | Economic Justice |
| 2026-11-16 | National Survey on Drug Use and Health | HHS/SAMHSA | SAMHSA is proposing several changes to the 2027 NSDUH, a major federal source of data on substance use and mental health. The survey would add questions about use of GLP-1 medications and several types of psychiatric medications, use of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline and other crisis services, and reinstate questions about workplace drug and alcohol testing. SAMHSA would also change how it measures use of multiple substances by focusing on substances used within the same 30-day period, along with several smaller changes intended to improve or update existing drug-use questions. | Drug Use |
| 2026-12-01 | Heightened Import Disclosures for Supply Chain Visibility | DHS/CBP | CBP is exploring a major expansion of the data collected on goods imported into the United States, including foreign customs records and more detailed identifiers for manufacturers, shippers, exporters, and other supply-chain participants. The agency is also considering replacing or supplementing its existing manufacturer identifier with standardized global business identifiers and integrating the new information into AI and other supply-chain tracing systems. The notice raises broader data questions about entity identification, data quality and verification, interoperability with existing federal trade systems, and confidentiality. | Economy |
