Information Collection Request (ICR) Tracker

ICR Definition

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, modify, or discontinue 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.

Abstract

This request is for a revision to the Information Collection Request (ICR) under Office of Management and Budget (OMB) #: 0970 – 0576. This information collection was originally related to a larger project, the Evaluation of the Child Welfare Capacity Building Collaborative, by the Children’s Bureau (CB) in the Administration on Children, Youth and Families (ACYF), Administration for Children and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The original request and approval included thirty-five instruments. Most of that effort was concluded. This request seeks to extend the approval period for just three of the originally approved instruments to allow CB to continue to administer data collection instruments and procedures for the Academies and Workshops that are provided by the grant/technical assistance (TA) provider to court improvement programs (CIP) and the legal and judicial community. The Center for Legal and Judicial Innovation and Advancement (CLJIA) is the current provider, continuing to provide these services, which were previously provided by the Capacity Building Center for Courts (CBCC). The data collection is necessary to provide ongoing evaluation of the Academies and Workshops to inform continuous quality improvement (CQI) for these ongoing services. The three instruments have not changed except that the name of the grant/technical assistance provider was changed from CBCC to CLJIA. Additionally, burden estimates were updated to reflect the estimated number of new service recipients. CLJIA is currently planning new services and evaluation plans and related information collections that are subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) will be submitted through a separate OMB ICR when ready.

Abstract

HRSA aims to increase delivery of evidence-based interventions that enhance client outcomes, increase the skill level of the HIV workforce providing care and treatment to Women, Infants, Children and Youth (WICY), and involve partnerships for dissemination of best practices to Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Part D participants. To that end, HRSA seeks to implement a Communities of Practice (CoP) platform for RWHAP Part D recipients. A CoP engages recipient teams in improvement learning sessions using subject matter experts along with application experts who help recipient teams select, test and implement changes on the front line of care. Through organizational self-assessments, didactic learning on specific care topics, goals setting and work plan development, each team can strategically benefit their organization. CoPs afford participants the opportunity to work in a group to solve a recognized challenge related to a CoP domain and support dialogue among participants and the consultant/subject matter experts. Recipient teams commit to working over a period of 12 months, alternating between Learning Sessions in which teams come together to learn about the chosen topic and to plan changes, and Action Periods in which the teams return to their respective organizations and test those changes in their clinic settings. The domains for the proposed CoPs are trauma informed care, pre-conception counseling and youth transitioning into adult HIV care services.

Abstract

The American Relief Act, 2025 provides $250 million in supplemental Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) funding for necessary expenses directly related to the consequences of major disasters and emergencies declared pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq.) occurring in 2023 and 2024. The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) determined that these funds will be used for child care recovery grants to state, territory, and Tribal Lead Agencies administering the CCDF program in areas affected by those disasters and emergencies. ACF is required to distribute the child care disaster supplemental funding to eligible states, territories, and Tribes based on assessed need, notwithstanding the allotment formula set forth in the CCDBG Act. This information collection is necessary to solicit applications from eligible jurisdictions that describe the need for funding to address impacts of the disasters or emergencies. The Office of Child Care (OCC) plans to distribute the funds by the end of Federal Fiscal Year 2025 so that impacted jurisdictions can begin the process of rebuilding child care. This nonsubstantive change request updates dates based on timing of approval.

Why They Are Important

ICRs play a vital role in ensuring transparency and accountability in federal data collection. When federal agencies collect information from 10 or more "persons" (which includes individuals, businesses, and state, local, and tribal governments), they must submit an ICR to ensure that it fulfills their statutory missions, avoids unnecessary or duplicative requests, and minimizes burden on the American public. Additionally, Federal Register Notices (FRNs) and the opportunity for public comments provide a formal way for the public to be informed of proposed ICRs and participate in the process.

ICRs also serve as a key resource for tracking changes to federal data collections. The availability of detailed documentation, such as data collection instruments and methodologies, allows the general public to identify revisions in a timely manner. These may include revisions prompted by Executive Orders or statistical policies like OMB's Statistical Policy Directive No. 15 (SPD 15), which are often submitted as "nonsubstantive" or "nonmaterial" changes to a currently approved collection.[1] Furthermore, ICRs can help determine if a data collection has expired without renewal or has been intentionally discontinued. By reviewing ICRs, the public can better understand what data is being collected, how it evolves over time, and whether data collections have become inactive–often in response to shifting priorities and updated standards.

How To Use The Tool

The ICR tracking tool offers a user-friendly view of ICRs that have been recently submitted, reviewed, or are nearing expiration. By aggregating key data from individual ICRs, the tool allows users to view the current status of each request, including submission, conclusion, and expiration dates, details on whether any changes were made, authorizing statutes, and more. Users can search for specific information and filter results based on various criteria. If seeking additional information, various text fields are hyperlinked to the full ICR on RegInfo.gov and associated resources. The tool is updated on a daily basis to reflect the most current information available. Column descriptions are available below the table.
