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.

The Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) was enacted in order to provide full and fair disclosure with respect to publicly offered securities and to prevent fraud in connection with such offerings. The Securities Act carries out this purpose by requiring the filing of a registration statement in connection with public distributions of securities by issuers and their control persons. Schedule A of the Securities Act specifies the general types of information that must be disclosed in registration statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”). The Commission has authority, under Section 19 of the Securities Act, to promulgate rules to carry out the provisions of the Securities Act. Form S-1 (17 CFR 239.11) is a general registration form used to register the public offering of securities under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”). Form S-1 may be used for the registration under the Securities Act of securities of all registrants for which no other form is authorized or prescribed, except that this Form shall not be used for securities of foreign governments or political subdivisions thereof or asset-backed securities. The information collected is intended to ensure the adequacy of information available to investors in connection with securities offerings. |

Key Information
Authorizing Statutes
15 USC 77c, 77f, 77g, 77h, 77j (View Law) 15 USC 77s(a), 77z-3 (View Law) 15 USC 78c(b), 78l, 78m, 78o(d) (View Law) 15 USC 78w(a), 78mm (View Law) Abstract
The Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”) was designed to prevent misrepresentation, deceit and other fraudulent acts and practices in the sale of securities. Section 5 of the Securities Act requires that a registration statement be filed before any security is publicly offered, and that the registration statement be effective before any security is sold. Section 7 of the Securities Act and Schedule A outlines the information that must be contained in a registration statement. Section 7 gives the Commission the authority to vary such disclosure for various classes of issuers and securities. The Commission has used its statutory authority to develop a number of specialized registration statement forms that tailor disclosure requirements based on the type of offering, issuer, or other parameters, thereby eliminating burdensome and unnecessary requirements while maintaining investor protection. Form S-3 (17 CFR 239.13) is a short-form securities registration statement that is available to issuers that meet certain registrant and transaction eligibility requirements under the form. The purpose of the information collection is to provide disclosure of material financial and other information with which investors may evaluate the merits of securities in order to make investment decisions. |

| 202512-0938-004 | CAHPS Home Health Care Survey (CMS-10275) | HHS/CMS | 2025-12-02 | Received in OIRA | Revision of a currently approved collection
CAHPS Home Health Care Survey (CMS-10275)
Key Information
Abstract
As part of the DHHS Transparency Initiative on Quality Reporting, CMS plans to implement a process to measure and publicly report patients' experiences with home health care they receive from Medicare-certified home health agencies through the data collection effort described in this request: the Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS) Home Health Care Survey. The Home Health Care CAHPS Survey, which was developed and tested by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) and is part of the family of CAHPS surveys, is a standardized survey for home health patients to assess their home health care providers and the quality of the home health care they receive. Prior to the Home Health Care CAHPS survey, there was no national standard for collecting data about home health care patients' experience with their home health care. This is a revision to the original PRA package which covered the voluntary implementation of the survey among Medicare-certified agencies and a randomized mode experiment to test the impact of different modes of data collection on survey responses. This is a revised PRA package because it now includes the burden to the home health agencies (HHAs) to contract with an approved HHCAHPS survey vendor to administer the HHCAHPS survey on their behalf. |

Assessing the Fit and Comfort of Motorcycle Safety Gear
Key Information
Abstract
NHTSA seeks approval from OMB for a new information collection request to assess the fit, comfort, and preference of motorcyclists’ safety gear. The proposed study aims to address the pressing need to understand the relationship between the fit and comfort of personal protective motorcycle gear and the decision to use gear. This information collection will be a one-time voluntary collection involving assessments of motorcycle safety gear (i.e., footwear, gloves, helmets, jackets, and pants). In 2022, there were 6,218 motorcyclists killed in traffic crashes, comprising 15 percent of all traffic fatalities and 19 percent of all motor vehicle occupant (driver and passenger) fatalities, representing a fatality rate per vehicle miles traveled nearly 22 times that of passenger car occupants. These findings demonstrate the inherent risk of motorcycle riding and highlight the importance of wearing personal protective gear. Nonetheless, not all motorcyclists use gear on every ride. There are many reasons why a motorcycle rider may not wear protective gear, such as a sense of “personal freedom,” “It’s more fun to ride without a helmet,” skepticism about the protective value of helmets, and the discomfort of wearing a helmet. Even when protective gear is worn, ill-fitting gear or improperly worn gear could compromise protection. NHTSA provides specific information on its website about finding the right fit and identifying unsafe helmets, but the extent to which motorcyclists wear helmets that fit and are worn safely is unknown. Additionally, the requirements for an effective fit may vary by the type of motorcycle, riding style, and riding positions. To encourage greater and proper usage of protective gear, it is crucial to understand the factors contributing to non-adherence to safety recommendations. NHTSA is conducting this study to investigate riders' beliefs, attitudes, and perceptions regarding gear fit and comfort, and to assess the fit and comfort of gear in use. The study plans to screen 1,250 riders to reach the targeted 625 study participants with an equal number of riders of standard, cruiser, sport and adventure/touring motorcycles, and seated motor scooters; gather information about the protective gear the riders use; and assess the fit and comfort of the gear. Participation will be voluntary and anonymous. Participants will be recruited at locations where riders gather such as rallies, and other organized social or training events. Study staff will observe gear worn by riders, assess the fit of one type of protective gear (i.e., footwear, gloves, helmet, jacket, or pants) per participant, and ask riders for their opinions about the fit and comfort of the protective gear type of interest (one type of gear per participant). Additionally, study staff will use a tablet to show participants a series of images of examples of the protective gear type of interest that range in protective value (e.g., half helmet, full-face helmet); the examples will include a description of the item (e.g., composition material, ventilation/waterproof features) but not the brand name. Participants will rate each example in terms of its perceived protection and the likelihood they would use or purchase it. The intention of this collection is to learn about the experiences and perceptions of riders regarding protective gear. The collected information will inform NHTSA’s development of programs as it looks for ways to improve rider safety while still prioritizing rider comfort to ensure riding remains an enjoyable experience. NHTSA will use the collected information to produce a technical report with aggregate (summary) statistics and tables only; no personally identifiable information will be retained or reported. The technical report will be distributed to audiences interested in improving highway safety. |

Generic Clearance for Federal Student Aid Customer Satisfaction Surveys and Focus Groups Master Plan
Key Information
Abstract
The Higher Education Amendments of 1998 established Federal Student Aid (FSA) as the first Performance-Based Organization (PBO). One purpose of the PBO is to improve service to students and other participants in the student financial assistance programs authorized under title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, including making those programs more understandable to students and their parents. To do that, FSA has committed to ensuring that all people receive service that matches or exceeds the best service available in the private sector. Requirements of the legislation establish an on-going need for FSA to be engaged in an interactive process of collecting information and using it to improve program services and processes. The use of customer surveys and focus groups allows FSA to gather that information from the affected parties in a timely manner to improve communications with our product users. |
