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.
Note: Presidential Action influences are notated for ICRs received between January 20, 2025 and July 19, 2025.

DOI Access & Consent Forms
Key Information
Abstract
The Department of the Interior (DOI) developed the DI-4016, Request for Individual Access to Records Protected under the Privacy Act, and DI-4017, Consent for Disclosure of Records Protected under the Privacy Act, forms for individuals to submit requests for accessing, and consenting to the disclosure of, records protected under the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a. The DI-4016, Request for Individual Access to Records Protected under the Privacy Act, form is used by individuals seeking access to their records and any information pertaining to them that are maintained in DOI’s systems of records. The DI-4017, Consent for Disclosure of Records Protected under the Privacy Act, form provides written consent of the individual to whom the record pertains when disclosing records to another person or an agency. The Privacy Act provides that "the parent of any minor, or the legal guardian of any individual who has been declared to be incompetent due to physical or mental incapacity or age by a court of competent jurisdiction, may act on behalf of the individual.” Therefore, these forms may also be used by a parent or legal guardian. These forms were based on the templates provided in the OMB Memorandum M-21-04, Modernizing Access to and Consent for Disclosure of Records Subject to the Privacy Act, issued on November 12, 2020, which implements the requirements of the Creating Advanced Streamlined Electronic Services for Constituents Act of 2019 (“CASES Act”). The CASES Act was issued in an effort to modernize the Privacy Act request process by requiring agencies to accept access and consent forms from individuals properly identity-proofed and authenticated remotely through a digital service option in addition to an agency’s existing process. The CASES Act also requires the forms to be posted on the agency website's privacy program page and the website updated to include instructions on how individuals may submit requests digitally. |

Family Options 12-Year Study: Survey Data Collection – Phase II
Key Information
Abstract
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has invested considerable resources into strategies to address family homelessness. Senate Report 109-109 for the FY 2006 Transportation, Treasury, Judiciary, HUD, and Related Agencies Appropriations bill directed the Department to focus its energies on families who experience homelessness and to “undertake research to ascertain the impact of various service and housing interventions in ending homelessness for families.” In 2008, HUD launched the Family Options Study, a multi-site experiment designed to test the impacts of different housing and service interventions on families who experience homelessness, in five key domains: housing stability, family preservation, adult well-being, child well-being, and self-sufficiency. The study, conducted by Abt Associates and its partner Vanderbilt University, compared the effect of three active interventions—long-term housing subsidy, community-based rapid re-housing, and project-based transitional housing—to one another and to the usual care available in the study communities. From September 2010 through January 2012, 2,282 families (with 5,397 children) across 12 communities enrolled in the Family Options Study after spending at least 7 days in emergency shelter. At the time of enrollment families provided their consent to participate in the study and completed a baseline survey (OMB #2528-0259, Expiration Date: 05/31/2013). The study randomized these 2,282 families to one of four interventions distinguished by the type and duration of housing assistance and supportive services. The research team tracked the families for over three years and administered two separate follow-up surveys to families during that time period under the same OMB control number; a 20-month followup survey (OMB #2528-0259, Expiration Date: 3/31/2015) and a 37-month followup survey (OMB #2528-0259, Expiration Date: 3/31/2017). |

Remote Video Inspection (RVI)
Key Information
Abstract
In the COVID-19 era many Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) and Property Owner Agents (POA) as well as families have been reluctant to conduct or allow the inspectors to conduct physical inspections as additional COVID variants still pose threats. This means that residents may be living in undesirable or unhealthy conditions. To address these potential concerns with minimum risk or exposure or disruption to residents, the Department would like to employ RVI. The RVI protocol is a tool that efficiently allows HUD to provide inspections to those properties that are unable to receive in-person inspections due to COVID. The RVI protocol is a tool that allows HUD to provide oversight to those properties that are unable to receive in-person inspections, including habitability inspections due to national emergencies such as the COVID-19 pandemic. |
